VISITOR VISA

A Visitor Visa, also known as a Temporary Resident Visa, allows every eligible person from around the world to visit the country of Canada. This visa does not allow the people entering Canada to stay there permanently. Unless you are a Canadian Permanent Resident or a Canadian citizen or a US citizen, you will require a Temporary Resident Visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization.
The Temporary Resident Visa allows the people to visit Canada for visiting their family, leisure, conferences, and any other purpose that will require them to stay
in Canada for a short while. The Visa officer retains the sole discretion to either refuse or grant the visa. The Canadian Visa Office provides the applicant with a timeline and they can visit the country only within this provided time period. The Temporary Entry Visa can be of two types, Single Entry and Multiple Entry.

With a Single-Entry Visa, the holder can visit the country of Canada only one time. However, if the visa holder leaves the country for the United States of America or St. Pierre and Miquelon, their return to Canada is allowed again and they would not require a new Single-Entry Visa to enter the country.
With a Multiple-Entry Visa allows the holder to enter the country of Canada as and when they require. The visa holder will not have to reapply each time and the validity of the visa is up to 10 years, or one month before the passport expires, whichever comes first.
Before you apply for a Temporary Resident Visa, you have to fulfill a few requirements. The applicant must:

• Be a holder of a valid passport with at least six months of validity.
• Have a residence outside Canada and other ties to their home country, ensuring that they will leave the country once the visa expires.
• Possess the financial resources to support their trip to Canada.
• Have an explicit plan for the visit in Canada or an invitation letter from family members or friends in Canada.
• Not have any criminal records according to the laws which govern Canada.
• Not pose any security risk to Canada or the people staying in Canada and willing to abide by all the laws which govern Canada.
• Be in good health and must be willing to undergo a medical examination to determine that, if required.
• Not intend to engage in employment under any employer or in study (other than short term courses) during their stay in Canada unless authorized to do so.
• Be willing to provide Biometric if required based upon their country of origin.
• Be willing to provide any supporting document as requested by the visa officer.
