  • Tourist visa to Canada while visiting US

    Hi all,

    My in-laws are in USA from past 4 months on visior visa to USA. We are planning to go to canada side of Niagara falls for two days. We understand we need a canada temporary tourist visa to enter Canada.

    My question is:
    1, Is it okay for my in-laws to apply/visit Canada from USA when they are on tour in USA?
    2. Would there be any problem with re-entry to USA after staying in Canada for 2 days.
    3. How long would it take to obtain visa if I post the documents to LA consulate?

    My in-laws have multiple entry visa to USA.

    Anyone information regarding this is appreciated.

    Thanks.....

    1, Is it okay for my in-laws to apply/visit Canada from USA when they are on tour in USA?
    ---> They can apply. Whether they get it or not all depends on their luck.

    2. Would there be any problem with re-entry to USA after staying in Canada for 2 days.

    ---> Generally, if it is not being used as a means to get a new I-94 extension for the visitor visa, it is not a problem. Visitors to Canada do not get a new I-94 if returning with-in 30 days.

    3. How long would it take to obtain visa if I post the documents to LA consulate?

    ---> Depends. Check their website. I know DC one takes a long time (3-4 weeks) while Detroit processes it in 1-2 weeks. It all depends on their load. One of my friend went in person to LA and got the visa the same day.

      Thanks a lot for the information. I appreciate your quick response.

      I would be applying to the LA consulate as I stay in SFO, I looked at their website but was not able to find the information about the number of weeks needed.

      Also do you know if I can apply for both of them in one application?

        The guide to visitor visa application has this question clearly answered.

              I had started a similar thread couple of days back. You can find the link below.



              I checked with my sis who's in detroit and she told me that if i am unable to get the canadian visa processed from india, i could apply for the same in US, and all i need is one full day at the embassy. O'coz things could be different in different state.....

                Tourist visa to Canada while visiting US

                Hi All,

                I have a question regarding visiting Canada while visiting US. My parents are visiting US from India and both my spouse and I have GC. I understand that my parents need visa to visit Canada... but can I present my financial documents as they are travelling with me? or do we need their property docs from India?

                Thanks!
