What are the best options for the upload.

Examples of what you can provide as proof:

A scanned copy of:

Your flight ticket departing Canada,
Your travel itinerary (e.g. places you will visit or stay, such as hotel booking),
Proof of a medical appointment.

This is what CIC requires
I have not bought a ticket yet cause waiting to get the visitor visa first.

You can include provisional flight bookings.... and state in the cover letter that you will buy confirmed tickets when the TRV is issued. Also, do prepare a day-by-day itinerary (broad plan) for sightseeing/activities, etc.

Actual processing times can go for a toss + the risk of a TRV refusal (hopefully, it will not happen in your case)

1> Day by Day itinerary
2> Support evidences in the cover letter format (enclosures)
3> Sample airline trip - from any travel website such as expedia,orbitz etc

Club all these into single pdf document and should become your purpose of travel.

if my mother is coming to just visit me and we do not have an itinerary, is that step needed ? I did create a letter and mention that we dont have a itinerary, however we did put a "reservation" ticket.
is tht sufficient?

thanks

A provisional flight ticket is fine. However, IRCC would also like to see if an applicant has planned his/her visit well. For this, a day-by-day broad itinerary for sightseeing/activities/meeting friends and relatives would help.

A good plan means a visitor knows exactly what s/he intends to do during the visit.

As you've already applied, you will have to wait until you get a decision

Plans can change anytime. However, for a TRV application, you can do a bit of research/look up tourism places and activities that you'd like to take your mom to.

The day-by-day itinerary could also include days stayed in at home relaxing/watch the television, etc. Basically, the idea is to prove that the applicant knows what s/he intends to do

19:00 family dinner with whole family Ning Tu Restaurant

21:00 back home at in laws residence, then shower , watch tv , sleep

Too detailed , i guess you just need to give idea what plans you have for staying , what places you will be visiting and are you aware of expenses like ticket traveling cost or renting a car what ever

Does my invitation letter have to be sent to canadian embassy before we submit?
The invitation letter from your Canadian host must be addressed to the Visa Officer. It must be included as part of your application/not to be submitted separately
