    Visitor Visa inquiry

    How old are they and have they done substantial traveling to other countries like US, UK, Australia, etc. Are they a the legal guardian of the 18 year old sibling? If so I would include the legal paperwork indicating that they are a legal guardian. That would create a tie to their home country.

    Many may not accept private pay. Also not sure about Credit Valley and private pay for prenatal care & delivery other than emergency.
