Visitors to Canada will be automatically considered for multiple entry visas
On February 3, 2014 Citizenship & Immigration Canada announced that applicants of visitor visas to Canada will be automatically considered for a multiple entry visa. Up until now, applicants had the option of applying for a Single Entry or a Multiple Entry visa. During the validity period of a Multiple Entry visa, tourists may come to Canada without having to apply for a Visa each time.
Citizenship & Immigration Canada is simplifying the application process and at the same time promoting tourism. In the past, applicants had to select whether they are applying for a Single Entry or Multiple Entry, which in turn expresses the applicant’s intention.
Also worth noting is the change in application fees.
New Fee Schedule for Temporary Resident Visas
Single Entry Visa – $100 (increase by $25)
Multiple Entry Visa – $100 (reduced by $50)
Work Permit – $155 (an increase of $5)
Study Permit – $150 (increase by $25)
