Question on re-entry to Canada from Cuba

[jchen]

Hello All!

I am F-1 status in the US. I hold Chinese passport and a single-entry visa to Canada, which has been used once and would expire on Jun 20, 2012. I plan to go to Canada on Jun 10, and I understand that I would not need to get another visa for this trip. However, I also plan to go to Cuba from Toronto and return to Canada from Cuba. I know I do need a new visa for returning to Canada from Cuba, so my concern is if I apply a new single-entry visa now, would I be able to 1) enter into Canada from US by using my old visa and 2) enter into Canada from Cuba by using the new visa.

If above statement would not work, what is my alternative solution? Should I apply a multi-entry visa?

Does anyone know? Please help me out, thanks!

U r not allowed to have two Canadian visas at one time in ur passport. U would have to reapply for a multiple or in cAnada u may be able to send ur passport to buffallow office in USA and apply there for another single. I think that is how it works anyway but u may wnt to. Call CIC or ur visa office to be sure
