- Planning to visit Canada anytime soon? No problem as I have taken half your burden away. Here's a comprehensive visual demonstration showing you the steps on how to apply for a Canada Visitor's Visa. There has been recent updates by IRCC to the application process and it's even more improved.
Let me know if you have any questions in the comment session.
Kindly note that if you are authorizing IRCC or the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) to release your information to your designated representative (someone other than yourself), you have to submit this form (IMM5744). Its called the Consent for an Access to Information and Personal Information Request form which can be downloaded using the link below...

Cheers,

Dear Adaora! You are an angel. I just renewed my US visa for summer, I had applied for a TRV that was granted for one year only and I visited in 2019. I am aware they updated the process for TRV application and in a bid to renew my visa, I wanted to know the process to reapply. I Haven’t really found anything concrete on UA-cam for this 2022 process because it is quite different from what I used in 2019. I contacted someone for it so that I do not make mistakes and she charged me $750, I bounced with speed. Then boom I came across your channel as I was checking frantically. This was timely. Thank you for great content. I have subscribed and I plan on sharing your videos to others in my shoes. God bless you.
Thank you so much for your feedback. Would love to know how your application went after doing it yourself
Hello Adaora, i am so happy i found your video, i have a friend who live in Pakistan, we have been talking to each other for over 2 years, he want to come to Canada to visit with me, he applied for a Visa and was denied, can you help me, I live in Buffalo, i think if he come to Canada it would be a lot easier for him, please help me, my name is Diane, thank you God Bless!
Hello Diane,
Sorry to hear about his refusal. There are several factors as to why he was refused. It's best to order GCMS Notes to see the reason(s) for refusal so that you both can know what to look out for when he's applying next.
Here is a video I made on how to order GCMS notes

@@angellady6959 Visitor's visa is not the only option to come to Canada. There are several other options such as study visa, work visa, or any of the Permanent Residence Pathways if you qualify. Check the website for all the eligibility criterias
Hello,thanks for ur clips
You're welcome
@@AdaoraUzoma plz can I ask u a question?
Thank you for this video. Please, are foster siblings considered family members for this application?
Thank you so much Ada, please how do I upload the imm 5257e ( application for temporary visa form) and the family information after filling it?
Hi mam thanks for this video. I am little bit confused about a section where should I upload my previous travel history ( visas)? May I upload it on travel history section only ? Or do I have to upload it on both travel history and passport section?
On passport uploading section it’s written -
If you have a passport, you must provide a copy of;
• the page that shows your birth date and country of origin, and
•any pages with stamps, visas or markings.
Hello, can we 've an elaborate elaborate video on employment and work activities? Thank you.
Will keep that in mind
the cover letter and the explanation letter where should i add them exactly? Thank u a lot for making these kind of videos
You can add them under "Supporting Documents"
Thank you Adaora. Subscribed! When applying TRV on behalf of our child. It asked "What would you like to do in Canada and how long would you stay..." should we choose "visit' or "move there"? and "less than 6 mo." or "permanentaly"? Since we have a child borned in China and we are Canadian PR. We would like to bring our child with us keep living in Canda. Thanks in advance!
Hello,
Thank you for subscribing. If you want your child to come live with you permanently, then choose that option. It's up to you to pick whatever duration you want your child to stay...
Hello. Thank you for making this video VERY HELPFUL. QUESTION: If someone wants to renew their Canadian visitors visa what's the process to do that, do we fill out the same application in this video?
Hello, my apologies for the delayed response. If you want to extend your stay in Canada, you have to apply online (get a visitor record).
If you're already outside of Canada, you must meet the following entry requirements to return to Canada. Follow the steps by using this link
below
www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/extend-stay/return.html
Thank you Adaora. You are indeed Adaora God bless you.
Please, what is the requirement of document size?
after completing the application of the applicant has never done a biometric how do they actually go about setting up an appointment for it also is it covered in the application fee or it’s a separate fee?
This was indeed timely. Thank you so so very much. Quick question, will my cousin be considered a family member enough to invite me ??
Hello Sawa,
Your cousin would fall under an extended family member not "immediate". To show proof of extended family relationship, you must provide a signed statutory declaration.
For full details on how to get statutory declaration, visit

