visa extension: indicate how long you plan to stay

[ashia]

hi

I am applying to extend my stay as a visitor, while waiting for PR, and have one question.

The form asks:

DETAILS OF VISIT TO CANADA
Q2: INDICATE HOW LONG YOU PLAN TO STAY (from - to)

1. I am in Canada since fall, so should I put this date as "from", or the date when my tourist visa ends, as I am applying for extension of this one?
2. I want to ask to extend my status for a year, so the end is a year, from today, yes? Or from when my visitor status expires?

Please, help

you put a year after your visitor status expires

Hi Ashia,

I'm having the same problem. Did your application go through ok?

I'm going to put the from as the day my visitor status expires, and the to as a year from that date.

Thanks in advance, I know it's been a few years for you now!
