I am applying for a visitor visa and in the documents tab/ section, below are my only options for file upload. There are no area for proof of financial support (e.g. bank cert/ statement, COE from my company), travel history or digital photo. Do I just include it all in 1 pdf and upload it under additional documents?

Supporting Documents
- Passport/ travel documents

Optional Documents
- Consent personal information
- Additional documents
- Employer letter (A copy of a letter from the employer in Canada. This letter must state that the company will hire you to work in Canada for a specific period of time.)
 
Hi all, please I need help. I have an ongoing 5 week old open work permit application based on my my spouse studying in Canada. Is it advisable to apply for a visitor visa under this new IRCC portal since it’s faster to allow me see my spouse? Will my work permit application be cancelled or is it regarded as a different category ? Will it adversely affect me in any way?
