Yearly, Canadian immigration welcomes thousands of immigrants across its borders seeking to stay in the country temporarily. Many come for various reasons like exploiting the unlimited job opportunities in Canada, studying at any of the high-quality educational institutions, or simply visiting a loved one.
The temporary visa status makes migrating to Canada for a limited time to visit, study, or work possible for foreign nationals. With the visa, visitors have temporary access to the life-changing resources and amenities that Canada has to offer. As visitors, they have a temporary period to remain in Canada for a specific purpose, when that time elapses, the temporary visa often expires.
Three Categories for Temporary Visa Status
- Study Permit
The study permit is a travel visa for foreign scholars which “permits” them access to study at any Designated Learning Institute (DLI) in Canada. A large percentage of foreign students require study permits to first, travel out of their country, let alone study in Canada.
- Visitor Visa
The Visitor Visa is another travel document issued to foreign guests from visa-required countries and requested by the immigration officers at the point of entry. Also known as Temporary Resident Visa, Visitor visas have a limited validity of six months after which it is illegal for the visitor to remain in Canada.
- Work Permit
As it implies, the Canadian work permit is a travel document issued to foreign nationals permitting them to jobs within the country. Immigrants generally need a work permit to work in Canada which makes it inevitably important for foreign workers to get them.
What Program Suits You Best?
A Canadian Immigration Program is only considered suitable for the recipient when it fits into their goals for coming into the country. Applicants can only get the best of a program when they intend to study, live, or work in Canada. Canadian Immigration Program offers over 60 different immigration options to individuals trying to migrate into Canada. Getting an immigration lawyer or advisory firm like CanUS Immigration would help applicants get the best solutions.

FAQs
Permanent residents of Canada and Canadian citizens can travel within and outside the country freely for as long as they wish. Foreign visitors including workers, students, and tourists need a TRV to stay in Canada over a period.
No. Visitors coming into Canada from visa-exempt nations do not need TRV to visit Canada. People visiting from other countries, however, need to apply for TRP to be in Canada.
No, there are a few exceptions. Students with plans to study in Canada for less than six months do not need Study Permits. Courses or programs exceeding six months, however, require study permits.
Foreign nationals with the intention to work in Canada can explore several work permit options. In most cases, the Canadian employer would need to convince the IRCC that there’s currently not one permanent resident or citizen available to occupy that position.