Dear Adora i saw your video, its very useful but i have some questions can you please help me to out from this problem
1. Is there any requirement to fill the forms in Capital Letters?
2. In form 5645 (Family Information Form), to fill the names of family members in native language--- shall I fill all the forms in English, print it, and then write the names in native language by hand and then scan it to upload?
3. In form 5645 (Family Info Form) there is no option of validation, shall I take the printout of filled form and sign and then scan and upload it for online application.
4. Form 5713 (Family Representative Form), can’t be saved on computer after filling, so how it will be filled? Shall I take the print out of the filled form, sign, scan and then upload? And me working in another country and my spouse another country then how i can take her signature.
5. The main application form 5257 has the option of validation but there is a signature box also. Shall I take print out of this also, sign, scan and then upload?
Hi. I'm applying at the IRCC portal for Visitor Visa and I see no IMM 5257 form in the required document. Is it really not require? thank you.
what of the IMM 5256, IMM 5257 and IMM 5645 forms?
which should be submitted in additional for the visitor’s visa?
Thank you, I have worked with Canadian force in Afghanistan, I applied through this portal, is it ok? Second when I applied they didn't gave me my all the data pdf file for print, how to get that? 2 Question!
Plz after submission. What next? How would you know if you’re granted a visa.
Thanks so much for this video it was really helpful.
In most cases, your application will go through these general steps.
After submission, they’ll
- review your application to make sure it’s complete
- Once you pay the biometrics fee, IRCC will send you a letter that tells you how to give your biometrics (if applicable)
- they will receive and review your biometrics after you give them a collection point (if applicable)
- they will then decide if you’re allowed to come to or stay in Canada (they could do a background check)
- decide if you’re eligible to apply to work, study or visit Canada
- tell you how to get a medical exam (if you need one)
- decide if you need to go to an interview
And also tell you of the final decision on your application

Hi I hope you see this, and respond on time. So I'm actually trying to apply for visit to go see a fiancé who's a Canadian citizen and I'm stuck on this particular section of 'countries or territories of residence'. Issue is I'm based in UAE where I have live sine 2018. I don't just know how to navigate the said section. Thanks
Where to upload photos i don’t see that option in my portal?
Dear Adaora.. What are the supporting documents I need to provide for visitor's visa?
Thanks very much for this video. It's really very helpful for me..
Hi Blessing,
The documents you need to submit with your application depends on why you're travelling to Canada.
Kindly visit this link and follow the steps
www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/supporting-documents.html
Thanks for this information,is very detailed.l just got my study visa approval,my question is can I apply for visitors visa for my family from inside Nigeria because my school starts in September and presently in Nigeria
Hi, when I was applying for a Canadian visitor visa . I realized that I made a mistake by clicking "NO" and that I have never travelled outside my country. Yet in the passport it clearly shows that I have travelled outside my country because it shows that I got my passport from outside my country. Please advise on what I should do now because the application is under process whenever I check it in the ircc portal. Should I go a head and rise an issue or I should wait for them to respond to me?
Please concerning the work details, where you are asked to fill in your work since 10 years. What if 2012, I just started schooling in d university, should I fill that in 2012-2017 I was in university?
Hi Evelyn,
You just answered your question. If you were a student during that time frame, put in details of your school, etc
I'm not seeing a section for digital photo?
Thank you so much for this video, however, i have an issue moving past "activities" page on the IRCC portal, i keep getting "error after filling out the employment history for the past 10years". Please help!
If you use characters any where it won't go e.g/
Hello Adoura, im from Haiti.
Thank you for this informative video, just want to ask something, is it ok if i use the old format for Tourist Visa?
because i noticed the one you posted was new. God Bless and will support your next video!🙏💖
Hello,
I wouldn't recommend an old format when there's a new format in place.
Where did you find this new format??
hello, thanks for the video, I am going to fill the form on behalf of my mom and my brother, on the video part 13:40(tell us about what you'll do in Canada)should I write it behalf of myself or my mom and my brother?
On behalf of your mom & brother
Hi work duration is from 2013 till date. after I keyed that in its not been taking me to the next page. please help
Hello Adaora. Thank you so much for this video. It’s very explanatory and straight forward.
However, I have few questions to ask as I’m a bit confused about the beginning. Here is my question.
I got my own visa last year May. However, I would love to apply for my daughter. She’s 11months old. How do I go about it.
I tried logging in to my own profile and applying directly from there for her, is that okay to do, or I should apply for Her separately (opening her own profile and going through the invitation code process).
2. If I apply using my own profile, will have to go through the invitation code process to get to my profile to apply for her?
I hope my questions are not confusing. Thank you 🙏🏽
this is not important, but the part of the process that is considered very important is a good bank statement, how it looks like, a cover letter, explaining the purpose of travel, and travel Itinerary details and or Travel Plan. If you have, then show us in details.
Point of correction, every part of this video is highly important.
Greetings to you..
On the get instruction for ur situation.
For someone dat wants to come as a tourist, dats de person doesn't have any one in Canada or any letter for conference..
How would de person go about it cus der is no option for tourist der?
Hi, if you're coming as a tourist,
Kindly follow the steps using this link

