Hi everyone, please raise the voice on citizen portal or any other media to have Canada Embassy open in Pakistan. that is only solution for rejections and refused. We are in Abu Dhabi most probably most populated office and more biased may be. please raise your office

Were you PR at that time? What was the reason of visit?
I was citizen at that time. Reason of rejection was that the hosts minimum income for the family size is not sufficient. Although it was visitor visa and it is not mandatory for the host to meet the minimum income requirement for TRV.

TRV is solely based on applicants credentials and worth instead of host's documents which does not matter at all except the invitation letter.

This time I have applied a super visa. I wish that the visa is approved this time for my parents as well as for all those who have applied.

In shaa Allah and ameen

Same pathetic reasons, i didn't even think that he clearly go through my application, one of the reason were duration of visit whereas I clearly mentioned 20 days.
Other reasons were no travel history and financial (we showed $70,000 CAD) 20 from me and 50 from them.
Like people are getting visa from nowhere and I'm a PR and tax payer for this country for 5 years.
Khair bro, in shaa Allah they will get it approved this time, ameen.
inshAllah I wish you the best.

I understand that VO applies their SOPs and policies in refusing or approving visas however in my parent's earlier application, believe me the application I prepared was so comprehensive that VO did the eligibility and other stuff quickly and the decision was made in 10 days with only one reason that host's income (LICO) is not sufficient for your family size. I was like pissed off that since when the condition of LICO is applicable on TRVs. A host whose income is not meeting LICO however their parents want to visit and would bear the expenses themselves then what is the problem. VO has to validate the information provided by the applicant and corroborate that ties are strong plus financial situation is also stable so to sponsor one's own trip. No one is asking for PR and anyother visa. its just a TRV.

Anyhow lets hope that everyone gets their visas approved inshAllah and no one goes through the refusal phase which is hard.

Alhamdulilah, Allah, as always has been extremely kind.

Applied visit visa for my parents on 18th September 2019. Got approved on 18th October 2019 from Lahore via Online portal.

I believe in our case & may be in general the most important factor is the presentation of your case. How clear every objective is in your case with any loophole duly explained. Not only that every document must be referred and cross referred so that VO should not have to dig into documents to find something, it must be clear from the face of it.

May Allah create ease for all.

Congrats. I second your opinion that application that is submitted with a clear labelling and each and every scanned document has a clear cover page explaining the content helps processing quicker. Irrespective of decision, the refusal or approval comes faster.

Congrats once again.

Dear Friends

I applied on 4th October 2019 for TRV online. Biometric request received on 5th October and Biometric done on 8th October in Lahore, Pakistan. Correspondence letter against biometrics Expiry received on 23 and today on 25 October I got visa refusal based on following points.
"• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as a temporary resident, as stipulated in paragraph 179(b) of the IRPR, based on the purpose of your visit.
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as a temporary resident, as stipulated in paragraph 179(b) of the IRPR, based on the limited employment prospects in your country of residence.
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as a temporary resident, as stipulated in paragraph 179(b) of the IRPR, based on your current employment
situation."

My purpose of visit was tourism and I attached hotel booking in Toronto along with tickets. I also attached my day to day itinerary but visa officer is not satisfied. As far as my travel history is concerned I have been to Saudi Arabia, UAE thrice, Malaysia twice, Singapore twice, Thailand, China.

Second point is, he is not satisfied with current employment situation in my country. How can I improve the situation.

I am a graduate Civil Engineer and from the last 10 years I am doing my own business and attached the last 3 years tax returns, chamber of commerce membership, ntn, factory pictures and in support I further attached dome purchase orders worth 7 million to show him that I own a business and attached land-line bill also. I attached my personal statement shows 9500CAD in account. Also shown a property in my name, 6 millions term deposits, my car worth 3.5 million. Still he is not satisfied that I will leave Canada based on my current employment status.

Is there any body who can help me in improving the points raised by visa officer. I am very much disappointed on the decision made.

Is there any specific time period limitation to apply for TRV again

Brother, does it mean that there is no way out? I mean genuine visitors cannot visit just because officer think. I am confused that I own a mid size industry and visa officer thinks I will not come back.

No i am not disappointing you, but unfortunately if its one time rejected there is a very less chance to get it approved, but there are cases for approval in second time. Some are very lucky, but i have a bad experience. We have to raise the voice on all forums to get visa section opened in Pakistan
