What does it mean when my Canadian visa was rejected based on my?
What that means is that they did not believe that you were legitimately coming to Canada for the purpose specified in your visa application. They believed that due to your family ties to Canada, that your plan was to circumvent the immigration system and illegally stay in Canada. In order to have any chance of having any other application accepted, you will have to prove that you have much stronger ties to your home country than to Canada. in other words you will have to convince them that you have every reason to leave Canada when your Visa expires. If they think you have more reason to try to stay in Canada, they will reject your application.
