Hi everyone,
Appreciate any response you can give me for the following questions:

My husband has work permit and now in Canada. I will apply for open work permit and wanted to bring my 3yo daughter. What visa should I apply for her? What forms do I need from cic website for her?

Unless visa-exempt, she needs a TRV.

Unless visa-exempt, she needs a TRV.

Is this the same as visitor visa?

Also, what's the acceptable amount should i put in the form which asks for her funds?

There is no set amount. Put what you have.

Can we apply to extend her visa once she is there in canada? If so, should it still be visitor or can be study permit?

You can request a Visitor Record upon entry to match the validity of your husband's work permit.

I see. That helps. thanks. One more question though, with her first application for visitor, how long should I put? 3 or 4 months or we can pit the duration of his work permit?

As she is applying along with you, put the actual duration.

What do we need to put in the letter if we apply until end of his work permit which is sep2021?

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

Do we need to provide invitation letter and state that we apply for her visitor visa then indicate duration to be until sep2021 which is the end date of my husband's work permit?

You don't need an invitation letter. Just follow the checklist.

If this is the case that we dont need the invitatio letter, is it right that i put family visitor visa in the form on the purpose of travel part then duration would be from next month for example, until sep2021? Btw, thank you for your time answering my questions.
