3. Key Requirements
You have to meet some basic requirements to apply for the Visitor Visa successfully. A checklist of these
criteria includes the following:
● You should have enough money for your stay
● You need to convince an immigration officer that once your visit is over, you will leave Canada
● Tell the immigration officer that you have got ties like a home, financial assets, job, or family.
Furthermore, assure the immigration officer that any of these ties will take you back to your home
country
● You should not have any past criminal records related to immigration
● You should enjoy sound health and
● You should have a substantial travel document such as a passport etc
4. Stay Duration
As already said that you can stay up to six months in Canada with a temporary resident visa.
However, you can stay more or less than six months if you want. Inform the border services
officer about it at the port of entry. Accordingly, he or she will put the date of departure in
your passport. This way you can lessen or extend your duration while remaining lawful.
Besides, the border services officer can also give you another document called the visitor
record. This document will show the date by which you have to leave Canada.
5. Stamp Collection
If you require a stamp, you can always ask your border services officer regarding the same.
In case you don’t get one, you can stay in Canada for six months from the day you entered
the nation. You can also continue staying until your passport’s expiration. Besides, if you
turn up at an airport that uses primary inspection kiosks, ask your border officer to get your
passport stamped. However, you should do that only after completing all the formalities
there.
7. Check Your Eligibility
You should meet all the eligibility requirements that are given in the checklist. Subsequently,
you should carry substantial evidence with you, showing your expected arrival time in