Please could be de problem of me be unable to submit the application.. I have finished filling and uploading all documents but to submit it , is writing transaction declined..
What could be the problem?

Thanks very much for your video, is been very informative to me. Please do you hv to buy a ticket before you apply the visitor’s visa
You're welcome. What do you mean by ticket? Asin flight ticket? U have to get your visa first before booking your flight..
Thanks very much 🙏🙏🙏
Hi Adaora Thanks for the video. I am a businessman but in the activity, there is no option to choose self-employed what should I do?

Hi Mam, Me and my husband got work permit visa. I need to file visitor visa for my baby and my mom . Can I submit separate application for both or can I create a single application for each . My concern in creating single application will they reject both the application if one is not right. What do you suggest?
Hi, thank you soo much for this video. question though, do i have to be vaccinated to travel to Canada?
Hello,
Yes, you have to be fully vaccinated
what should we select if someone is planning to visit to canada as a tourist under detailed instruction for your situation, as i am not seeing tourist visa as a option under this
If you are not seeing tourist visa option, it simply means it is not available at this time. Kindly check the www.cic.gc.ca frequently as they seem to update the website regularly..
Hi Adaora. I just wanna ask if my husband will sign in also in a separate on IRCC ? We will apply together. I am a principal applicant because I have a sister in Canada.
hey Adora, my aim is to visit as a tourist but I have no option in the first page ! so can I click reunite with family members and then change it to tourist ??
Hello,
Uniting with family members and visiting as a tourist visit are two different things because they will need to see proof of who you want to reunite with as they will have to write an invitation letter for you. If the tourist option is not available in the application, then you'll have to check back at a later time.
hi thanks for the tutorial i have a doubt about CONSENT PERSONAL INFORMATION 38:17 what type of document do i have to upload there can you guys help me pls.
Hi,
Click on this link below to access the form. By signing this form, you are authorizing IRCC to release your information to your designated representative (someone other than yourself)

