Temporary Resident Visa Canada Application & Expert Guidance

A temporary resident is a foreign national who is legally authorized to enter Canada for temporary purposes.

A foreign national has temporary resident status when they have been found to meet the requirements of the legislation to enter and/or remain in Canada as a visitor, student, worker or temporary resident permit holder. Only foreign nationals physically in Canada hold temporary resident status.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada processes these applications under several categories:

• Temporary resident visas
• Electronic travel authorizations
• International students
• Temporary workers
• Temporary resident permits

Temporary residents are subject to various conditions, such as the length of their stay in Canada
