Applying parents visa along with my work visa application?

[skumar1981]

Hi All,

I was thinking to apply for parents visitor visa's as well along with my work visa application to avoid further documentation process. In that case, i need to file work permit application, open work permit to my wife, visitor and study visa to my two kids, and parents visitor visa. Can i file everything at once?. Is it delays the process?

Or you will recommend to file parents visitor visa once we settle down in Canada?. Please let me know your thoughts and experiences?.

Note: My package is around 110k CAD and parents planning to stay with me for 5-6 months only.

Recommendation is to wait for six months or so after you have arrived in Canada for your parents to apply. Otherwise it can make it look like your parents are looking to move with you to Canada or that you are expecting them to take care of your kids (which is technically classified as working illegally). Best approach is to wait for the highest chance of approval. If you really want to have them apply now, do not go with 5-6 months. This is a very long trip and indicates a lack of ties to their home country. Ask for 3 weeks.

Thank you so much for your suggestion. My parents age is my concern and not sure they will be able to manage the application and visiting visa office, biometrics and all.

You increase the chances of rejection by having them apply now.

Yes, the 3-4 week stay is mentioned in the visa application.
