How much does Visitor record and stay extension cost and how long does it take?

Government fees and processing times can change and may differ by stream, country and family size. Confirm the live fee and processing-time controls on www.canada.ca immediately before paying or planning a deadline.

Practical order

1. 1

   Record the current entry document, visitor-record conditions, passport expiry and the date authorized stay ends before selecting an extension action.

2. 2

   Use the official page to distinguish extending a stay, changing temporary conditions and restoring status after expiry.

3. 3

   Sign in to your own IRCC account, answer the live eligibility questions and retain the document checklist produced for the selected visitor-record request.

4. 4

   Prepare passport and status records, the factual reason and requested period, available-funds evidence and any host or itinerary records named by the live checklist.

5. 5

   Review the online forms, upload the current records, pay IRCC directly and submit before status expires when using the extension branch.

6. 6

   Monitor the IRCC account, answer additional requests by their stated dates and read the issued visitor record or refusal for its exact conditions and next action.
