International student in Canada hoping to apply for Visitor Visa for her MOM

[Stressedgirl]

Hi. I am an international grad student in Ontario, doing my masters in Neuroscience. I havent been well lately, and was hoping to invite my mother to come stay with me for 1-2 months. I havent graduated yet, since I graduate in December. Just wanted to know how to apply, so there is no chance of refusal. HELP ME PLEASE!

There's always a chance of refusal - you can't eliminate that completely.

To have the highest chances of approval, your mother will need to demonstrate that she has strong ties to her home country and has no plans on remaining in Canada long term. She should provide evidence like proof of employment, proof of property ownership and proof she has enough money to pay for the visit. If she doesn't have an extensive travel history - I would recommend she request a 2-3 week visit only.
