Deciding factors for the success of your application for a temporary resident visa to Canada

There are several factors the visa officer may look into while assessing a candidate’s temporary resident visa application. Typically, these factors are considered to make sure the individual doesn’t overstay in Canada. The factors that are usually considered are:
A] Purpose of Visit

While a candidate is applying for a visa, he/she needs to submit a ‘purpose of travel’ letter. It is ideal to include all relevant information about the travel in this letter, including travel plans inside the country, dates, place of stay, etc. It is also a good idea to include an invitation letter from a relative or friend in Canada with the application as it can serve as proof for one’s stay in the country. Here too, it is better to include relevant details, like the reason for their invitation, relationship with the Canadian resident, etc.

B] Bonds in the home country

Assuming that the candidate may be compelled to leave Canada before the expiration of the visa, the visa officer whether he/she has familial bonds of his/her home country that may compel him/her to return to Canada. If the individual owns a property or has a job in the home country then the officer is likely to be convinced. Submitting all supporting documents that can prove all these factors will enhance the chances of getting the temporary resident visa to Canada.

C] Funds
Candidates need to provide evidence that they are capable of supporting themselves and the dependants accompanying them to Canada. The evidence can be in the form of any of the following:

  • Certified cheque, cash, money order or bank draft with enough amounts that can cover all their expenses during their stay in the country.
  • Written or verbal statements indicating the availability of financial support from family and/or friends to cover all expenses that may be incurred during the candidate’s stay in Canada. The statements should be confirmable.