@@AdaoraUzoma thank u very much
You're welcome
Great video. I can't get past the work/activities history section. I have filled everything and not left any gaps. However, when I save and continue, I get an "unknown error message." I've tried many ways, refilled and still the same. Anyone faced this problem and how did you solve it?
Same issue I'm having. Anyone found a way out of this?
Please Adaora what is the different between IRCC and GCKEY for my visiting Visa application
IRCC is a secured web platform in which immigration applicants and their representatives can electronically conduct business with IRCC.
Note that this portal is separate from your IRCC secure account setup using GC KEY.
A GC Key is an authentication service where u can set up a username and password that allows you to communicate securely with online government services.
is imm 5257 form not required for visitor’s visa?
it seems you didn’t talk of it
Hi mam thank you very much .but I stuck on imm 5476 form .I am applying for my sister in law.there are three page for the form but I can upload only one if I try to load 2nd form then I have to delete first form .any solution plz or you can make another video of documents upload plz
I followed the step by step but after receiving the code in my email I'm getting an error which said I should try again, I tried but is still getting the same error. where it asked for phone I used my jamaican # and selected other, was that incorrect
Well, sorry to hear that. I'm not sure why it's saying incorrect. Make sure you're putting in the right number with the right country code. That's the much I can say...
Good work, if I may ask what if you don't have family there
The only options available to visitors outside of Canada at this point is those who want to reunite with a family member(s) and those coming on a business trip. There's no option for tourists. I'd recommend to keep checking the Government or Canada website as it updates very frequently
Thanks Adaora. I am seeing your video for the first time and I have subscribed. I have a question please. What if I am coming to attend a conference, how do I fill the section on information about the person you are coming to visit?
On the immigration website, you'd qualify under business visa if you are just coming for a conference.
To qualify you must show that:
1. You plan to stay for less than 6 months
2. You dont plan to enter the Canadian labor market
3. Your main place of business or source of income and profits is outside of Canada
Business visitors includes meetings, special events, or trainings for a few days or weeks.
That being said, since you'd be coming for a conference, what you need to provide is proof of invitation that you were invited for a conference (the company/organization hosting the conference should be able to do that).
Invitation letter should include your name, reason for coming, the date(s) , accomodation details and the location that this event would be taking place as well as how you'll be paying for stuff.
Using that invitation letter provided to you, you'd upload it in the "Supporting Documents" section of your application and that's how you'll apply.
@@AdaoraUzoma This is very helpful. Thank you so much. I appreciate. Daalu
@@AdaoraUzoma please what are the supporting documents I need to provide for visitor's visa ma?
Hello Adaora - thanks for the video.. one question, I faced a lot of problems when uploading the documents because of the size, I had quite a few supporting documents with sizes more than 2MB and tried all the possible solutions to compress it but no luck. how to address that?
The only way to address it is to upload the exact file size required. To further assist, there are websites online that can help you compress your files without losing any of your primary data. Just type "file compressor" on google to find out the ones available
@@AdaoraUzoma thank you, tried all of them
Dear where to upload cover letter in this ...is it necessary??
I am having problem regarding education and work section.. I m getting error and i dont know why... Can anyone please guide me
Thank you very much I applied for Canada visit visa after watching your video. I have applied through IRCC portal. I applied on 18th October but still no update for biometric. A friend of mine applied through GCKey account and he also got visa very fast. I want to know from you that GCKey Account and IRCC portal account is different? My friend said that I have applied in wrong way. He told me to apply for GCKey Account. Did I do something wrong? Please let me know I will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Adaora. Your video is timely.
Bless your Heart.
Do you think a spouse applying to come to visit his wife(who is an international student) would need an SOP/LOE?
The spouse can write an (LOE) if they choose to but better still, the wife who is already studying in Canada can write an invitation letter stating the reason why her husband wants to visit.
Invitation letter should include purpose of visit, length of stay, location, relationship ( marriage certificate attached) and also who will sponsor his visit for the duration of time he will be in canada (Proof of funds have to be attached). Her invitation letter will already detail all these information so there might be no need for the husband to write another LOE OR SOP for himself.
For instance:
When my parents visited canada for the 1st time for my graduation ceremony, I wrote an invitation letter for them. They didn't need to write their own LOE because mine already befits the purpose of their coming.
If you are coming to study or work, it's different. A LOE or SOP will be necessary in this regard.
I hope this explanation helps...
@@AdaoraUzoma Absolutely spot on. Thank you. The example helped. Bless your heart.
Hello Damilare, I recently uploaded a video on "How to Write an Invitation Letter for Canada Visitor Visa". Thought it might be of interest to you...
@@AdaoraUzoma Perfecto. I would do well to see that video. Thank you for always Adaora.
@@AdaoraUzoma please could you share the link to this?
Hey Adaora. May the good lord continue to bless you. This is well detailed. Please I have a question; I have a family friend in Canada whom I planned on visiting and using her address for my application (she’s a permanent resident though and married), do I need to use her bank statement or can I use mine or use both? I’m a current student in USA.
Will really appreciate a swift feedback 🙏🙏
If she's the one sponsoring your visit, then she can provide her bank statement. Otherwise, if you are going to be your own sponsor, then provide yours
Thank you for this video Adaora
Please if I’m applying to visit Canada with my family just to visit a friend. I don’t have a family member can I still apply for a tourist visa because the page on “why are you applying to Canada” does not seem to cover my situation. I usually pick none of the above and I’m not able to do the online application eventually
Hello, I don't think immigration is currently accepting tourist visa applications at the moment. Those coming as visitors are people who have family members, are coming on business trips such as conferences, etc. It will sure u all that on the list. You will have to keep checking their website regularly for updates.
there 2 places to apply form 1) is GC key, it says 59 days left to submit and form 2) IRCC portal it says 32 days left to submit??? please please explain these, i am in trouble now.
This tells me you are doing 2 applications at the same time. Any reason why? Cic has an obligation to avoid duplication of work or unnecessary cost in the process of an application. If both are submitted at the same time, both applications will be held by Cic until processing of the initial application is complete.

