[Jaise]

Please reply. I have a question about extendend family member visa. My boyfriend is fully vaccinated. Does he need to apply for written authorisation as well or just visa?

Fully vaccinated visitors are allowed to travel to Canada (provided they have eTA or TRV).

Getting a WP and finding an employer willing to go through the LMIA and WP process is quite difficult. It also takes around 6 months these days unless you are in some high skilled professions.

You can apply for an employer specific work permit but you still need a LMIA. The policy was designed during Covid when people couldn’t leave the country.

As previously mentioned this policy isn’t for new visitors. It was for those who go stuck during covid.

Really? I thought it's good to have but not required.

Most airlines won't let you board without a return ticket.

So that's only after getting visa approval right? I thought that you were saying that the visa officer needs to see a return ticket while evaluating our application.

Ah - I understand your question now. You should only buy the ticket after the TRV has been approved - not before.

Oh ok, thanks for clarifying I was a bit worried because I have seen a lot of people in the forum saying that a return ticket is mandatory while submitting the application to prove that you'll return after your visit. However, I don't think that's strong proof.

When landing in Canada they do usually want to see that you have a return ticket. The airlines also want to see that you have a return ticket in case you are denied entry to Canada. If you don’t have a return ticket the airline has to pay for your return flight.
