i dont understand this at all. I mean its one country, why cant you visit whereever you like within the country? People who get a US visa tavel to other states, should people be confined to one state because thats what they stated in their application? I am so confused! I am genuinely asking, please enlighten me.


Ruskov:


Of course . But Edmonton has their own international airport, why do you want to spend that sort of money? Plus if you do not have a perfect explanation for those(the stop overs) , it's very likely to raise eyebrows. Not sure of what you'd tell the immigration officers at the airport.

No, if you are transiting in just one Schengen Airport, you do not need a transit visa, but if it is more than one, a transit visa or Schengen visa is required.

Does it require a transit visa?

Thanks.Courier fee has been increased.

One way courier fee is now 30820 from 18710

Transmission fee for kid without biometric is now 16360 from 9930.

I had to pay another 30820 for the kid package.I put the kid documents in a separate envelope and put in another envelope containing the mums documents.
According to DHL,courier fee is per passport.

No that's not what I mean. Here is what I meant here :

Point of entry is NYC for instance , rather than come straight to NYC , you stop at Montana and want to "finish a business" before going to NYC, some immigration officers may be forced to start wondering , why you didn't go to NYC straight. They may be forced to start asking very irrelevant questions and what they are not supposed to and start doing some unnecessary search and check for your belongings..

I'm speaking for a personal experience I had. I travelled to one country and rather than going straight to my destination, I stopped some place else, on grounds that I wanted to see someone before going to my destination. The immigration officers started to have a belly rumble and decided to call the person I was stopping over to see. I stayed at the airport (though not confined) for extra hours due to verification and when they were clear after confirmation from the person , they came in and let me go, and handed over my passport to me.

That's what I mean, and why I'm asking..
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Newbiein2016: 2:37pm On Jul 07, 2023
Do you have the UCI and application number? Do check online if it's possible to change email address. I saw somewhere a while ago where someone did this through webform.

Ask the agent for a copy of the completed form and use this to request a change in email address.

If it's possible since you've not done biometrics, withdraw this application and do it yourself. Judging by the flippant response stating your wrong date of birth is not an issue (which it is, if not addressed), I wonder if there are no other gaps in your application.

I'm very wary of agents and it has exacerbated because of the multiple complaints I've seen on this and other travel threads, so my advise might be on the extreme end of the spectrum

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by AskGod07: 3:33pm On Jul 07, 2023
Sir/Madam, go ahead and submit your passport for tourist visa approval, closed work permit application is different to tourist.

When decision as made on your close work permit IRCC will notify you so the two visa is different .

Congratulations I kick into your testimony

Please how do you get the job for closed work? Your agent or yourself

Please how do I sort out my hotel reservation issue. I didn't receive any Hotel Reservation mail during the process of my application. And the uploaded HRS file on the old portal is not downloadable. I have already picked up my passport. Please I also sent a mail to you.
Emmafe:
Yes you can pickup in person. Go with photocopy of your int’l passport n write your tracking number on it. Time is 12-2pm but I will advise you go early to get slot, the queue can wait time can be frustrating.
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by justmoveglobal: 4:22pm On Jul 07, 2023
Have they message you that your passport is ready?
MrWalban:
Please has anyone ever successfully do their Medicals without their international passport physical copy? I have just the data page and other means of identification.


Recently got a visiting visa VFS is yet to return my passport since June 22 of paying for it. I noticed they’ve increased the fee now could this be a reason

I’m now applying for work permit and my Medicals has been requested to be submitted within 30 days.

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by nastyguy: 4:25pm On Jul 07, 2023

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by AskGod07: 4:31pm On Jul 07, 2023
You don’t need medical insurance since you are not apply for Schengen visa

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by josephb(m): 4:49pm On Jul 07, 2023
Are you doing Study or SOWP?

But I think if you apply on the IRCC portal you may not need to Flagpole.

But flagpole seems faster.

Good-luck bro.

Emmafe:
Anyone in Toronto planning to flagpole next week should please send a PM
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by josephb(m): 4:54pm On Jul 07, 2023
Lool, what you said is not correct, if you are planning to go to Canada try to prepare your mind because you cannot refuse it.

Although not everyone would be asked to show their balances back home, a CBSA officer can ask you to show your account balance; this happened to us some days back, there is no way you would refuse this bro, else you are going inside the ROOM; you know what that means?

Regards,


Hola55:


Nobody can ask you to show balance in your account,they can only ask you for cash at hand

You mentioned CBSA here, have you travelled to Canada before?

Like I said, not everyone is asked to show proof back home, it depends on the CBSA Officer and your purpose of visit.

Regards,

Hola55:


Well,for a very long time I have been traveling,non cbsa officers has demanded such from me,I don't know if you are talking from experience or someone told you.things like this only happens if you are not consistent in what they ask you

Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Ikiloba: 5:39pm On Jul 07, 2023
Yes you can reapply for any visa category...
But first I would advise you to order a gmcs note to see the reasons for visa refusal and address the situation in your tourist visa application thanks
