Planning your application
A visitor visa application should clearly explain the purpose of a trip and the circumstances of the person travelling. Family invitations, funding arrangements, travel history and commitments outside Canada need to form a coherent application.
How Value Visa can help
We help review the proposed visit, identify missing documents and prepare explanations that match the evidence. If there has been a refusal, we review the reasons and previous submission first. A new application should address the actual concerns rather than repeat the same documents without explanation.
Your review is specific to your circumstances. We explain the proposed work and confirm fees in writing before beginning. Government fees are separate.
Documents to discuss
Bring the records you already have to the consultation. This starting list does not replace the personalized checklist for your application.
- Passport and travel history
- Invitation and proposed itinerary
- Funding and employment or business records
- Previous refusals and relevant family information
For the initial inquiry, describe your situation and deadlines. Ask us how to share sensitive documents before emailing identity or financial records.
Current official guidance
Requirements, fees and processing information can change. Use the official instructions alongside advice about your own circumstances.

Does a Canadian invitation guarantee a visitor visa?
No. An invitation can support the purpose of a visit, but IRCC assesses the complete application and makes the decision.
What will a consultation cover?
We discuss your goal, immigration history and the documents available, identify questions that need further review and explain the scope of assistance. Fees are confirmed in writing before work begins; government fees are separate.
Can Value Visa guarantee approval or a processing date?
No. IRCC makes immigration decisions, and processing times can change. We help prepare a complete, consistent application and explain the next steps without promising an outcome.
