Hi everyone. I would really like to request some guidelines on what can be improved for the visitor visa filing for my parents. I have been in Canada for more than six years and still waiting to get the PR. My brother here is studying and will be graduating soon. I applied my parents visitor visa several times on my behalf but it got rejected every single time. Then, i ended up applying for each one of them individually, still the same thing. They claim that we are not satisfied you will go back even in their Notes. My father works for state government and my mother works for central government back home and they are both on service with many years pending. We attached their NOCs from the department with all the other required documents, still visa got rejected.
1. Any suggestions of what can be improved?
2. Strong reasons for applying the visas?
3. Can we send a letter or request a meeting with any immigration officer to know what's been going wrong?
4. Any consultant that you have a personal experience with who knows what they are doing and advices the right thing?

So only reason is not returning? How long was visit? How many refusals and when did reapply? If multiple refusals, IRCC views them as desperate to come to Canada.

1. Don't know reasons or what parents showed to return. Given children are in Canada they have no family ties to return.
2. Funds, travel history to US, UK, NZ, AUS, strong ties to return (job is not enough).
3. No. No one is going to meet with you.
4. Get a lawyer.

Have you ordered GCMS notes? Do you have other siblings? How old are your parents? If close to retirement age work becomes less of a tie. How much did they show for liquid savings? Other ties? As previously noted applying multiple times also likely hurt your application. How many times have they applied?

Yes, we did. It didn't specified much but said we aren't satisfied you will go back. I applied when my other sibling was backhome but now he is here too. They are 49 and 50. still have 15 years to retire. Liquid savings were almost 40,000$. They applied almost 5 times in past 6 years.

Yes and sometimes the funds but we showed almost 40k as liquid. 1 month. My sibling just came last year. Previously, he was with them. They said him as the reason to return and their on service jobs and property. They have travel history to some tourist countries like Thailand. How does the lawyer helps?
