Have they restricted the sign up process to the new portal? I am trying to create a new account for a friend but in the sign up section it asks for an invite code... Anyone know a way around?

when you try to sign up u will be asked to give an email id and a code will be sent to that email, have to use that code to sign up (its some sought of email verification!)..that was how it was when i did in last november

My spouse has reached Canada on TRV yesterday however, her passport wasn't stamped on arrival at YYZ Pearson Airport.

1 Is this normal ?

2 What do I need to do for stamping ?

3 Will there be any issue ?

TIA

Hi all,

My tourist visa is about to expire in June (in 3 months). My question is, can I apply for a tourist visa again before the expiry of current visa?

Reply would be highly appreciated. Thank you
Hi there, you can't apply for visitor visa while residing in Canada, but you can apply for Visitor Record to extend your stay. Please refer to link below. Only student and work permit holders can apply for visitor visa within Canada, all others must apply from outside Canada.
Extend your stay in Canada: About the document - Canada.ca
