About Visitor Visa
A visitor visa also known as a temporary resident visa is an immigration document that is attached to your which passport which enables you to visit and enter Canada. Whether you are a student, a temporary worker or want to visit Canada, a visitor’s visa is required. You may also require a visitor visa if you’re transiting through a Canadian airport on your way to your final destination.There are two kinds of visitor visas:-
