My first attempt, the reason is to visit bf, a Canadian citizen for the first time. We met online and we tried to apply for my visit visa. He made an invitation letter and affidavit of support, but it was refused. We accepted it as we haven't meet yet.
2nd attempt, we met in Philippines, then after 2 months from the time we met, we re-applied for the Visit visa again. We thought that we would get it this time because we have all the documents ready but unfortunately got refused again. It really broke our hearts. And my bf now is thinking to separate because for him relationship is useless if you can't even visit each other or be together and I agreed with him.
I just want to know what are the weak points in my application. We invested too much for this, especially for each other and just because of the refusal of the visit to Canada it will ruin our relationship.
Here are the documents I submitted
- I have a business, I earn monthly income there. I rent 2 units. I get 9,500Php/240CAD monthly. I submitted the "Deed of sale, Transfer of Rights, Electricity bill under my name, and rent receipts that I give to my tenants, and I also made an Affidavit of Undertaking stating that i own the property and I rent 2 units"
- My bf gave me the "Affidavit of Invitation". Sworn statement that he will be responsible for my accommodation, food, flight, and other expenses during my short stay there. He had it notarized. And in the letter he stated there that he sent me money via western union for me to book flight. He attached there the western union transfer screenshots. He earns approximately 1,100CAD/week. He attached there also his payslip for 2 weeks, and his online bank balance like 8,000CAD.
- for my proof of financial support, i submitted my payslip for whole month, like I get 30,000PHP/760CAD monthly. Rent Receipt, credit card with 40,000phhp/1,014CAD credit limit, western union slip (money that my bf sent me), My 4 months bank statement with approximately 500,000php/12,680CAD
- proof of relationship, our pictures together, booked flights, and hotels, and chat logs
- travel history (japan 2x - business trip, vietnam, thailand, macau, HK, Malaysia, Singapore)
- purpose of travel is to meet my bf's family for the first time, as he already met mine and celebrate thanks giving this Oct. 2019 and also visit some tourist spots in Canada like Niagara falls, etc.. My length of stay is from Oct. 11 - Oct. 22, 2019
- I also made a letter to consular that I am a genuine visitor, that i have a child who will be waiting for me, who is studying that needs his mother support and guidance at school. I attached there my sons birth certificate and enrollment certificate. I also said in the letter that i will be temporarily leaving my son to my mothers care while on vacation. My mom has an astha so i cannot leave my son to her care for a long period of time. I attached there my mom medical certificate and one of her astha maintenance prescription. Also I included the letter from my manager that I am expected to be back after 2 weeks vacation as there is no one will take my place at work.
Now we are thinking to get married in Philippines but he is in doubt if we could still be together, after 2 refusals, if he could still sponsor me to Canada.
I dont know what else to do. Please give me some advice. Thank you.
