Standard Visitor Visa from Canada

Post by skant » Mon Aug 07, 2023 8:08 pm

Hello!
I am applying for a Standard Visitor Visa from Canada. My nationality is Canada, and the purpose of my stay in Canada is post-grad work permit (expiry 2025). The visa in Canada is issued separately, and is called a temporary resident visa (expiry 2028). In the UK visitor visa application, they ask "what permission do you have to be in canada?". there are 3 options: (1) I have a temporary visa, (2) I have a permanent residency, and (3) i have neither.

SO I chose option 1.
next question is about the expiry of the visa. Should I put the expiry of my work permit or of my visa? thanks

If you are Canadian national you do not a visa to visit the UK.
If you have temporary residence in Canada then you should choose temporary visa and put the expiry date where asked.

thank you for your reply,
I am not a permanent resident.
So the expiry date of my temporary resident visa (and not the work permit). Is that what I understood from your reply?

My nationality is Canada
Why do you need a permit to stay in Canada then? What's your passport?

And yes, provide the expiration date of your visa.

I am not a permanent resident. Then nationality cannot be Canadian
