Canada welcomes more than 35 million temporary residents (non-immigrants) each year. Visitors are persons who are not Canadian citizens or permanent residents of Canada, and are legally authorized to enter Canada to:
Visit Canada on holiday (vacation), Visit Family, Conduct Business, etc.
Visitors are restricted in length of stay and subject to various conditions.
Most travelers need a visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) to fly to, or transit through, a Canadian airport.
The type of travel document you will travel with the country that issued your travel document your nationality and how you will travel to Canada.
If you do not have the proper documents, such as an eTA or visa, you may be delayed or prevented from boarding your flight to Canada.
As of March 15, 2016, all travelers with passports from countries that are visa-exempt who enter Canada by air will need an eTA. The authorization is electronically linked to your passport and is valid for five years or until your passport expires, whichever comes first.
Most visitors are allowed a six-month stay from the day they entered Canada. If the officer authorizes a stay of less than six months, they will indicate in your passport the date by which you must leave Canada. If you want to stay longer than your authorized stay, you should apply for an extension at least 30 days before the authorized end of your stay.
The Canadian Visitor Visa application May seem straightforward and some applicants attempt to do the application themselves. The TRV applications have higher chance of refusal if the application is not prepared properly. One of the most common reason for TRV refusal is where the applicant did not fill out the form correctly. Therefore, it is highly recommended to hire an immigration professional who can help you prepare the paperwork.
