Visitor Visa
Normally, every citizen of a foreign country who wishes to enter Canada for a temporary purpose (such as work, study, tourism, pleasure or visit) must first obtain a visitor visa.
Every visitor, unless exempted, must apply for and obtain a visa before appearing at a Port of Entry (POE). All visitors who are required to obtain a visitor visa must have visa when they appear at a POE.
The Canadian visitor visa application involves a two-step procedure:
First Step: The foreign national must first submit a visit visa application to the concerned Canadian visa office in the country or region where they live. At this time, the applicant may have to attend an embassy interview where the visa officer will verify the applicant’s reasons for visiting Canada, the applicant’s ability or willingness to leave Canada within the visa validity date and the applicant’s overall admissibility to Canada.
Second Step: After visa issuance, the applicant may land in Canada. At the port of entry an immigration officer will question the applicant to ensure admissibility.
visitor visa may be for single entry or multiple entry use. Single entry visas may be issued up to six months before the expected date of travel. The maximum validity date for multiple entry visitor visas is up to five (5) years or one month prior to the expiry date on the passport/re-entry visa, whichever is earlier. POE officers usually grant entry for a period of six months to a person requesting entry as a visitor.
A foreign national who has an immigrant visa already in process is also eligible to apply for a temporary resident visa.
