A Temporary Resident Visa (TRV), commonly known as a visitor visa, is an official document issued by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) that allows eligible foreign nationals to travel to Canada and request entry as a visitor. It is generally required for citizens of countries that need a visa to enter Canada.

A TRV may be issued for a single entry or multiple entries, depending on the applicant’s circumstances and IRCC’s decision. Having a valid visitor visa does not guarantee entry into Canada; the final decision is made by a border services officer. Visitors must also satisfy the applicable entry requirements and generally cannot work or study in Canada without the appropriate authorization.

At SMARTVISA, we help you understand the visitor visa requirements, prepare supporting documents and present a clear, well-organized application tailored to your travel purpose. Our goal is to make the application process easier to understand and help you travel to Canada with greater confidence.

Canada’s Super Visa allows eligible parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens and permanent residents to visit their family in Canada for extended periods. Unlike a regular visitor visa, a Super Visa allows eligible visitors to stay in Canada for up to five years at a time, subject to the applicable requirements and border officer’s decision. The visa may be valid for up to 10 years, depending on the applicant’s passport and circumstances.

To qualify, applicants must meet specific requirements, including having an eligible child or grandchild in Canada who provides an invitation, meeting income requirements for the host, obtaining the required medical insurance from an eligible Canadian or approved foreign insurer, and satisfying IRCC’s admissibility criteria.

At SMARTVISA, we help families understand the Super Visa requirements, prepare supporting documents and organize their applications carefully. Our goal is to make the process clearer and help you reunite with your loved ones in Canada with greater confidence.
