Sure you can write a letter but not showing their own funds weakens their application because why would they return. If they can’t afford to visit, you should be looking at a Supervisa if you meet LICO.
Visitor Visa (Parents) January 2021.

They can afford to visit, but IRCC rejects applications on the basis of the "expenses do not justify the visit based on the financial standing" which basically means you have more than the money necessary to visit but then that would consume 50-60% of your bank savings.
My parents have a valid US visa and they have visited me and gone back after a month long trip in 2018. That is strong enough credibility I guess to convince IRCC that they have a good track record of not abusing a visitor visa.

If they have visited you in Canada and returned that is good. A valid US visa is good too. All your parents can do is wait for a response.

I am applying for my parents visitor visa. I have few questions:
- How to show parent's strong ties to India ?
- Do they need to write a letter mentioning their owned house in India and their elder son living in India etc ?
- For showing the ownership of the house what are the options since the house papers are in local language.
- Under which option should they upload these documents as I see only option for Funds, Passport, marriage certificate, Letter of Invitation and Additional documents.

One of the strongest ties for parents is there partner/spouse. When you are filling application, you can mention 'NO' when asked if they will be accompanied by each other. If one stays back in India, that is a strongest reason as family ties back in India and they will go back.

They have not visited me in Canada, I used to live in the US for 8 years and they visited me during that time.
Having a US visa and travel history is a significant boost to a Canadian visa application, from what I have read in all forums.
So are you suggesting that I should just apply for my mother first and the strong tie for her to her home country is that she has to return back to my father? I kinda had the same thought.

Of course it is a boost but so are their own funds and showing they can afford to visit.

Having visited the US and followed the immigration rules helps an application. Just having the visa doesn't do much. IRCC likes to see a pattern of people respecting the immigration laws and not overstaying visas.
If they want to travel together there is really no point in applying separately. If they keep getting denied you could consider having only one apply and visit Canada and then apply for your father's visa. Would try a supervisa first if they get denied the TRV.

Yes I agree, they have a valid visa and also visited me in the US.
Hi guys my file is in PR process since Mar 2019, we have to go back India urgently for family emergency as we do not have stamp on passport for re-entry to Canada and for that we have applied for TRV can we send passport for stamping in India? Any guesses how much time does it take overall?
