Temporary Resident Visa

Immigrate to Canada on Super Visa 

IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO ENTER CANADA, YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE A CANADIAN VISITOR VISA (TEMPORARY RESIDENT VISA)

If you want to visit Canada for limited time, Canada offers three types of temporary resident visas i.e., Super Visa, Visit Visa Work Visa.

Temporary Resident Visa 

WHAT IS TEMPORARY RESIDENT VISA?

Foreign nationals may enter Canada as temporary residents with a visitor visa. Both multiple entry and single entry visitor visas are available in Canada. The main distinction between these two categories is that a single entry visa only allows you to travel to Canada once. A multiple entry visa, on the other hand, enables you to travel to Canada more than once. For instance, if you visit Canada on a single entry visa and then leave the country, you will need another visa to return. However, a multiple entry visa allows you to return to Canada more than once.
