Introduction
Welcome to our on-line course “Apply for a Canadian Visitor Visa by Yourself”, a step-by-step online course designed to give you the knowledge, confidence, and tools to prepare a strong, complete, and convincing Visitor Visa application.
Canada offers a number of different options in the form of visas and permits, for people wanting to visit Canada or ultimately, to live there. Most of these are relatively specific and are applicable only under specific circumstances. The Temporary Resident Visa (which we sometimes hear referred to as a tourist visa) is different. There is wide range of people and situations for whom and in which the TRV will be the option of choice. While it is subject to limitations that we’ll discuss in greater detail, it is an extremely versatile option.
How This Course Will Benefit You
There are many ways to move to Canada, but sometimes you just need to be there temporarily. Whether it is to visit someone, explore job opportunities, or discuss business. In most cases you will need a temporary residence visa in order to enter and possibly re-enter Canada.
The whole point of this course is to help you begin and successfully complete the process of applying for a Canadian Visitor Visa (TRV) on your own, without having to spend a lot of money on consultants.
Why do it yourself?
Simple.
Hiring consultants or advisers is expensive.
A quick check of websites of consultants and immigration lawyers will show that they charge between $500 and $1500 to help you submit an application for a Canadian Visitor Visa.
That’s money that you don’t need to spend if you complete the process yourself.
And really, if you take a close look at what a “consultant” will do for this money, you’ll quickly see that it is nothing that with a little help and guidance you cannot do yourself. Remember, in essence the entire process of applying for a visa or permit boils down to completing forms and then organizing and uploading documents. There just is no logical reason that you should be paying huge amounts of money to have someone do that for you.
Then why a Course?
Because while you can indeed complete the process yourself, there is the proverbial “yes, but” in the mix.
Everyone will tell you that you can apply for a Canadian Visitor Visa on your own – but no one will tell you how.
And that’s why we created this course.
We believe that with the help and information provided in this course, you will be able to submit an application for a Canadian Visitor Visa that is likely to be approved, without spending thousands of dollars on consultants or advisers.
