Required documents

  • Passport

    Passport bio and travel pages

    Clear colour copy of the valid (not expired) passport or travel document, including the page showing birth date and country of origin and any pages with stamps, visas or markings. IRCC asks that it be valid for at least 6 months from the date you plan to travel, and guide 5256 adds "There must be at least one blank page other than the last page".

  • Photograph

    Digital photograph

    Two photographs meeting the IRCC visa application photograph specifications. Instruction guide 5256 states: "Provide two photos meeting the requirement of the Visa application photograph specifications."

  • Bank Statement

    Bank statements

    Evidence of funds. Instruction guide 5256 requires applicants to "show that you have enough money to maintain yourself and your family members in Canada and to return home". IRCC does not prescribe one fixed document; bank statements are the usual proof and the in-portal personalised checklist confirms what your case needs.