I am not going for visit i am going for Tourist so what do I click please
hey Adaora so this method i do not have to download the imm5257?
Hello Jennifer,
Great observation and valid question.
The form - IMM527 is not necessary for this type of visitor's visa. However, it might apply to other types of visitor's visa or TRV (Temporary Resident Visa).
How you would know is that it would populate towards the end of the application where it would ask you to download the IMM5257 form and upload it after filling it out.
Hi, really great video, I have one question, I have been to Canada on a study permit and also work permit, but the question asks if I’ve held a Canadian visitor visa in the past 10 years, so still I should put no?
If you've previously held a Canadian visitors visa before getting the study and work visa, you'll have to indicate it because regardless of your answer, they already have a history of your record and they will know if you indicate otherwise
I’ve only applied for study permit and then got a work permit after completing studies, but not visitor, I will put no just to be on the safe side 🙏🏽 I hope this will not affect, thank you so much for replying , new subscriber here
@@brijb1505 Then your answer would be No because you've never held a Canadian visitor's visa before. Thanks for subscribing 💃🏾💃🏾
Hi Adaora, thanks for this video. I want to ask about flight reservations. Is this necessary for a visitor's visa? How do I do that knowing that I can't keep flight reservation for long.
Thank you
Well my personal opinion is never to reserve/book your flight ✈ before your visa is approved. Some people argue that it motivates the visa officer to know that you have genuine intention of visiting for the duration you stated in your application. Contrary to their opinion, I've seen people who have been denied visa and now face the risk of losing their flight money.. either because the airline refused to refund entire flight fee or they've agreed to refund partial payment. That being said, the ball is in your court to decide what to do.

hi adaora , tysm for all your efforts,which option to select if we apply for parents visa for convocation , i am a student, plz help ty.
Hi Kaur,
That would be visitor visa for them to reunite with you or their child who is graduating. I made a video on how to properly write an invitation letter. You can use that as a template
You have show us drop down of all the option in the document section except the employee . Please also show us the drop down option from them if possible .
Where did u see the drop down arrow for employment?

Nice video great content 👏 but please how can I pay for the application fee to move to submit section cos I try multiple times yesterday with my gtb debit card but keeps getting declined
Hi, the portal accepts credit cards and prepaid cards from Visa, Mastercard, America, American Express, JCB and Union Pay. If your debit card from GTB isn't working, u need to get a Mastercard or Visa card.
@@AdaoraUzoma oh okay, thanks for your response
Hi Adaora, thank you for uploading this video. It is helpful. I see no mention of the IMM 5256 form or 5645 form. However I see both mentioned on the IRCC website for visitor visa documents. Is exempt from the online process and perhaps only used for paper applications? Do you have any information on this? Thanks
The IMM5256 is not a legal document. It's an instruction guide for those looking to apply for visitor visa, transit visa or super visa on paper (NOT ONLINE). Once you have read the guide, you can prepare your application package and must select the country/territory from which you will be applying to get your local visa office instructions.
Visit these 2 links below for more details on that:

The IMM5645 (Family Information Form) is only applicable to those who have family members so they are required to include that in their application.

