How much can I apply online in advance?

[NeedHelpForVisa]

Hello everybody,

we live in Germany and we want to apply online for a family visit.

We plan to be from September 2017 till October 2017. Is it to early to send an application now? It´s more than 8 months in advance.

Or is it okay when we determine our duration of stay in the invitation letter and the form, so we can apply now? We would like manage this as soon as possible.

Thanks for your help!

I forgot to mention that we don´t have a german passport, so we need a visa and not the eTA.

This is a web site where people offer advice for free. It is unrealistic for you to expect immediate answers. If you want immediate answers - hire a lawyer. If you want free advice - be prepared to wait hours or even days for an answer.

To answer your question - you can apply for the visitor visa now.
