A Checklist for Your Canadian Visa Interview

Preparation is the key to a successful visa interview. Knowing what to expect and having your documents in order can make all the difference.

1. Original Documents

Ensure you have all original documents that you uploaded with your application. This includes passports, degree certificates, and proof of funds. Organization shows the officer you are serious and prepared.

2. Know Your Study/Work Plan

If you are a student, be ready to explain why you chose your specific course and college. If a worker, know your job duties and employer details inside out. The officer needs to see that your intentions match your application.

3. Proof of Ties to Home Country

One of the main reasons for visa refusal is "lack of ties." Be prepared to discuss your family, property, or career prospects in your home country that will ensure your return after your temporary stay.
