A record-breaking 20.8 million tourist visited Canada in 2017 to enjoy the many opportunities our country has to offer, including visiting family and friends. If you wish to come to Canada for a temporary purpose like a vacation or to visit family or friends, you may need a Canada Visit Visa / Temporary Resident Visa (TRV), unless you are a citizen from a “visa exempt” country.
An electronic Travel Authority (eTA) is a new entry requirement for visa-exempt foreign nationals travelling to Canada by air that is electronically linked to your passport. The authorization is valid for five years or until the traveller’s passport expires, whichever comes first.

Most foreign nationals planning to visit Canada need a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) to travel to Canada. Some people may only need their valid passport. Answer a few questions to find out what you need to travel to, or transit through, Canada.CLICK HERE
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”How long to process a Canadian visit visa?” open=”no”]
It is difficult to predict the time it will take the Canadian government to process your TRV applications as it can vary in different parts of the world. However, we recommend applying at least 2-3 months in advance of your planned departure from Canada in order to avoid disappointment.
The process can be completed faster with the guidance of professional legal representative. The following are common factors which could delay the processing of your application:
Incomplete applications
Medical exam required
Further background or security checks required
Criminal record
Interview required to confirm genuine nature of the visit
Further verification of documents required
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”Is it possible to extend a Visit Visa?” open=”no”]
If you are in Canada on a visitor visa and wish to apply for an extension of your stay in Canada, you need to get visitor status. You can apply for visitor status from within Canada at a Canadian immigration office. However, you should apply before the expiration of your current visitor status. As a general note, when you come to Canada as a ‘visitor’, you will be given visitor status for a six month period. If your visitor status expires but you have already applied for an extension and are waiting for your renewal, you have what is called implied status, until a final decision is made on your extension application. If your application for an extension is refused, you can apply for restoration of status, so long as your application is made within 90 days of the refusal date.

The Canadian government as security measure introduced on November 10, 2016, an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) mandatory requirement for visa-exempt nationals seeking to enter Canada via air. This process includes all transit travellers.
At present, a few exceptions exist which include US citizens. Travelers entering Canada by land or sea are also excluded from the requirement to obtain an eTA. Applicants who need a visa to Canada, such as a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) are excluded from the requirement of obtaining a separate eTA.
[/fusion_text][fusion_accordion border_size=”1″ hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility”][fusion_toggle title=”How do I apply for an eTA for travel to Canada?” open=”no”]
An electronic Travel Authority (eTA) is a new entry requirement for visa-exempt foreign nationals travelling to Canada by air that is electronically linked to your passport. The authorization is valid for five years or until the traveller’s passport expires, whichever comes first.
How do I apply for an eTA for travel to Canada?
To apply you must have a valid passport, a valid credit or debit card and an email address. It costs $7 CAD to get an eTA and only takes a few minutes to apply. Approved eTAs are valid for up to five years.

[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”What are the common reasons an eTA can be refused?” open=”no”]
For most, an eTA will take a few minutes to register. The process is done online. For others unlucky enough to have ever been arrested in their lifetime, a problem will occur. Other “problem” candidates will include those with an immigration violation in Canada, or who were previously removed, excluded or deported from Canada.
Out of the “problem applicants”, a few will be able to continue with their plans to travel to Canada, but will be referred to “secondary” upon their arrival for additional screening. For others, an eTA application will be refused and the traveler will not be able to travel to Canada, let alone obtain a boarding pass, until the matter is cleared before the Canadian consulate or embassy.
We suspect that the vast majority of denied, or “secondary referrals” will stem from a criminal conviction that occurred in the past (regardless of how long ago the offence occurred). Information about how an arrest or criminal conviction can render you “inadmissible” to Canada can be found here. Information about ways to overcome your inadmissibility, both temporarily or permanently, is also found on this website.
If you have a criminal record, or if you’ve ever been arrested (even if charges were subsequently dropped or dismissed), we urge you to consult an admissibility specialist such as our firm before applying for your eTA.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”How can a criminal record impact an eTA application?” open=”no”]
If you are a foreign national with a criminal record who needs an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA), you may have to submit a separate application for criminal rehabilitation before you apply for your eTA. Once you have received confirmation of your rehabilitation, you may apply for an eTA. If you apply for your eTA before you receive your rehabilitation, your application will be assessed based on the information currently available and may result in the refusal of your application.

At first sight, the process for applying for a TRV appears to be uncomplicated and fairly easy to navigate without any legal advice or representation. However, our experience indicates that there is a greater risk of refusal in cases where an application is not properly prepared. The evidentiary threshold is significant. Overall, you can increase your chances of receiving a favourable decision on your TRV applications with the assistance of an authorised legal representative.
[/fusion_toggle][fusion_toggle title=”How Pahl & Associates can assist with your TRV application” open=”no”]
