Ahhh....lol. See interrogation ooo, that's serious.

josephb:
Yes, the dude asked for an address and called for verification after checking online and not satisfied, the guy even checked all previous visas on all pages of current passport and previous passports on the UV light.

Mandated that the bank app should be opened, converted the naira balance to CAD and USD to CAD; He checked the USD credit card and USD debit cards thoroughly, he asked about how much cash was at hand, but didn't check the cash.

It was just more like a secondary interrogation. maybe because of the 250 webforms and mails LOOL.

Were you asked proof of funds or address you are going to at the airport ?

They never asked me for proof of funds; they only asked me where I planned to stay.

They ask questions randomly, and just because they didn’t ask me certain questions doesn’t mean they can’t ask the next person.

Nope you don't have to and the CBSA will never ask for your account number.

Print you sponsor’s updated bank statement and have the living expenses in your account. With that you’ll be fine.

I got my information here. Visit visa isn’t that difficult. Home tie, POF and Sop that’s all. If you can work on this with documents to back it up, that’s all you need.
Re: Canada Visit/tourist Visa Discussion. by Nobody: 9:23pm On Jul 03, 2023
Biko it is getting to 3yrs since I applied for a visitors visa with no update whatsoever. Can I go ahead and apply afresh for a new one?

Hello everyone,

Pls can the visiting visa be converted to work visa, if yes please share info on how to go about it.

Also if I get a 3 year visit visa, can I stay in Canada for the three years duration straight or I have to go and come back.

Thanks.

You cannot stay in canada for 3 years on visiting visa,maximum is 6 momth at a given period even cbsa officer can decide to issue you less than 6 month stay. And as per converting visiting visa to work visa it extremely difficult now to get lmia and pleaae have a backup plan should incase converting not possible.
And note immediately you stay more than 3 months without a concerte reason apart tourism then go out canada and hoping u can come back like 2 weeks ,or 2 month later,cbsa officer may refuse you enter..so plan well

Ruskov:


Even though most peeps say it's possible , I'm also one of them that say so, because of the laws put out by Canadian government ( you would not completely outrule it) it takes time to convert visit visas to work visas. However you can apply (it's encouraged) but it is best you apply with a status (PR, WP etc)

On the area of you staying 3 years straight , you go and come after 6 months.

Note if you stay beyond 3 month on tourist visa,you already diminishing you chances of future return to canada and secondary inspection may await you on ur next trip to canada

It is normal to ask for visit visa to know if you have enough for your visit but highly abnormal in case of a Student Visa.
