What is Temporary Resident Visa

A temporary resident visa (TRV) is also known as the visitor visa. If you are a foreign national who wants to visit Canada and is coming from a non-visa exempt country, you will need a temporary resident visa. A temporary resident visa typically allows you to stay in Canada for a 6 month period maximum. If your temporary resident visa is valid for a different length of time, it will be clearly indicated on the visa. It is your responsibility to be aware of the expiry date of your visa, so that you do not overstay in Canada. You are not permitted to leave and re-enter the country, unless you apply for and receive an approved multiple entry visa.

What is a Super Visa?

You may ask, “Well what is a super visa and why would I want or need one?” “Can’t I just get a visitor’s visa?” A Super Visa is very similar to a regular Visitors Visa, the one major difference is the time period in which you are allowed inside the country. In the case of a regular Visitors Visa, you could only stay up to 6 months at a time, for example, if you are given a 10 year visa every 6 months you would have to exit the country while with a super visa you would have to exit every two years without have to renew your visa. If you have family that visits you often then it’s recommended to get the super visa, because it saves you time and money in the long run for not having to renew it constantly.
