Do you already have a valid TRV or eTA?

What are your reasons for traveling to Canada?

 

[Teresa raye]

No he doesn’t have a trv did you see the article that I’m talking about ?

 

[Teresa raye]

The reason for his traveling is to help me out by watching our 11 month year old daughter due to my depression I’m going to a therapist and programs to help with my depression and I need help with her during these troubling times I don’t know if a doctors note can help ?

Yes, very familiar with the article.

An approved TRV is still required to travel. This requirement hasn't changed. If he doesn't have a TRV, he needs to start by applying for one.

A simple invitation letter attached with a doctors note is that enough or he will need to provide more documents ?

He needs to follow the normal instructions for applying for a TRV that are in the link below. He will want to show that he has strong ties to his home country and enough funds to pay for his travel.

I dont think you need a letter from IRCC. This is true if you are a permanent resident or a citizen and your immediate family member is visiting.
It is only required if you are a temporary resident and your family is visiting. Also as per the new article it looks like you dont need to prove the travel is essential or not (only in case of immediate family members)

Yes I think even if it's not stated explicitly in this article everybody must have some sort of visa for travel. And yes he must apply for TRV.

I also observed in this article they mention the travel has to be non optional....but an article released few days ago says the travel may not be essential for immediate family. I guess the rules for very fluid and keep changing frequently. Not sure about this.

Can I apply for my spouse online ? Or does it have to be him

What you are quoting isn't an official IRCC website and it diesn't a government source.

You need to be taking your information from the official IRCC website.

Yes you have to apply online. Check the official website for the steps. They are detailed.
