The other reason I care so much is that the family from Toronto (mother in law sister in law) came to the funeral and are trying to extort money that belongs to my wife that is legally transferred to me the husband. That is when they told me she wanted to stay longer and want me to pay for that. I'm trying to get my letter of invitation revokes she can't legally demand anything from me. The Law requires black and white on paper regarding it. I just need a peace of mind that nothing can tie me to her.
How can i revoke the responsibility of a person that came to Canada under a visitor visa

the document that I provide are the following, Letter of invitation, birth certificate ( so the visa office know that I'm Canadian) Proof fo employment signed and a permanent resident of my wife as well as a letter from the hospital asking the visa office to grant her a visitor visa to come and aid my wife in recovery. is there a way i can find out that the visa number is related to what type of visa she actually applied for?
That's exactly what we're all telling you. There is no law that says that you are responsible for a visitor. You don't need to get anything revoked because your letter doesn't mean anything in the eyes of the law. There's nothing to revoke.
There's nothing in the Immigration Act or Immigration Regulations that will impact you.
If you're so worried and are indeed getting extorted you need to talk to a lawyer/the police. This has nothing to do with Immigration.
You don't seem to be getting peace of mind from the answers here, so I suggest you talk to a lawyer and feel better. Good luck with everything.
You have nothing to worry about. There is no website that says that you are not obliged to pay for her expenses simply because you are not obliged to do so; the government does not write up things that we are not required to do.
The only case you would be required to cover her expenses would be if she were sponsored - and you would know, because the application process would have taken a year or more - or a super visa, and you would know because you would have had to get her a significant medical insurance policy.
Your letter of invitation is in no way enforceable as a requirement to pay her expenses. Again, you won't find an official government document specifying that because it just cannot be. So you are not, in any way, responsible for her.
That's why I'm suggesting you contact a lawyer. This is just an internet forum and for true peace of mind since this isn't working for you, you should talk to a professional. You can explain the extortion attempt as well - that's really something that you should get professional advice on. If they are going to challenge the will (or the inheritance if your wife passed away intestate), you absolutely need a lawyer.
I'm sorry for your loss and I hope everything works out for you without further stress and worry.

That's visa number, the category(on the visa in passport) tells you the type. If you have the application number, if it starts with V and followed with digits, it is visitor visa.

I can understand your concern and confusion, especially after losing your wife. Get advice from a lawyer, as I suggested much earlier. The cost is worth your peace of mind. Take care.
Would you pay a lawyer to tell you what your personal obligations are under the Paris climate change treaty? No. You wouldn't, because despite Canada signing it, there are no personal obligations. Paying a lawyer for the peace of mind is a very good waste of money.
OP should consult a lawyer about the extortion attempts.
You cannot "revoke" the letter. There is no mention in the law because there is no legal responsibility in this situation. This is stated right on IRCC's website https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio.../services/visit-canada/letter-invitation.html.
Writing a letter of invitation does not mean you are legally responsible for the visitor once he or she gets to Canada.
