NuCypher:

Very likely your marriage certificate did more of the magic. As a single applicant, you may have stood less chance, regardless of those other impressive documents. COngratulations!

I don't think so. Visa officers are very careful of denying families of Canadian citizens or PR holders especially where they meet the minimum requirements.

Your submission may have been correct if the brother is just a temporary resident that is working or schooling.

Greetings everyone, Please I need people's opinion on this: I applied for a Conference Visa in January 2024 and today I was denied based on this ''I am not satisfied that you have a legitimate business purpose in Canada.'' That is the only comment the VO dropped. The conference was on the 15th of June 2024. I want to know if I should re-apply for a tourist visa instead of the conference. I am self-employed of which I submitted everything about my business, banks, and family.

NuCypher:

Sorry to hear about your denial. Your profile actually looks very solid, but it looks like denials are on the increase now. The sad truth is that a lot of Nigerians who have gone before you have destroyed the trust the visa officers once had. I'm fairly sure some people with the exact same profile as yours (if not better) also failed to return after receiving their visitor visas.

First, the testimony to encourage others

My wife recently received PPR and BVL for our Visitor Visas
Submission: Jan 21, 2024
Biometrics: Jan 24,2024
PPR& BVL: June 21, 2024

Then, my issue is similar to the solution prescribed. My passport renewal was just completed a few days ago. Can I still use the webform to upload the new passport AFTER PPR has already been received. Do I then proceed to submit both passports by courier considering they may not even see the webform in days?

Please does your wife have any travel history?
Please drop her timeline together with yours sir ?
