Visitor Visa

Every year, millions of people visit Canada to sight see or to visit family and friends. Individuals from specific countries, require a visitor visa, however not all individuals who apply for a visa will be approved. This article will explore five reasons why a Canadian visitor visa application may be denied:

• Incomplete application: This may sound simple, however you have to fill the application forms completely. Missing information or a missing signature may result in a refusal.
• Unclear length and purpose of trip: Even though you can stay up to 6 months in Canada on a visitor visa, the visa officer will want to know that the purpose of your visit make sense and is plausible.
• Lack of funds: When you apply for your visa, you will need to show that you have sufficient funds to support your stay. If you do not have sufficient funds for the length of your stay, this may result in a refusal.
• Loose connections to home country: The visa officer needs to be convinced that your stay in Canada will be temporary. One of the aspects that the visa officer will look at is if there are strong connections to your home country.
• Providing misleading or false information: It is important that you provide accurate and truthful information on your application forms. If the visa officer discovers that you provided misleading or false information, you may be denied from entering Canada for a specific period of time.
