Overview of In-Canada Extensions

Temporary residents who wish to stay longer can apply for an extension to continue studying, working, or visiting in Canada. Each category—visitor, student, or worker—has specific requirements for extension applications.

This process ensures you remain in legal status while enjoying uninterrupted stay and opportunities in Canada.

Apply before expiry to continue staying lawfully in Canada.
