IC Reveals Strategic Tips to Securing Canada Tourist Visa

March 18, 2013 - PRLog -- Many foreign nationals are now attracted to Canada and are hoping to at least visit the country to experience and take advantage of the many opportunities that await them. But what hinders their intention to come here is the lack of information on where to start and what to do next.

Desiring to see CA as a tourist, traveler, or holidaymaker?Want to visit anyone living in the “Great White North”?

Being an expert on migration greatly matters.Here’s what Illuminate Canada(IC) has to share.

Initial Processes

§  Eligibility

Just like any other foreign visitor applying for a visa, an applicant has to know first his/her eligibility and qualifications. To be qualified, he/she must:

-      Secure a passport and all other valid travel documents;

-      Be in good health condition;

-      Convince and assure an immigration officer that he/she has businesses, jobs, family, finances, and a home that would require him/her to go back to his/her country of origin;

-      Guarantee an immigration officer that he/she will leave CA at the end of his/her visit; and

-      Have sufficient money during the stay.

§  Other Requirements

An applicant may also present a temporary resident visa, results of a medical examination, and a letter of invitation.His/her criminal record and personal background will also be checked.

If someone is determined to be admissible to CA, then, it is the time for him/her to apply for a tourist visa to enter Canada legally.

It is important to note, however, that not all applicants need a visa to successfully enter CA. It depends on which country they come from.In the case an applicant is determined to be visa exempted, there are still certain requirements that he has to fulfill.

Timeline for the processing, completion, and issuance of visitor visa varies per type of application, form of application (paper or online), and visa offices worldwide.

Post-Application Processes

Applications are assessed by visa officers. They decide who to deny or invite for an interview. Proper notification comes thereafter.

-      If approved, applicant will receive the passport, documents, and the Canada tourist visa

-      If rejected, passport and other submitted documents will be returned to the applicant, along with the explanation for such refusal.

Once approved, preparation for impending arrival comes next.

Getting to CA means a lot of things—excitement, happiness, and fulfillment of one’s dream. Yet, there are innumerable instances when someone has to extend his stay either to enjoy and explore the country more or accomplish a particular task. If this is the case, CA allows this provided that there is a justifiable reason for the extension.

The government favours this intent as long as the one who applies for such extension does it lawfully. There are certain factors and terms and conditions being considered and followed in granting an extension for a visitor status.
