Proof of Ties to Home Country

Proof of Ties to Home Country refers to documentation that demonstrates an applicant’s social, economic, and familial connections to their country of residence. This may include evidence of employment, property ownership, family relationships, or community involvement, among other factors. Consular officers may use this information to assess the likelihood that the applicant will return home after their stay and may be less likely to grant a visa if they believe the applicant has weak ties or may intend to immigrate permanently.
