Visitor Visa

Visitor Visa

Canada is a destination of opportunity—whether you’re planning a vacation, visiting family, or exploring business prospects. However, securing a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV), commonly known as a visitor visa, can be complex. A single oversight or missing document could lead to delays or even refusals.

At Kahlon Law Office, we provide strategic legal guidance to ensure your visitor visa application is strong, complete, and positioned for success. Should you face challenges such as misrepresentation allegations or refusals, our immigration law experts are ready to advocate for you.

Do you need a visitor visa?

Most foreign nationals require a visitor visa to enter Canada, unless they are from a visa-exempt country, in which case an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) may be needed instead. Even if you are simply transiting through Canada, a visa could be required.

Our team will help you determine your eligibility and guide you through the application process with confidence.

What do immigration officers look for?

A strong visitor visa application must convince immigration officials that you:

  •  Have a valid travel document (passport)
  •  Are in good health (a medical exam may be required)
  •  Have no criminal or immigration-related convictions
  •  Have strong ties to your home country—such as a job, family, property, or financial assets—to ensure your return
  •  Can financially support your stay in Canada
  •  Will leave Canada on time before your visa expires

Visa officers exercise wide discretion in approving applications, making a well-prepared submission crucial. We ensure that your application not only meets but exceeds IRCC’s requirements.

How can you avoid visa refusals and misrepresentation issues?

Many visa refusals occur because immigration officers are not convinced the applicant will return home. Others result from misrepresentation, which can lead to severe consequences—including a five-year ban from Canada under Section 40(1)(a) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA).

Misrepresentation: Even Honest Mistakes Can Have Serious Consequences

A minor omission, such as failing to disclose a previous visa refusal from another country can be interpreted as misrepresentation. The Federal Court of Canada has upheld this strict stance in cases such as:

  • Kaur v. Canada (2019 FC 1059) – where the court ruled that even unintentional misstatements could trigger inadmissibility.
  • Hassan v. Canada (2018 FC 1051) – confirming that failure to disclose past visa refusals constitutes misrepresentation, regardless of intent.

If you’ve been refused a visa or accused of misrepresentation, you still have options, including:

  •  Seeking a judicial review of the decision in Federal Court
  •  Applying for a Temporary Resident Permit (TRP) to overcome inadmissibility
  •  Filing an Application for Rehabilitation in cases of past immigration violations

At Kahlon Law Office, we carefully assess your situation and develop a tailored legal strategy to address refusals and ensure the highest chance of approval.
