So i entered Canada near the end of May. When I entered I was given a form of my "intended length of stay" so i wrote down 45 days. A rough estimation.

I a nearing the 45 day mark and I wonder how I am able to find out how long my visitor visa is?

Does what I wrote down matter or do i just get the standard 3 month or 6 month? I am from australia.

Check the chop/stamp in your passport that CBSA put in it when you arrived. If there is a date written in, that's the date it expires. If there is no date, it's 6 months from date of entry.

No stamp = 6 months.
