You can travel to the USA only and request to be admitted under your expired TRV and a CBSA officer will assess if you qualify for transit. There is no guarantee that you will be allowed in again, but it is also true almost everyone gets accepted as long as they comply with the rules:

◦you will only visit the U.S. or St. Pierre and Miquelon; and
◦you will return to Canada before the end of your approved stay in Canada.


Travelling to Cuba needs a valid TRV.

Thanks for your replay,

Are you sure about this information,

Will they allow me to get in USA without Canadian TRV?

I have no TRV, not even expired, I am from Non-visa exempt country.

Thanks again!
