Hello everyone, I thank you in advance for taking the time to read my question:

I am a Canadian citizen, my GF (future wife) and I are currently learning what it takes to apply for an extension of her visit. She comes from the visa exempt country of Italy, and was not given any conditional date to leave Canada when she last arrived here, therefore we have assumed that she is obliged to leave before 6 months from the day she last arrived. We are approximately 2 months away from her hypothetical obligated departure from Canada, and we would like to understand exactly what we are to expect for applying for a visit extension. I have read in the past that if I provide some sort of evidence of my ability to support her financially, as well as provide her with housing that it would help the process. How may I provide this information with her application? We can see that the online application gives the option of uploading documents, would this be the opportunity to provide a letter explaining our financial/housing situation to prove that she can be supported while being here?

What are your thoughts/experiences of applying for a visit extension from a visa exempt country.
Any comments or statements to help/guide our situation are welcome.

Thank you very much
