What documents and steps are needed for Restoration of temporary resident status?
Prepare the expired status document and passport, a precise status/activity chronology, the factual restoration explanation, current circumstance evidence, the personalized checklist, related temporary-document forms, receipts and IRCC messages. Confirm each current form and personalized checklist control on www.canada.ca.
Practical order
- 1
Record the temporary status held, its exact expiry, passport validity and every work, study or visitor condition that may have ended.
- 2
Do not work or study after the applicable authorization ends unless the current official rules clearly preserve that authorization for the recorded filing facts.
- 3
Use the current IRCC instructions to verify whether restoration is still available and which temporary document or condition request must accompany it.
- 4
Prepare the factual explanation, passport and prior permit or visitor record, proof of current circumstances and every item on the current account-generated checklist.
- 5
Complete the restoration and related temporary-status application in your own account, pay the current government fees directly and save the full confirmation.
- 6
Remain within the activity limits described by IRCC, monitor the account, answer requests by their dates and follow the approval or refusal instructions exactly.
It does not determine eligibility, predict a decision or submit anything for you.
