Hi everyone,

I do also have good news. I got my TRP and study permit approved! Just have to figure out whether I can exit and re-enter since it's valid for 2 years, and I think it says that I can, but once again, I contacted my lawyer for that. Good luck to everyone else! It seems easier than all the websites say it is (that they only approve it in really rare circumstances...)

Oh yay!!! I wasn't sure if we would get an email because I saw some people said they never received a confirmation email to acknowledge receipt of their application. Best of luck!!! We want to travel to Canada in 4 weeks so the timeline is getting tight.

Just an update: I entered Canada yesterday and no issues at all. I wasn’t ask a single question. I had to ask him whether he needed to put my passport picture on the document. That’s it!

Dear all,

I hope you are well. I am writing in hopes of getting some clarity. I spoke to a number of lawyers and they offered different, very expensive alternatives. The background for my case is below:

I am an Indian passport holder currently residing in the US. I want to apply for a Canadian visitor visa for tourism. To that end, I wanted to get some more information on the admissibility.
I have an arrest record for a misdemeanor, disorderly conduct from 2015. The case was dismissed and there was no conviction. I didn’t have to pay any penalty or do community service.

Can you please let me know if I can apply for the visitor visa or would I have to apply for a Temporary Resident permit?

I couldn’t find any relevant information on the website.

I appreciate your help.

Thanks.

That was from a 2-second Google search. Looks like disorderly conduct does not make you inadmissible to Canada. I'm NOT a lawyer though. Perhaps you should consult with a lawyer from Canada to get a third opinion.

Oh man, thanks for the support. I hope you hear good news soon!!! We sent an email to LNGLSQUESTIONS@INTERNATIONAL.GC.CA today. Another poster on page 5 said she got a reply from that email after inquiring. I Googled the email address too and it came up on the consulate's Twitter and Facebook pages. Both were in response to other people asking how to inquire about their applications. We didn't expect a reply right away but I hope we get one early next week. Will update as things develop...
