This official will also determine the length of time that is allowed for your stay in Canada (most visitors can stay in the country up to six months from their date of arrival). 

There are three types of temporary resident visas:

• The single-entry visa allows its holder to enter Canada only once.
• A multiple-entry visa permits the holder to enter Canada any number of times during the period during which the visa is valid.
• A transit visa is needed for those who must travel through Canada on their way to another destination.
• Time spent in Canada cannot exceed 48 hours and travel documents must be shown as evidence.
