Hey @itspossible9 , wanna check with you if my process is the correct one (apply TRV inside Canada), when I select the questionnaire according to the guide, I have to submit 2 document:

- Application for Visitor Visa (Temporary Resident Visa) Made Outside of Canada (IMM5257) (required)
- Schedule 1 - Application for a Temporary Resident Visa Made Outside Canada (IMM 5257) (required)

They also say even though it shows "Outside of Canada", it's the correct form. Does everyone have to submit these 2? (especially the second one)
I think I didn't submit the schedule 1 form.I just submitted IMM 5257 form along with my PGWP, photo and medical exam.

Thank you so much. I would appreciate if more people can confirm this.
Yes, you can. This has already been answered in IRCC’s official site’s Help Centre section.

Please help me! I applied for a TRV on August 9th, within Canada and as a PGWP holder. As I read later that we have to re-apply after Sept 7th I did it on Sep 9th. So I have two applications in my IRCC account, because even when I applied for the second one the site mentioned that the first application is going to be withdrawn automatically, I didn't do nothing. Now I have the two applications In process, only AOR and no answer so far, even I received a refund but it is still active in the IRCC site. What I have to do? Do I have to continue waiting?

I applied to TR to PR as IG stream also on May 6th but no answer or AOR so far. I'm really frustrated because I really need to leave Canada for two weeks even I asked for vacations in my company, I didn't think it is going to be delayed so long.

Only submit the first one not the schedule 1

If it's still valid.. then you don't need a new one .. as the new would serve the same purpose .

Did you try to see or find out if it applies to you ... I think it was only for visitors of immediate family members.
Not for people already in Canada?

I think people who applied inside Canada were not the ones asked to reapply after Sept 7th, unless maybe your situation is different/specific.

You can leave Canada, your application would still be processed. When you get a passport request letter while in India, you can send the passport to the VAC for stamping in India itself. But if your present TRV expires before your application is approved and you are in India, then you may not be able to travel back to Canada.

Only submit the first one not the schedule 1
Hey, The second one only has a few yes/no questions (like past visa denial, etc.) and lists past countries in the last 5 years.
I thought it wasn't much so I submitted it too.
It appears as an optional document in the checklist, but once submitted, it shows as Required.

But now I'm just worried they might think I'm not Inland o_O
