Temporary Resident Visas: Visit, Work, and Study in Canada

Canada offers various temporary resident programs to facilitate the entry of visitors, workers, and students, each contributing uniquely to the country's vibrant economy and multicultural fabric. At Canport Immigration Services, we guide you through the process of obtaining the necessary visas and permits, ensuring a smooth transition to your temporary stay in Canada.

Visitor Visa: Explore Canada with Ease

Most travelers need a visitor visa, also known as a temporary resident visa, to enter Canada. This official document, placed in your passport, signifies that you meet the entry requirements. Typically, visitors can stay for up to six months. The length of your stay will be determined by a border services officer upon arrival, who may also issue a visitor record specifying your departure date. It's crucial to apply for your visitor visa well in advance of your travel plans to avoid any last-minute complications.

Work Permit: Opportunities Await

To work in Canada, most individuals require a work permit. There are two main types:
● Employer-Specific Work Permit: Tied to one employer, location, and position.
● Open Work Permit: Allows you to work for any employer in Canada, offering greater flexibility.
Programs like International Experience Canada (IEC) provide unique opportunities for youth to gain international work experience in Canada for up to two years, with categories such as Working Holiday, Young Professionals, and International Co-op (Internship).

Study Permit: Education and Beyond

Canada is home to some of the world's leading educational institutions. To study in Canada, you must have a study permit, which requires:
● Enrollment at a designated learning institution (DLI)
● Proof of sufficient funds for tuition, living expenses, and return transportation
● Compliance with legal and health requirements
● A commitment to leave Canada upon permit expiry

Business Visitors: Short-Term Professional Stays

Business visitors can stay in Canada for up to six months without a work permit, provided they don't enter the Canadian labor market. This category includes attending meetings, conferences, and training sessions. To qualify, business visitors must prove that their primary place of business and income sources are outside Canada and meet basic entry requirements, including holding valid travel documents and proving financial sufficiency.

Event Organizers and Business Guests: Seamless Entry

If you're planning to bring business guests to Canada, follow these steps to ensure a smooth process:
1. Responsibilities and Due Diligence: Verify the credentials of your business partners.
2. Register Your Event: Get support services by registering with Canada's Special Events Unit.
3. Determine Visa Requirements: Check if your guests need a visa or an electronic travel authorization (eTA).
4. Prepare Invitation Letters: Include essential details and, if applicable, the event code.
5. Encourage Early Applications: Advise guests to apply well before booking their flights.
6. Consider Additional Requirements: Especially for high-level officials or events requiring special protocols.
