no, if it’s asking for that document, you’re doing it wrong. You have to apply for her as if she was doing the application, that way it will request the right document, 5257.

It’s the same but instead of working status is student status. It will ask you for their grades and funds proof, so I added their scorecards and my paystubs and job letter and that’s it.

ok, I did it last month for my family and me. The thing is, you have to apply for each one separately. I did one application for my spouse and paid it, then one child, then the other, and then myself, now I have all 4 passports with a renewed visa.

Hey guys so I finally did it. I applied for a TRV renewal inside Canada as a "family". So basically you'll have to do it one by one to get the right document (IMM5257). When both parents are workers (work permit) is easy, but still a separate application. For the kids (student permit), it will...

I'm in the same situation as all of you. Solution (for a couple): Do it separately, it will trigger the right form 5257. Solution (family with kids): Do it on paper :( I know, it will take more time (a lot compared to online), but the system just won't trigger the right form. Alternative...

From Colombia. No idea what is the new portal.

My brother applied for a visitor visa on Aug 4, 2022. Biometrics on Feb 8, 2021 (from previous application, never got an answer) No updates.

Your visas must be expired to request new ones and IRCC will ask you for the work permits (to upload them into the application), so technically, it won’t let you apply until you upload those documents.

I've been reading and so far 2 folks did it on paper to get visas for all the family... Does anyone have an idea for this?

So the only way is to apply using paper? I'm trying to do it online, and the same thing happens. My wife and I have WP and the children have SP, and only ask for TRV for me and an extension or change of permits for them... it's so frustrating

Hi community, I have my PGWP and now I'm trying to apply for my family’s visa. When I fill out the questionnaire it asks me for the "Application for Visitor Visa (Temporary Resident Visa) Made Outside of Canada (IMM5257)" yeah it says Outside Canada but I heard that is the one I need... But...

BUMP

Hi forum! Do I need to translate all documents into English for the visitor visa? Is this a new requirement or it has been like that always? Thanks!

Finally, we did it! Mine was approved on July 18, but received the email notification on July 19. Wait time: 6 Months and 5 days...

Yes I contacted them last Thursday, they replied to me on Friday requesting some forms so they could ask for my file on my behalf, and I received a message from them that they contacted the IRCC, and as soon as they get a reply from them, they will let me know how to proceed...
