Hi all,
My mother and I helped my aunt apply for a TRV. The purpose of visit is to see my wedding. Estimated stay is 1 month. She will come alone and leave her husband and daughter in India. My aunt is a homemaker. We applied online and she uploaded:
1. Form 5257e and other forms
2. All necessary pictures
3. Letter of invitation from my mother stating purpose of visit (my wedding), daily itinerary (including local trips in the GTA), scan of my wedding card, my mother's bank account ($30k), my mother's home ownership papers and mother's citizenship. We have pledged to pay for my aunt's expenses and have an extra bedroom for her
4. Proof of Financial Resource of Supporter -My aunt's husband's: company registration papers, GST registration, bank statements, market value report of house ($50k) and net worth report (house + other assets, $60k)
5. Proof of Financial Resource of Support - My aunt's joint bank statement with her husband ($2000), her husband's company's incorporation documents, his tax returns for 4 years and their joint savings account ($1000, RRSP equivalent I think)
She was denied based on not enough evidence that she would return and her lack of financial support. How would it be best to tackle this? My mother and I have income higher than the Canadian mean and we have pledged to pay for all her expenses on the trip. She is also leaving her husband and daughter for this trip. I feel like that is enough of a reason to return. The only option I can think of would be for us to purchase the plane ticket and re-apply. Any help/advice would be welcome.
Thanks
