Whether you’re visiting family, exploring Canada as a tourist, or bringing your parents for an extended stay, these temporary visas provide a legal, structured pathway to enter and remain in Canada.
Visitor Visa (Temporary Resident Visa — TRV)
Required for nationals of non-visa-exempt countries travelling to Canada for tourism, visiting family or friends, or short stays. A standard visitor visa permits stays of up to 6 months.
- Valid passport from a non-visa-exempt country
- Proof of sufficient funds for the duration of stay
- Ties to your home country showing intent to return (e.g. employment, property, family)
- No criminal or medical inadmissibility
How we can help: We prepare your visitor visa application and help you present a strong case to the visa officer.
Super Visa
A long-stay multi-entry visa for parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens or permanent residents. Unlike a standard visitor visa, a Super Visa allows stays of up to 5 years per visit and remains valid for 10 years — making it the preferred option for families who want extended time together without waiting for the Parents & Grandparents Program (PGP).
- Inviting child or grandchild must be a Canadian citizen or PR and meet minimum income thresholds
- Applicant must hold private Canadian medical insurance of at least $100,000 coverage
- Proof of relationship between the applicant and the inviting family member
- Meet standard admissibility requirements
How we can help: We handle the financial and insurance documentation and submit a complete Super Visa application on your behalf.
Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA)
Nationals of visa-exempt countries (except U.S. citizens) flying into Canada need an eTA linked electronically to their passport. Valid for 5 years or until passport expires. Most approvals are received within minutes online.
- Required for air travel only — not needed when entering by land or sea
- Costs $7 CAD — apply online before travelling
How we can help: We assist applicants whose eTA has been refused or flagged due to admissibility issues.
Business Visitor
Foreign nationals conducting short-term business activities in Canada — such as attending meetings, negotiating contracts, or participating in conferences — may enter as business visitors without a work permit, provided they are not entering the Canadian labour market and their source of income remains abroad.
How we can help: We advise on the business visitor vs. work permit distinction and prepare your documentation accordingly.
