3At IMB Immigration Law, we handle many cases of
visa refusals resulting from poorly prepared
filings by applicants themselves or poor work
done by some local agent with limited or no
knowledge. These refusals range from visitor and
student visa applications to work permit and PR
applications as well. The most common visa
refusals at the consulate level, is Visitor
Visa (Canada) and B1/B2 (USA). Visitor
Visa/B1-B2 Refusals Visitor visas are needed
when one wants to travel to a country for tourism
or meeting friends relatives. These visas
require intent of temporary travel from the
applicant. The applicant has to prove to the visa
officer that he/she will only travel for a small
duration of time and has the financial resources
to make that journey. The applicant has to
provide proof of sufficient funds earned from a
credible source. As a part of the temporary
intent, applicant has to convince the visa
officer that he/she will return back to the home
country and that there is a life in home country
that he has to resume studies or employment or
business). Visa officer also wants to know if the
visitor has any connections in the intended
country of travel. Applicants have to
4prove you will leave Canada/USA after the
travels show that you have enough money to take
care of yourself and your family members during
your stay and to return home Have enough and
strong familial and financial ties to the home
country obey the law and have no record of
criminal activity not plan to work during the
temporary travel Most of these investigative
questions have stemmed from the historical
mis-use of such visas. India is considered a
region with high fraud potential. This means that
instances of fake documentation, false intent
purpose of travel, and concealment of real
information is very high. Applicants from such
regions are put to added scrutiny and
resultantly, refusal rates are very
high. Canadian Visitor Visa applications are
submitted and reviewed online and there is no in
person interview. It becomes even more important
to submit thorough documentation without
discrepancies. US visa interviews are conducted
in-person but are of very short duration.
Although officers are trained to ascertain
details but in limited interview time, even
genuine applications are, sometimes, refused.
Therefore, it is very important to complete the
application carefully and accurately. Answer
questions correctly and never conceal any
previous denials. Wherever possible provide
explanations with the documents where the
documents are confusing or are not
self-explanatory.
5It is advisable that unsophisticated applicants
get assistance from an Immigration lawyer.
Remember first chance to get a visa is the best
chance if the application is done
properly. Country Specific Documents Applicants
are also required to have all such documents that
are specific to the region they are living in or
come from. For example, a married applicant from
India must present a marriage certificate issues
by registrar of marriages even if the marriage
happened in a religious place. Applicants are
often asked to produce both religious ceremony
certificates and the official government issued
marriage certificate. Consulates are vary of
applicants coming from high fraud risk regions
and generally ask for further evidence and proof
of genuine marriage. Contact IMB Immigration
