Hello folks.

I have a visitor visa extension and I'm wondering if I can go to USA for one week or I need to apply for TRV? I'm still waiting for my OWP. Thanks

You need to apply for a US tourist visa.

Unless you have a multiple entry visa, it's not advisable to leave Canada until you have that OWP.

Ah, sorry, I thought you meant can you travel to the us with your current Canadian visa. If it's not multiple entry, I wouldn't risk it, as if you aren't allowed back in, your PR app is cancelled.

From the IRCC site:

You can request to return to Canada on your original single-entry temporary resident visa, if:
  • you will only visit the U.S. or St. Pierre and Miquelon; and
  • you will return to Canada before the end of your approved stay in Canada.

Thank you so much. I will travel with my partner but it's better to wait the OWP.
OWP doesn't guarantee re-entry , you must remain in Canada until you'r grated PR .
