Visitor Visa Renewal Rejected

[24shm]

I hold PR status here, yet my siblings visa applications were still rejected. My sister runs a business back home, and my brother is in high school.
They previously had valid visas and visited me once, but their visas expired two years ago.
In this recent application, they indicated a two-week visit only. My sister submitted a bank statement showing CAD 11k along with other investment funds.
I also provided my own bank statement showing CAD 16k and stated that I would cover their expenses during their stay. Our parents are no longer alive.

I don’t understand what other documents would be required to demonstrate strong ties??

Reason of Refusal - applicant does not have significant family ties outside of Canada and insufficient funds

It was relatively easy to visit until around 2025. Is your sister your brother’s legal guardian? Is she married ? Does she have children? 11k of liquid personal savings is not enough for 2 people. Your savings don’t really count.

From the looks, both siblings does not have significant family ties outside of Canada. As they are from India, CAD 11k is probably not enough. Your funds are not considered.

She’s single and has a legal guardianship of my brother. We filed their application together.

If we reapply, what is the minimum funds they should have?

Try double that amount.

Try double that amount.

How soon do you think it would be appropriate to reapply? I’m thinking to reapply for my sis only.
