Application in Beijing refused?

[DamonL]

The applications of Temporary Residence Visa of my sister and nephew were refused yesterday. The major factor of the rejection is "family ties in Canada and in country of residence". My sister works as an account for many years and my nephew studies in a college in China. My father-in-law is not planning to go to Canada with them. I do believe they have ties in country of residence. They have applied for the visas two year ago, and refused by the similar reason. In fact, I am pretty sure they come to Canada for visiting me and go back to home country, and I cannot find any possibilities for them to stay in Canada.

However, I tried to look for my Member of Parliament to help. The MP office called me and explained that there is no formal appeal process, and just wait for the situation to change and re-apply again. I do not think the "family ties in Canada and in country of residence" will change as time going. In this case, the applications of the visitor visa seems not to be successful forever. :'( :'( :'(

Hi,

The option is to reapply with stronger evidence of ties to China.

Can you please share the list of documents that your sister and nephew submitted? Also, do give us details of the family in China versus the family in Canada

It is possible to get TRVs if documents/evidence are presented properly. Don't lose hope


Cheers

Why don't they apply for TRV on their own without giving details that they would visit you in Canada? For example, if you live in Surrey BC, your relatives could have included the travel agents' itinerary of upon arrival at YVR airport, the tour group will immediately go to Chinatown and then to Victoria BC and Seattle WA, etc. You don't have to give them an invitation letter. In fact, I have met many visitors from China, applied on their own, without showing any invitation letters from their relatives in Canada, got approved multiple visit visas.

Btw, how much does your sister and her husband make?

Thank you for reply. I did give details, such as, my brother-in-law who will stay in China and not go with them, and myself in Ontario. Two years ago, I submitted the employment letter, bank certificates and real-estate property etc., their TVR applications were rejected. Recently, I heard the TVR becomes easier for Chinese, so I only submitted bank certificates about CAD$20,000 that indicates enough funds for traveling in Canada this year beside all those mandatory documents.

Well, their English is not good enough to complete the application, so I decide to help them out. Sure, they can try the travel agent but why do they have to waste money to go somewhere they do not want to go. I know the number of visitors from China has dramatically increased, but I do not understand why the Visa officers assumed my sister and nephew would stay in Canada after visiting.

Btw, I think about $12,000 CAD annually.

Thank you for reply.

So, in both times, you did not tell your relatives to submit something (such as papers showing their financial status) from their side? No wonder the applications were refused. These evidence are considered as ties in China.
