Letter of Invitation Services

Letter of Invitation North York

At Notary Lawyer North York, we provide professional assistance in preparing and notarizing Letters of Invitation for visa applications to Canada. Many foreign nationals require a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) to enter Canada, and one of the most common supporting documents requested by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) is a Letter of Invitation from a Canadian host.

While the invitation letter itself does not guarantee visa approval, it is an important piece of evidence that demonstrates the visitor has been invited by a Canadian citizen or permanent resident, and that their travel purpose is legitimate. A well-prepared and notarized letter can greatly improve the credibility of a visa application.

Why a Letter of Invitation is Needed

Immigration officers use the invitation letter to assess:

  • The relationship between the host and the applicant.
  • The purpose and duration of the visit.
  • The financial arrangements for the stay.
  • Whether the visitor has ties to their home country and intends to return.

Without a properly drafted and notarized letter, visa applications may face delays, additional questioning, or outright refusals.

What to Include in a Letter of Invitation

A complete Letter of Invitation North York should include:

  • Full legal name, address, occupation, and contact details of the host.
  • Proof of Canadian status (copy of passport, PR card, or citizenship certificate).
  • Relationship between host and guest.
  • Purpose of the visit (family visit, tourism, business, special occasion, etc.).
  • Duration of stay and travel dates.
  • Accommodation arrangements (e.g., staying at host’s home or hotel).
  • Financial support details, if the host is covering expenses.
  • Full details of the guest, including their name, date of birth, address, occupation, and passport number.

Our notaries ensure that all required details are included and that the letter meets IRCC and consular requirements.

Benefits of a Notarized Letter of Invitation

While IRCC does not always make notarization mandatory, many embassies and consulates prefer or even require notarized invitation letters. This adds credibility because:

  • The notary verifies the host’s identity and signature.
  • The document is harder to dispute or reject.
  • Visa officers can trust that the information comes from a legitimate Canadian resident.

At Notary Lawyer North York, we draft, review, and notarize your letter to ensure it is complete, accurate, and ready for submission.
