Hi there,

Thanks for taking your time to read this post! I have a few questions regarding my dad's visitor visa.

I have Canada PR, my dad has the regular visitor visa (10 years validity, multiple entries, each stay of maximum 6 months), so here are the questions/doubts:

1. When my dad comes to Canada for the first time, does he have to also purchase the return ticket? Would that help allow hi to enter Canada easier when he's at the airport/custom?

2. When my dad's stay has reached 6 months, can I take him to US, or Mexico for 1-2 weeks, and then re-enter Canada so that he can get another 6 months stay? Or any way he can apply for an extension? (the reason why I am asking is because my dad is visually impaired and there isn't anyone else to take care of him back home so I would like him to stay in Canada with me as much as possible.


Thanks in advance...
