Hello, need some guidance please.
We are Canadian citizens & planning to invite my sister from India for family visit.
Few clarifications & much helpful if someone can throw some light please.
1)Can I directly apply for visit visa via IRCC site from Canada? And, should I choose tourist visa or family unite? What is the better option or more likelihood in getting the visa through?
2)I see that I need to prepare an Invitation letter but what about Proof of document/relation for my sister? What exactly I need to attach for this if I am inviting my sister?

thanks in advance

If your sister is coming for a short time then Vistor Visa has better chance.

Regarding Documentation.. Provide documentation that proves relationship i.e. that she is your sister. Also provide strong ties back home i.e. if she is working then the holidays she applied in her firm, salary slips letter from employer stating that she will be on leave and join back at a date
