A transit visa allows you to move from one country to another through a third country that is not your destination. Since Pakistan is considered a connection point between Iran and Afghanistan, it is common for travellers to have transit visas in Pakistan. By law, Citizenship and Immigration Canada assumes that applicants who require transit visas would be trying to immigrate or get a job if they decide to overstay their visa date.

You’ve probably heard that a direct flight to Mexico can sometimes be cheaper than flying through the United States. Trying this route may also make your trip faster, since you won’t have to go through as many security checks. This can also be true if you are looking to fly out of Mexico, but you don’t necessarily want to take the route of having to enter the United States. This is particularly true if you are on a student visa and wanted to visit Canada or Italy over spring break. Many students on visas prefer to stay in their country while they study, rather than traveling throughout Europe.
