Are there people in Canada who have applied for visitor visa while waiting for the spousal permanent residence application to be approved? |

Is the 30,000 CAD for the visit or 30,000 proof of funds? 30,000 CAD is a lot to spend in 3 weeks. chuksvin: |

Ah. I will never persistently discourage anyone from doing anything they want to better their lives. However, the truth is Canada's visa processes are somewhat clear, and getting difficult. That is why I always advise people to: - learn french - have a good idea of the laws Before they try to come to Canada. It is basically impossible to easily change visitor visa to permanent résidence or even work visa. The ways I know are: - agent gets you a job in a faraway place paying minimum wage that you have to do for 2 years or more. They charge around 10k CAD for this. The best agents for this approach are Indian agents. Be ready to move anywhere. - you have a highly sought after skill: software, nursing, healthcare, french speaking ability - you are seeking to marry. Someone you know, a genuine marriage setup or even a fake marriage setup. Even fake marriages cost 15k or more. And the IRCC will sniff out those who do fake marriages. However they will only make a case against you when you apply for something else, like citizenship. The above are possible ways to convert that I know of. Anyone who advises that you overstay your visa then apply for asylum only wants to make money out of you. You could apply for asylum, they may even give you a work or study permit. However, in the end, the asylum will be denied. Perhaps even with a 5 year ban. Remember that any information that Canada has is shared with USA, Australia, EU. So if you misrepresent yourself in a Canadian application, almost every other application to any other top country you make will be denied (depending on the misrepresentation). Good luck everyone.

I will just clarify: If you explain in your letter of explanation that you are only coming to visit and go back. Then you get a work permit. When you apply for permanent residence or another thing, they may ask you why your plans changed, at the discretion of the officer handling your file. So you had better have a reasonable reason as to why your visit changed from sight seeing to job search. I will advise people who seek to convert: Try and travel back to Nigeria soon after you get your work permit. So you could explain that you visited came back, and someone you met wanted to hire you because they liked you so much. Phemos: 2 Likes |

mikeayus: Have you traveled to Canada or the US before, or do you have a valid visa from any of the countries? If yes, then your application is under the CAN+ (CAN plus) visa program. If your application is screened for the CAN+ visa, then your case requires less documentation. The CAN+ visa application program is for: 1. Those who have traveled to Canada in the past 10 years. 2. Those who still have a valid Canadian temporary resident visa. 3. Those with US visas or who have traveled to the US in the past. The visa applications of these applicants are grouped under the CAN+ (CAN plus) visa category. The probability to get a visa is high if your application is grouped under this category because less documentation will be requested from you. The main document they will require from those whose applications fall under CAN+ is their travel passport. The other documents are optional, they are not necessary or compulsory. You don't have to upload any documents in this section. |

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by meee: 1:39pm On Oct 24, 2023 |
Thanks for this info: But no matter how much less documentation this requires from me. I'm suprised they are not even requesting for a passport photograph< How then will the visa be processed? This is all that is holding me back from paying becasue I'm on the final lap and want to be sure i'm on the right path so i don't get denied for a silly mistake. Ashirioluwa: |

I applied for a visa for one of my juniors this past August, and luckily the email for the passport request came in a few minutes ago, but I checked the application tracker status and found no information as per the visa. Has this scenario happened to anyone before? 1 Like |
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by vickyehi: 2:22pm On Oct 24, 2023 |
Phemos: If you tell your border officer this, you will be on the next flight back to Nigeria. The only purpose to be stated is VISIT. Stick with your reason for visiting. Even when you got your visitor visa as a spouse of a PR holder under special policy, you are still expected to state your purpose at the border as just a VIsITOR. Meaning you should clearly state the date you will return back. No one will come and look for you on that date. So just state it and keep it moving. Don’t be unfortunate to yourself. 5 Likes |

congrats, this is awesome. Can you please elaborate on this? Which portal was used for this "special instruction/policy"? What did you write as the purpose of your visit? and what documents were submitted in addition to the AOR for the spousal sponsorship application? Please kindly share your timeline as well.
