I am a master's student currently studying in the UK, originally from Pakistan. During my university holiday in March 2024, I am planning to visit Canada for a two-week stay. I am in the process of understanding the visa application requirements and procedures. I would greatly appreciate insights from anyone knowledgeable about the current processes, required documentation, and any additional tips for a smooth application and travel experience. Please share your expertise or point me to relevant resources. Thank you in advance for your assistance!
Planning a Two-Week Visit to Canada during University Holiday

Do you have a host who will be inviting you or you are coming as a tourist? Whichever, you will need an itinerary and show proof of funds and financial information..
Yes, I'll be traveling as a tourist and staying in a hotel. I've got my bank statement ready and will include it in the application
For two weeks, your funds is not enough. Someone in this forum suggested at least CAD20,000. You need about 4 times what you have now!
And what other countries where you’ve required a visa , have you travelled to ?
Example USA, Australia, NZ
3000 pounds isn’t enough . Todays BBR is only around $5000 CAD
Thank you for the clarification regarding the budget for a two-week visit. I appreciate the correction. Could you please provide more accurate information on the recommended budget for my stay? Additionally, are there any specific requirements or tips for demonstrating financial capacity in the visa application process?
I haven't traveled to any countries that require a visa before, including the USA, Australia, or New Zealand. I visit only UAE
Where are you going? You need to show enough funds for trip but enough left over without using all your savings.
I want to visit Canada for one or two weeks, what is the specific amount to show for a one-week trip?
Where? How are you getting around? $20k to afford a trip & have some money left over.
You can look at google and check the hotel and flight prices yourself. It's easy. Some popular destinations from LHR to Canada: YVR or YYC or YYZ. Depends what you want to see. If Niagara Falls, then fly to YYZ and then take ground transportation to the Falls.
