Tourist Visa

You need to demonstrate having enough funds to cover all expenses during your stay, including accommodation, food, transportation, and emergencies. Generally, Canada expects visitors to have access to approximately $150-200 CAD per day of their stay. You can prove this through recent bank statements (last 3-6 months), employment letters showing steady income, sponsorship letters if applicable, and proof of pre-paid accommodations or tours. The exact amount needed may vary based on your travel plans and accommodation arrangements.

Common rejection reasons include insufficient proof of ties to home country, inadequate financial resources, unclear travel purpose, or incomplete documentation. To improve your chances, ensure you have strong evidence of reasons to return home (job, property, family), provide clear and complete financial documentation, submit a detailed travel itinerary, and demonstrate genuine tourist intentions. Having a professional review your application can help identify and address potential issues before submission. It's also important to be completely honest in your application and consistent with your stated travel plans.
