I tried to search the forum on this but did not get a clear answer. I would like to know if one has to travel to Canada within six months of issuance of TRV ? Does the answer change depending on scenarios as follows :

1. If someone has been issued a single entry six month's TRV - it is pretty obvious that one has to travel to Canada within six months

2. If someone has been issued a multiple entry TRV that is valid for the validity of the person's passport - in this case, does the person has to make his/her first visit to Canada within six months of issuance of such TRV ? or the person can travel to Canada anytime during the validity of the TRV which in this example could be, say 6 years ?

Any help is most appreciated.

Thank you
