Hello people,

I am applying for a visitor visa for a short term part time study in Canada (3 months)
I am applying online so I was answering the eligibility questions and in the personal document checklist it's written that I am required to provide a Recent Education Transcript.. is this usually needed for applying a visitor visa for a short term study?

Also the letter of invitation is required.. I will be staying in a hotel not with someone inviting me - what should I do in this section?

Also, I received a letter of offer from Simon fraser university that I have been accepted to apply for their workshop after passing their assessment test.. so is this letter of offer regarded as letter of acceptance ???

Lastly, in the purpose of travel its written that I can provide proof of medical appointment - Is the medical appointment even required for a visitor visa ??

THank you ;) :)

Those are documents that are not requested for TRVs... most likely you will like to double check where you got that checklist. Make sure to use the tool:

Don't answer the questionnaire with any indication of studying. Just choose visiting.
But when you upload your documents, you can include the letter of offer.
