You must demonstrate that you have adequate financial resources to pay for the visit + strong ties to return to KSA + ties to your origin country.

Canadian immigration authorities will verify both documents i.e. your iqama/residence permit and the employment letter = Your iqama profession will also be verified.

All documents must be in English or translated into English by a certified translator

Your brother's finances are supplementary. You must prove that you can afford the visit with your own finances (without borrowing from anyone).

You must also prepare a detailed day-by-day plan of your intended visit with expense estimates.... and prove that you have the liquid finances for this plan.


2. We have 4,5 property in India on my mother and father name how can I present this property to the embassy, What document I need to prepare.
Your parents properties cannot be shown as reasons for you to return to KSA.

You must provide evidence of your personal/professional ties to KSA and India: Your employment + a lease agreement + strong financials + dependent family members + previous travel to countries such as the US, UK, EU, Australia, NZ

I don't understand this *desperation* to visit. Even if your parents transfer the properties to you, the visa office will be quick to notice it was done for the sake of the visa application.

Your employment


Personal ties in India ( please explain)
Property or land ownership, dependent family members, financial ties, etc

Don't expect me or anyone else on this forum to help you if your intention is to present a fraudulent visa application. Hopefully you are aware that fraudulent documents can result in a 5-years ban for misrepresentation.

Personally, I'm not convinced about your employment too. Your Iqama/Residence Permit is under the 'Labour' category (not Manager or maybe a supervisory title) whereas your employment letter states 'Pharmacist'. As a 'Labour Class' you cannot sponsor under the Family Class, whereas IF your Iqama stated 'Pharmacist", you would be eligible for a family visa.

So, not sure why there's a huge mismatch in the titles stated in your Iqama and your Employment Letter.


My best advice to you:
Don't create a royal mess for yourself by submitting fake and fraudulent documents. It will completely scuttle your chances of getting visas to most countries (even as a visitor) if Canada bans you for 5 years for misrepresentation

Hi Bryanna.

Thanks for your reply.

I need your opinion.

2011 I applied for USA Student visa twice and it was rejucted with 221g form. After refusal I applied for Uk student visa I got visa n I studied masters dere.

It’s been 7 years now, do I need to mention in Canada application form for visitor visa or not to mention any refusal.

Also previously I applied with my old passport, now I am applying with my renew new passport.

Waiting for your sugession.

Thanks bro

hi habeeb,

If you are an expat here in Saudi and has a valid iqama (residence permit) what should you put as a status in the form IMM5257? Is it a permanent resident or worker? and how about the dependents? what should their status be? if you also put worker, it is asking for the dates, however, we only have expiration date in the iqama. Hope you could help me. Thank you.