@@karltonoruerio9817 @Karlton Oruerio After you pay the biometric fee, you’ll get a letter confirming that you need to give your biometrics and telling you where you can go.

Hi, someone must not invite you before u can come to Canada. There are other routes you can explore such as study, work, permanent residence, etc. Kindly visit the immigration website www.cic.gc.ca to learn more.

Thanks for this. But you didn't tell us how much is the application fee. So please how much is it, is it refundable or non refundable, the your example was based on invitation from a family. What about going as a tourist. Are they chances too?
Hi, the application fee is a $100.00 CAD non-refundable. Here is a link to see a list of all application fees. eservices.cic.gc.ca/epay/order.do?category=17
The video i made is intended for those visiting their family. If you are visiting for a different reason such as tourism, kindly select the appropriate option while making your application.
@@AdaoraUzoma thx so much for this information an agent charged me 4000 dollars for this process. The process is easy to follow and apply. My worry is I don't have a credit card to make application payment
hi dear Adaora,please I watched your video and I try to apply for the visit Visa. but in the process of creating email I was ask to put in telephone number. I choose other because I'm not in Canada but I couldn't sign up after I put my Nigeria code and number.. please how do I go about this.
Hi Adekunle,
Sorry to hear that. I should work.. Rather than choosing "other", were you not able to see Nigeria listed on the list of countries?
In fact madam u are simply the best i went through all ur response to each question they asked u, you are d best but my question is, i have submitted my application since 3month ago i have done my biometric and the conference has passed its any hope?
I can't guarantee anything. You might still be lucky to get the visa. Would love an update on their decision, if that's ok.
How did you pay for the application fee Kindly put me through
Hi sir
Why there is no invitation letter option if we are inviting my siblings
Hi Adaora,
thanks for this super useful video,
I just have a question. the supporting documents like Funds (proof) are more than one document usually and I see the upload link just letting me to upload one document. after uploading one, you just can change it by another document! the question is how can I upload multiple document for one specific document name ?
many thanks
Hossein
Hi Hossein,
The best way to upload all your POF is to do it as a zip file. The way, all the pages will compressed in one document and can be uploaded as a file. I hope this helps
Hello Adaora, i sent you information on my friend who lives in Pakistan, he want to visit with me, please help me to bring him to Canada, i live in Buffalo, i think it would be easy for Naseer to come to Canada please help me, God Bless! Diane
Hello Diane,
This is the second time I'm responding to your message. There are several factors as to why he was refused. It's best to order GCMS Notes to see the reason(s) for refusal so that you both can know what to look out for when he's applying next.
Here is a video I made on how to order GCMS notes

You can use cam scan app to combine all docuemtns in a one file, It will also help to compress the file size along with maintain highest quality
@@JassiKhurana Thank you
Hello Ma, I’m an Nysc Corper applying for a VV to reunite with a sibling. My question is, as a Corper I do not have a buoyant account, I plan on receiving a “gift deed” of let’s say 2m from my brother to my account to serve as proof of funds. Would this raise any red flag? Do you think 2m is enough funds for POF as a visitor? My brother would also be the one sponsoring my stay but I understand I need to have some personal money in my account as well. Kindly advise 🙏
Visa officers critically look out for ties in your home country such as proof of sustainability employment, etc that would compel you to go back home after you're done visiting your brother. You can include up to 6 months of your bank statement to showcase that. Once you've been able to cover that gap, then I believe you're fit to apply.
Hello please I wanted to know that after applying do u have to wait for ur visa to be approved before u can withdraw the money from ur account
Yes, of course...
How many days after applying for visit visa and paying the fee will I get the biometrics letter?
After you pay the biometric fee, you’ll get a letter confirming that you need to give your biometrics and telling you where you can go. How fast you get the letter depends on how you apply and when you pay for your biometrics fees. For more info visit :

Hi Adaora, do you know if I still need to upload the forms - 5257 and 5654 when applying in the new portal?
which country are you from?
