TRV Approved!!! Important question about dates for length of stay!!!

[Alicious]

My husband has recieved his visitor visa!!! Yaaaa!!! He is arriving tomorrow

Now I have a question...and I have been told 2 different answers. One by a lawyer and one by my local MP's office, who sent a letter of recommendation to approve the visa.

The dates on the visa....are those the only dates my husband is allowed to STAY in Canada? Must he leave by the 2nd date?

The lawyer told me, those are the dates are the time he has to ENTER Canada, and that unless an immigration officer at the airport specifies another date, the visa is automaticaly valid for a 6 month period.

Does anyone know??

Appreciate any help!

Thanks in advance.

Yes that is correct. He must enter Canada within the validity date of his visa. When he arrives in Canada, the POE officer will stamp his passport with the date of his arrival and if no other date is written, then he is good to stay for 6 months.
