Temporary Visa/Permits

Temporary Visa/Permits

Depending on your nationality, you may require a visa to enter Canada, known as a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV). But you may be visa-exempt and enter Canada with an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA).

Book a consultation with us today, and we can tell you whether you need to apply for a TRV or an eTA, so that you can reunite with your friends and family in Canada.

Working in Canada with a TRV or eTA

You can’t work in Canada with a TRV or an eTA, as these documents allow you to come to Canada as a tourist and stay here for a certain amount of time – depending on the type of visa you applied for. You need to apply for a Work Permit to work in Canada.

Super Visa

A super visa is a type of TRV that allows you to enter and stay in Canada for more than 6 months. There is, however, a catch – only parents and grandparents of permanent residents and Canadian citizens can apply for a super visa.

Criminal record and admissibility to Canada

Though it might be difficult, if you have a criminal record, you may still be able to enter Canada with a TRV or an eTA. But depending on how long ago the offence was committed, the type of offence, and your behaviour since you committed the offence, you may need to apply for rehabilitation, a record suspension, or a Temporary Resident Permit (TRP).
