Hello All,

I have been looking for a valid answer all over, but couldn't find a proper one. Apologizing if this question was asked earlier.
I completed my studies in Canada and applied for my PGWP. Meanwhile I came to India for some personal work. Now my TRV has expired and I want to apply for a new VISA.

Q1: Can I apply for a TRV with valid work permit from India?
Q2: When I feel up the questionnaire to determine my eligibility on cic website, one of the question is "Current country of residence". If I answer India, it takes me to apply for PGWP. If I answer Canada, it takes me to TRV - What should be the answer? (THIS IS THE BIGGEST CONCERN RIGHT NOW)
Q3: Also in the TRV application form the same question has been asked. What should be the answer? - India or Canada ?

It would be really helpful if you have any solution to the problem I am facing.

Thanks

Do you have your approved PGWP?
1. You must apply for TRV to enter Canada.
2. Not sure where the questionnaire is but you are applying for a TRV outside Canada.

3. You are in India.

Thanks Naturgrl.

The problem is that in the eligibility questionnaire (which eventually gives you application category to chose), If I chose my country of residence as India, it only gives me option to apply for PGWP - But I already have an approved PGWP!!
If I chose the country of resident to be "Canada" in the questionnaire, then it gives me the option of TRV. But I am afraid that it could be wrong information given.

Sorry I don’t know what questionnaire you are talking about. The link provides the link to apply through GKey.

If you already have a PGWP, wouldn't you only need a TRV?

Ok, hopefully you will get soon!!

when you submitted the application, did you select Foreign Worker - Visitor Visa ??
One of the questions asks --Do you have a job offer -- Did you say yes or no ??
