According to recent surveys, more than 5 million people come to Canada for tourism every year. This number includes people who are either citizens of countries that do not need a visa to enter Canada or are from countries that require a temporary residence visa to enter.
In order to go to Canada for tourism or to visit relatives, every person needs to obtain a temporary visa or a Canadian tourist visa, for which he must present a valid passport and convince the immigration officer before the visa expires. He will leave Canada. Things that can play a positive role for the immigration officer include having relatives, spouse, job, money, property, etc. in the person’s own country.
You can enter Canada as a tourist, to meet family and friends, to do business or as a transit.
One of the ways to enter Canada is to meet the family. If you are a parent or grandparent of a Canadian citizen or resident, you can enter this country by obtaining a super visa. To enter Canada, you must be eligible to enter Canada as a bona fide tourist who intends to return to your home country after a specified period of time. Things that are important for the immigration officer include the following:
If you plan to stay in Canada for a longer period of time, you must apply for it. Note that you must submit and follow up your application at least 30 days before the expiration of your residence permit.
The border services officer at the airport will determine how long you have the right to stay in Canada, but in general, most tourists are allowed to stay for 6 months from the time of arrival. If the officer determines that this time should be shorter, the exact date will be written on the passport.
If you intend to enter as a tourist, you must have a Canadian tourist or tourism visa, which is considered one of the temporary visas. There are two types of tourist visa: single visa and multiple visa. The validity period of both is specific and limited and will not be valid after expiry.
Important note: from February 6, 2014, all tourist visas will be considered as multiple visas, even those that have been requested individually.
My case for Canadian permanent residence is being processed at the embassy, can I enter Canada as a tourist and wait for my permanent visa? You can enter the country as a tourist before receiving a permanent visa, but note that you must apply for your tourist visa anyway.
Very important point: having a valid tourist visa does not guarantee you to enter Canada. The border services officer will determine whether you are allowed to enter the country and how long you will be there.
The only way is to re-apply for a visa, but note that this re-application requires fundamental changes in your circumstances and important and decisive new information.
No, visa application for each family member must be done separately. You can submit all requests in a common envelope with a common payment receipt for all family members.

For example, to meet companies with whom they have business relations or people who are invited by Canadian companies to take training courses in Canada.

It was in the relevant documents, or finally, there was a problem in the immigration department in the way of examining your application for granting a Canadian visa.
If you feel that the visa officer who was responsible for reviewing your case made a mistake in rejecting your tourist visa application, you should apply to a Canadian federal court to appeal the rejection of your tourist visa.

For example, you made a mistake in submitting the initial application or you forgot an important document that was very important in accepting your tourist visa (such as proof of your connection to the country of origin or proof of sufficient financial means for the duration of your stay in Canada). . You must provide a convincing explanation as to why you did not submit the documents in your previous visa application submission.
If you apply again immediately after the rejection of your tourist visa application, you will be rejected as before. Therefore, it is necessary to make sure that the reasons for your visa rejection are clear before any re-application for a tourist visa.
