What IRCC commonly asks for
- A travel itinerary with planned dates
- Accommodation arrangements in Canada
- Proof of funds for the stay
- Evidence you will leave Canada at the end of the visit
What this means in practice
IRCC does not require prepaid tickets at application. A held flight reservation and a hotel confirmation document the itinerary and accommodation while you wait for a decision.
Requirements change
Visa requirements change without notice and vary by nationality and application centre. Always confirm with the official consulate checklist before applying. These guides are information, not legal advice.
