teelady: 1. You will need to adhere to the visitor visa conditions to apply for a visitor visa. You would need to put a length of time that would appear reasonable and would not cause the visa officer to doubt that you are coming back home. For instance, if you have a job, a three weeks vacation to see your husband or a maximum of one month might appear reasonable. But, anything too far beyond that might cause the officer to be wondering how you can afford to be away for that long, and maybe you don't have anything to make you come back home. I suggest that you apply for the spousal open work permit instead. You can apply for a Social Insurance Number (SIN), apply for jobs and support your husband financially in Canada. Also, you do not need to prove that you have a job to apply for a spousal open work permit since you have a husband who is legally in Canada as a student. But the case is different with a visitor visa. With a visitor visa, you would not be able to work based on the visit visa conditions. 2. It is addressed in question one above. The length of time of your study for (a Spousal Open Work Permit) will be limited to the duration of his study permit. He can then apply for PGWP upon completion of his studies and then PR; with that, the immigration status of you guys' changes, but you will still be there legally. 3. Travel history is a factor for a visitor visa, but approval can still be granted if proof of home ties is sufficiently explained. Still, it is much better if you go for a Spousal open work permit, but you would need to prove means of financial support. Study the Spousal Open work permit thread and feel free to ask them any follow-up questions. See the link below: https://www.nairaland.com/2271485/canada-spouse-open-work-permit/141 4. Apply with your kids together as a group application. 4 Likes |

Hiya If your PR sibling will sponsor the trip you may not need to show bank statement. I’m a PR and my sister recently applied to come visit us. I put the details in an earlier post. We didn’t include her bank statements at all… almost zero travel history (we didn’t mention she’d been to the uk cos it was more than 5years ago) bcolat21: 1 Like |

@fyorgyn, That is not the norm! Your sister was just lucky, between she has 15 years working experience and she is leaving behind her husband and kids (she has strong family ties in Nigeria) Applications are treated differently depending on the Visa Officer handling it. Fyorgyn: 1 Like |

True… that’s why I put “May not need”. I understand that ours was not the norm and each person’s situation is different. Thanks for all you do ami213: 1 Like |

Hello Please how long does it take your biometrics to be updated on the portal I have done biometrics in 2018, so didn’t need to do again. I did a family application recently I noticed my husbands biometrics has been updated but mine hasn’t been updated. Don’t know if it’s because I changed my name last year and my biometrics was done with my maiden name. Please what do you advise. |
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Xyz7: 8:49pm On May 02, 2022 |
Hi everyone,which other docs is required for biometrics aside the appointment letter,biometrics letter and passport? |

Belleh: 1. A lot of Youtubers created video content explaining how to apply for visitor visa via the new IRCC portal when this was launched by IRCC last year, you can have a peep on YouTube but see if the below link helps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCVPQULwgVE&t=21s 2. See below required documents for visit visas on the link below. I choose that your mum will spend beyond 6 months, you can also select that she will spend below 6 months if that is her plan. Either ways populates the required documentations.

lizcom25: 1. Have you applied for your GCMS notes. 2. Send a concise e-mail to the MP of the region of your school to help you follow up but make sure you put all your info on the mail i.e application number, UCI, Passport number, Nationality, Date of Birth etc. to receive a fast response. 3. Keep sending periodic reminders to IRCC via webform. I don't really believe in bombarding immigrations with e-mails. maybe twice a week. All the best! 1 Like |
