Some of these requirements being: a valid travel document, such as a passport (please remember to make sure that it is valid beyond the end of your scheduled visit). Also, you will need to be in good health and have no criminal or immigration related convictions.

If the two requirements above are met, you can fill in the application form. In your application, you will have to convince an immigration officer the following:

You will leave Canada by the end of your visit and you have strong ties back home. By strong ties, it means that you have a job, a family, and financial assets like a business or home. It is important that you convince the officer that you will go back by the end of your visit because of these strong ties. You may also be required to show that you have sufficient funds for your visit. It is important to have proper documentation for all the above factors that are crucial for getting a visitor visa.

EXTEND YOUR STAY IN CANADA

As a visitor or business person in Canada.

If you want to extend your stay in Canada, you must apply to do so. Check your temporary resident status to make sure you apply before the expiry date.

How to Extend your Temporary Visa?
First, you must apply before the expiry date. This will be on your study or work permit, the stamp in your passport or, if you do not have a stamp in your passport, 6 months from the day you entered Canada.
You should apply 30 days before your status expires to:
  • extend your visitor, student or work status,
  • change your permit type (for example, from a study permit to a work permit) or
  • change your permit condition(s) (for example, if you are studying and you want to change schools, or if you are working and you want to change jobs).
Implied status
If you apply to extend your permit, and your visitor visa expires while you are waiting for a decision, you still have temporary resident (visitor) status. This is known as implied status.
