Shegzy760:
Dear good people,
Please I need help. I submitted application for VV for my two kids to visit their mother who is in Canada on student visa but no update till today. Please what else can I do?

Is it advisable to request for GCMS notes?
Or can I send e mail to the visa office?
Which visa office should the e mail be sent to, I will appreciate if I can get the necessary e mail address.

Thank you.

It will be better if their mother do that and she should call the MP in her area to ask for the update on the application and also plead to the MP to tell those in charge of the application to quickly finalize it.

Pls can someone help me explain what MP means and how to go about it please my people

Visitor visa

I was trying to process a working Vida and discovered it is much longer

Good day everyone

Please I have a quick question.
Must someone give a visitor visa applicant an invitation letter in other to be approved?

Is there any huge influence of adding invitation letter to a visitor visa application? I am wondering if people get approved without anyone in canada giving them IV.

Please, did you submit insurance along with the application for your mum? I heard you need to pay for health insurance for super visa.

Kindly attend to this question if you have any useful information.

Good evening House,
Please I need your advice on this. Someone close to me needs help. Her daughter is a nurse in the US and she gave birth going to about a year now, this is someone who waited for over 10 years without a child. Long story short, the US embassy denied the mum twice, the second time was yesterday.

So I want to advice her if they can take the Canada route. Something like getting a visitors visa and meet up with the daughter in canada , maybe for vacation for a month or few weeks, then when she returns, she can then try US again because I wonder why US will deny someone who wants to see her grandchild.

Please advice, so I can recommend the best solution for her. Also the daughter is resident in the US with her family.

kayceekay:

Please, did you submit insurance along with the application for your mum? I heard you need to pay for health insurance for super visa.

Yes you need to submit Super Visa insurance for 1 year, minimum of $100k coverage and paid in full.

Good evening everyone , please what’s the first step for visitors visa for a family ?

Flakky26:
do i need to write statement of purpose for visitor visa to canada

Yes, I would advise you to do it. You can tag it "Purpose of Visit" or "Statement of Intent". it would give the VO a picture of your travel plans since you won't be there to defend yourself.

There is something the US Consulate Visa officer is not convinced about, and you may need to speak to your friend to carefully analyse what she has put forward to the visa officer in the 1st and 2nd interviews. She might have the same refusal issue if that is not corrected before a 3rd trial. It can be painful, especially when you need to see your grandchild.

She must understand what the US Visa officers are concerned about, and the clues often come from the line of questioning. i.e. What questions did the officer ask, and what was her response? Did her response align with what she filled in her DS160 visa application form? You can get more clues from the US Visitor visa thread. Your friend has to ensure what is filled in her mum's DS160 in the first and second attempts is consistent with what she will fill in for her mum in the 3rd attempt. She should review it carefully for her mum to ensure nothing looks off that would violate her visa conditions.

One area she would need to work on is strong ties to Nigeria and something that would compel her to return home. Her daughter being established in the US would be a concern for the officer, so there needs to be a more robust picture that her mum will return home and not overstay.

She can apply for Canada visit visa, but she still needs to convince the Canada Immigration officer she is eligible and meets all the criteria for a visit visa. She must also declare the US refusals in her application, state what she thinks is the reason for her refusal and why her situation has further improved, making her eligible for the Canada visit visa.

I wish your friend the best in her subsequent attempt.
