There are different types of temporary resident visas and the eligibility and requirements for each type of visa are different.
Types of temporary resident visas include study permit, work permit, post graduate work permit, visitor visa and super visa.
Visitor visa
A visitor visa is required if you want to travel/transit through Canada. It is generally a multiple entry visa and allows a stay for up to six months per visit. If your intent is to get a study permit, you also need to get a visitor visa/eTA along with study permit.
Super Visa
Super visa is also another type of visitor visa. It is also a multiple entry visa generally issued for 10 years or the validity of the passport. It is specially designed for parents and grandparents who want to visit their children or grand children and allows to stay for straight two years.
Study permit
A study permit is required if you are planning to study in Canada and the duration of course program is more than six months, if there is a co-op/internship component in your course program.

You may be eligible for student direct stream and faster processing if you are a legal resident of: China, India, Morocco, Pakistan, The Philippines, Senegal and Vietnam.

Work permit
A work permit is usually required if anyone want to work in Canada however, in some cases work permit is not required. It is required by students who have a co-op/internship component in their study course program.
There are two types of work permits:
- Open work permit, and
- Employer specific work permit.
The eligibility and requirements for both of these are different. An open work permit allows to work for any employer in Canada where as the employer specific work permit only allows to work for a specific eligible employer and no one else.
We strive to help our clients getting and applying for work permit, temporary foreign work permit, extending or change conditions on their work permit. We also help in applying for Post Graduate Work Permit once students are completed their designated study course.
