A visa extension allows you to legally extend your stay in Canada beyond the initial period granted on your visa or permit. Depending on your status in Canada—whether you’re a visitor, student, or worker—the requirements and process for extending your visa may vary. It’s crucial to apply for an extension before your current visa or permit expires to avoid any complications, such as being required to leave the country or falling out of status.
Visitor Visa Extension (Visitor Record): If you’re in Canada on a visitor visa and wish to stay longer, you can apply for a visitor record. This document allows you to extend your stay as a visitor in Canada, but it does not permit you to work or study. It’s essential to apply for a visitor record at least 30 days before your current visa expires.
Study Permit Extension: International students who need more time to complete their studies in Canada can apply for a study permit extension. This extension is necessary if your program duration extends beyond the validity of your current study permit. Failing to extend your study permit on time can result in losing your student status and the ability to continue studying in Canada.
Work Permit Extension: If you’re working in Canada on a temporary work permit and wish to continue your employment, you’ll need to apply for a work permit extension. This process may involve securing a new job offer or obtaining a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA), depending on the type of work permit you hold. Timely application is crucial to maintaining your legal work status in Canada.
Restoration of Status: If your visa or permit has already expired, you may still be able to restore your status within 90 days of losing it. However, this process can be complex, and it’s essential to act quickly. At Doorstep Immigration, we can help you navigate the restoration process and explore your options for staying in Canada.
Navigating the visa extension process can be daunting, but with Doorstep Immigration by your side, you can be confident that every detail will be handled professionally and efficiently. Here’s how we guide you through the process:
