What Are The Documents Required For Temporary Resident Visa Of Canada?

Posted on August 3, 2025 By CampusTimesNG No Comments on What Are The Documents Required For Temporary Resident Visa Of Canada?

Canadian Temporary resident visa is one of the major pathways to Canada and gets permission to work. This visa allows you to live, study, and work in Canada for up to four (4) years, during which you have enough time to explore the Canadian Job market, communities, as well as the conditions to live in Canada. And as such, if you intend to return to your native country after your employment contract has expired you can always do that as your permit specify the same as the condition.

Nevertheless, if you wish to settle permanently in Canada as a country and you wish to be a permanent resident here, you can always convert your work permit into Canadian Permanent Residency Visa after meeting some certain requirements and conditions.

Hence, work and live Visa is obviously one of the best Canada Immigration routes for any immigrants. But before we proceed further with our main subject (document required to gain temporary visa), let’s walk you through what temporary visa of Canada is all about.

What Is ATemporary Resident of Canada?

A temporary permanent resident visa (TRV) of Canada is an official immigration?paper issued by a visa or immigration officer that is placed on an individual?s passport to show that they have fulfilled all the requirements for admission to Canada as a temporary resident.

However, you should know that holding a temporary visa in Canada does not guarantee entry to the Country. The admission of foreign citizens into Canada as temporary residents is a privilege and not a right. During the period as a permanent resident, they have the right to enter Canada freely.

There are three categories under which you obtain a temporary status or temporary resident: Through work permit, visitor visa and study permit.

Work Permit

A work permit permits you to take a job within Canada. If you are a foreigner you will usually require a work permit to work in Canada. But, first, you must have a temporary offer of employment from a Canadian employer and be issued a Work Permit by Human Resources and Skills Development Canada.

Visitor Visa

The visitor visa also called Temporary Visa is an official immigration paper that allows foreigners to visit or come to Canada. Any foreigner entering Canada temporarily need a visitor visa. Unless you are from a visa-exempt country, you will normally need a visitor visa to visit Canada.

Essentially, there are two (2) types of visitor visas of Canada: the single-entry visas and multiple entry visas. A single entry visa allows foreigners to come to Canada for a one-time-only. A multiple entry visa, on the other hand, permits visa holders to enter and leave Canada anytime they desire while the visa is valid.

Study Permit

A study permit is categorized under temporary resident visas (TRV). A study permit is issued by the government of Canada which gives you permission to study in a Canadian tertiary institution for a temporary period. In most cases, the Study Permit clearly states the particular educational institution and course of study. It also clearly specifies the number of months you are allowed to stay in Canada.

Documents Required To Apply For Temporary Visa Of Canada?

Now let’s take a look at the checklist of documents required for the Temporary resident visa of Canada.

Offer of Employment

An offer of employment from Canada is a major requirement of a Canadian work visa. You must get an LMIA approved job offer from Canada to become eligible to apply for a work visa. Thus, before applying for a work visa, apply for the relevant jobs in Canada, and obtain an LMIA approved job offer.

Copy of LMIA

The Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is another key document requirements?you need to become eligible to apply for a work visa. The LMIA is a key certification or document that your employer in Canada will use to obtain approval from Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC).

The LMIA certification ensures that no Canadian employee was available to fill the job vacancy offered to you as a foreign skilled worker.

Copy of Nomination letter

This is also important, just in case when after you have been selected for permanent residence by a province and your employment offer is exempt from the LMIA need, you may need to provide the copy of Provincial nomination letter.

Proof of meeting job requirement

You must provide a piece of valid documents that prove that you met all the requirements of the job being offered to you as a foreign skilled worker.

Proof of funds

You must also make available all proof of settlement funds in order to convince the immigration authorities that you have enough funds to support your stay in Canada.

Other Key documents

There are other key papers and documents needed for a work visa which include; the application form, family information form, fee payment, statuary declaration,? passport, photographs etc.
