compelling evidence you plan to return to your country

What exactly does that mean? I searched through the tourist visa guide that is stickied at the top of this page but couldn't find anything specific. Is there anything specific or is it more subjective?

Unfortunately there is nothing anyone here can tell you that could definitely help to prove you intend to return.

Each applicant is assessed upon their own merits so each and every case is unique and hinges on the opinion of the interviewing officer.

I've seen cases on here of people with jobs, property, family and lives in their own country get refused and I've seen cases where people have been approved when they have very little proof. It all comes down to if you can convince the CO of your intentions or not.

Things to consider are property, well paid jobs, close family and social circles in your home country.

But at the end of the day all you can do is apply with what you have, answer all the questions honestly and hope for the best.

Alrighty, I'll just try to get everything that I have ready then. Thanks for the fast response!
