Good evening everyone, please I have dual intent application in progress, visitors Visa and spouse sponsorship application, I have done my biometric, medical passed, SA approval for my the spouse sponsorship application, for the visitors visa I just got a refusal letter today and the reason was baseless because I have everything addressed in the visitor visa application. My family ties, more than 20m in my account, properties documents. Travel history. Hope it’s not going to affect my family class application because, the stage I am right now in my PR application is background check. Anyone have experience this before and what is the success rate for my PR and what will likely happen? Share you thoughts please.

MayorOfEdmonton:
Each application is processed independently, I know someone who had Visitor visa refused and Spousal approved after awhile.
Having a current spousal application doesn’t exactly scream I plan to visit my spouse and come back to Nigeria 🇳🇬 to the visa officer.
You and/or your spouse should keep sending webform appealing for prompt processing as you already have SA approval. Do you know the visa office processing the application?
Yes it’s Kenya office for the visitors visa and PR Ghana

Taiwo2023:
Good day to you,
I want to apply for a visitor visa in Canada to attend my brother's convocation in November.
However, in filling the online form, am bit confused, where it's stated
1.Select: why do you need a visitor visa?
What will i select, cause my brother is on study permit not a PR or citizen.
2. Select : why are you applying for the visa?
Will i select to visit as a tourist or family visit. Since i want to see my sibling.
Please i need someone to guide me on this application. I don't want to make a mistake.
Thank you,
Taiwo.

Biamoz:


Thanks for your response. I now got the biometrics letter that I should appear fot my biometrics capturing 30days from the day I got the letter without any link to book for appointment. Should I just take the letter together with my resident permit to the VAC office without booking an appointment?

Which country are you currently located??

Jeboy:
Wow this is so painful. They should have given you a decision early enough but delaying someone for 11 months before denial is a no no.

Just move on to something better.

Eriokanmi:
Don't give up dear. Just work on the reason(s for your refusal and try again)

TBH, this is the best way and you could also make use of an MP, that may help.

mobenjackson:


Hi, not to be scared, your PR application will be approved provided your BG check is fine, but when is what I can't say, I know folks stuck on BG check for over 6 months and no end in sight.

Now to address the dual intent, i think these VOs (offices/officers) don't have a base guidelines of approval on these type of things. As a matter of fact, I was in same category as you are, submitted TRV just 3 weeks after submitting Spousal (i never even collect AoR sef, talk more of spousal approval), first time my MP reached out to the visa office a month after submission, the reply was that my TRV will be rejected cus of dual intent, blah blah blah. i followed up with my MP when my processing time elapsed, as at when i submitted, i think it was 147 days from 9ja, the following week, i got the visit visa approved. As i type, eligibility for spousal hasn't not started according to 2 GCMS (with the latest received this month).

This begs the question, how exactly do they base the application and give a decision on dual intent? nobody knows. Just keep calm, hope for a speedy approval for your PR and pray for the best.
