So is your child in Canada? Did you apply for TRV or extension as you talk about extension. If not in Canada, an extension is not what your child needs to re-enter. Child needs TRV. An extension is only if in Canada and to remain in Canada.
Yes, we all were in Canada before we left I applied for the extension before we left. Initially she never needed anything and her American passport was never stamped or anything but I assumed she would need something this time and applied for her the same time I applied for my husband my myself. So can we all just travel to Canada without me having to put in for the TRV or do I have to obtain that prior to travel?
If she is US citizen, she enters on her passport. If you and your husband need TRVs, then apply for them An extension is no longer valid if you leave Canada.
But do you have TRVs. Extended study and work permits are not TRVs unless you are US citizen or from ETA country. An extension doesn’t let you enter Canada.
Entry is never guaranteed. If she had been in Canada for over 6 months and didn’t extend her stay then it is possible. How old is she?
She is 3 yes we have been in Canada for a year, but initially when we came they never stamped her American passport or anything so I assumed her time correlated with ours.
If it wasn’t stamped then she could stay in Canada for 6 months, and then would have had to extend her stay. Her time has no correlation to yours. So she was in Canada without status for more than 6 months? Again, there may be no issue when she re-enters. You will not know until she enters.
We initially entered last year July 26 so 6 months from that date would’ve been January 26th her dad and I applied for extensions in May 2023 and we thought that we were suppose to apply for an extension for her the same time and we did that and she was refused. Thanks so much, I guess we will see when she re-enters.
