Are you’re waiting for a decision and need to travel to Canada?

If you submitted your application before September 7, 2021, we recommend you submit a new application via the IRCC Portal if you’re travelling for one of the following reasons:

• To unite with an immediate family member who is a Canadian citizen, person registered under Canada’s Indian Act, or permanent resident of Canada
• To unite with an immediate family member who is in Canada temporarily
• To unite with an extended family member who is a Canadian citizen, person registered under Canada’s Indian Act, or permanent resident of Canada.
• To visit on business (meeting, special event, training)
• To attend an end-of-life ceremony or funeral
• To be present during the final moments of the life of a loved one
• To provide care to a critically ill person
• To join a vessel as a marine crew member
• To assume a posting as a diplomat or to travel as an accompanying immediate family member of a diplomat arriving on posting who will also be accredited in Canada
• To handle the affairs of a victim of Ukraine International Airlines Flight PS752
• Make sure to include up-to-date information and, if possible, your previous application number.

By submitting a new application, your previous visitor visa application will be withdrawn. There is no guarantee of a refund, and you won’t receive a letter to confirm that your application has been withdrawn.
