I have a problem. I went to the USA for the holidays. I am an international student at University of Toronto. I have an expired TRV visa but a valid study permit till march 2011. I wanna know if they would grant me re entry to canada even though my visa is expired as I have only been to the USA? Your quick response would be greatly appreciated.


Sincerely,

Thank you for your kind reply Sir/Mam. I am worried as my classmate who just left this january 6 2011 who had an expired TRV a valid study permit, was required to apply for a new temporary resident Visa at the new york canadian immigration even though she still had a study permit, and has only traveled to the United States. the airlines wouldn't let here board the plane unless she secures a TRV. I hope they won't require me to apply for TRV since I have only gone to the US for a Visit.
