visit visa requirements from pakistan

[josh2011]

Hi All,

I m new to this forum, i m a Pakistani living in Canada with my husband and son. I m PR. My hubby is citizen here. i moved here few months back. I want my sister to visit me here. she is unmarried and completed her studies.

So, what i need to know is: in this case what type of documents must be provided to strengthen her case. and to increase the chances of getting visit visa?
what sort of bank statements from both sides r needed? and how much balance must be shown in that?
Do she also needs her bank statement in her name in pak?
Also any other advice will be appreciated.
anyother having same case, plz share ur experience.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think the visit visa requirements for Pakistan are really any different than elsewhere.

You should show ties to your home country to demonstrate that you are only coming to Canada for a visit and don't plan to stay long term. Proof could be: bank accounts, property ownership, rental agreements, business papers, letter from employer, proof of immediate family (spouse, children, parents) in home country.

I believe it's generally good to show $1K for every month you plan to visit. Ideally these funds should be in a bank account that is in the visitor's name.

Hopefully others will answer and provide additional information.
