My MiL is visiting my SiL in Canada with a TRV. She got a B1/2 as well and wants to visit us in USA, and after few weeks plans to travel back to Canada and later go back home from there.
Last time when she did this same routine she had a TRV for 3 mos but the admission seal to Canada had a date for allowing 6 mos stay. And the original visa was cancelled with a pen strike. This gave us confidence that she could travel back to Canada from USA and she did just that w/ no prob.
This time the Canada TRV was for 6 mos but the entry seal do not have a date, NOR the visa was struck across with pen!
So my assumption is that her visit is valid only for the original visa terms which expire in April 2014. (our tht was they'll give her 6 mos from entry date but since she came after 2 mos from visa issue date she got only about 4 mos stay!!)
The TRV is for multiple entry.
I am bit concerned why the entry seal to Canada do not have a date for authorized stay? Do they do like that sometime so the entry is valid only for the visa term?
She plan to enter USA in Feb. and would go back to Canada in March, do you think she will be ok to re-enter?
I'd welcome some input from those of you who are well versed with Canada port of entry visa requirements.
Cheers!
