Visitor Record (Extend Your Stay)
More time in Canada, with your status protected.
Apply before your status expires
Most visitors are admitted for six months. Applying for a visitor record before that period ends keeps you on maintained status while IRCC decides. The application needs a genuine reason for the extension and proof you can support yourself.
Missed the deadline?
Restoration of status is available within 90 days, at extra cost and with a persuasive explanation required. Past 90 days, the options narrow quickly, get advice immediately.
