ednut1: no thats your interpretation. Sadly many agents have used the policy to mislead people too. Its just an option not that it means there are many employers on ground. If Nigerians have the kind if economic power Indians and Chinese have we would have big companies like them that can be used to offer job offers to our people. Miracles still happen regardless Please, how long can one stay at a stretch on vv for example a 3 year validity visa? |

Employers are not ready for the stress of obtaining LMIA, when thousands of people with PR/PGWP/student permit full everywhere.
The policy makes one think there are many jobs for people. |

It can be done, just that most companies don’t do it… The advice was just to be on d safe side.. Converting is stressful and can take time, but doesn’t mean it can’t be done ✅ Thank you for the information. I already have vv but wanted to know if the policy is worth pursuing or to continue to sit in the pool. I applied for this vv in 2020 and was pleasantly surprised to get a passport submission request. Someone showed me the policy so I am thinking about whether to take advantage of it. 1 Like |

Most people doing survival job already have work permit as studemt or resident...working with a tourist visa is illegal in canada and most employer will not want to break the law and getting a cash job to surive in canada is not easy ..do ur research well so you not stranded in canada on a tourist visa So why the policy that people on vv can convert their visa status to work permit in Canada if they can't get any job in Canada? I don't really understand the rationale behind this policy if employers aren't willing to employ people on vv. 1 Like |

Chux911: Yea..... you're right in that regard But that is why you have to settle for survival jobs and get the Canadian experience before applying for your dream job because most employer are always looking for applicant with the Canadian experience
A lot Nigerians (PR, international students etc) do this survival jobs before they land their dream jobs So you must first of all settle for less because it's more easier to get a survival job
And when I mean survival jobs.....I mean cleaner, cashier, store attendant etc those minimum wage jobs ($15 per hour jobs)
Please, I want to know if one can apply for work permit with these survival jobs? |

josephb: Yes if you are staying for more than 6 Months, there is a Super Visa mainly for Grandparents and more.
Does it mean that visit visa without medicals will be less than 6 months? |

Emmafe: If you’ve a spouse in Canada, you can change to open work permit. If you don’t have a spouse but can secure a job with LMIA, you can change it to close work permit (the policy was just extended by 2 years). Thank you very much. |

Permit me to ask what are the advantages of vv? Is there any policy that makes vv enticing? |

Did you get a message requesting that you submit your passport? Take both the old and new passports to VFS application center. VFS will guide you on what to do. I sent the data page of the old one and the new passport. I sent those by courier, not in person. |

He will get a new passport and then update her application records by uploading the data page of the new passport through the IRCC webform. I am in this position. The passport has already expired. How long do I have to wait after raising the webform before submitting the passports for visitor's visa? |
