Invitation letters for Canadian visas include information about you and your visitor. Axess Law’s notary publics write a Canada visitor visa letter of invitation for you. Canada welcomes international and U.S. citizens who want to visit or work or study temporarily in Canada. U.S. visitors require only a passport or frequent traveller NEXUS card to enter Canada for brief stays. International visitors from outside the U.S. may be asked for a letter of invitation when they apply for a visa in their country of origin. You can assist their application by providing a notarized letter of invitation, addressed to the head of the Canadian embassy or consulate in their country.
You should only provide invitation letters to family, relatives, friends, or acquaintances you know well enough to vouch for. Invitation letters are not a guarantee of admission. Visas may be denied if the traveller you are inviting:

Visitors to Canada are required to show evidence they can support themselves or that their host will assist them financially. Include information such as if you will provide food, accommodation, or other financial support for your visitors. Proof a foreign national visiting, working or studying in Canada has a place to stay can include:
Bring an Itinerary of the places you plan to travel to with your visitor and approximate dates. Indicate if you plan to take days off from your work or studying to visit with your guest.
When you visit Axess Law, your notary public will prepare a sample letter of invitation for Canada that includes your visitor’s: arrival and leave dates, complete name and date of birth, relationship to you, address and phone number, reasons for being in Canada, length of stay, accommodation plans, and financial arrangements.
Be ready to provide originals or certified true copies of your Canadian birth certificate, citizenship card, PR card for permanent residents, or IMM 1000 proof of landing.
Due to COVID-19, non-essential travel to Canada may be restricted to foreign nationals who are exempt, traveling for compassionate reasons, or visitors who are immediate or extended family members of Canadian citizens, someone registered under Canada’s Indian Act, or permanent residents.
Bring a valid visitor visa or electronic travel authorization (eTA) and a 14-day mandatory quarantine plan. Extended family members require written authorization from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada. Visitors entering for compassionate reasons need written permission from The Public Health Agency of Canada.
Write the letter yourself, but only if you can do so in good faith. Signing any document on behalf of a person you don’t personally know is risky.

Visitors who decide they want to live in Canada can apply to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada. They may apply while in Canada, but only if their visitor visa hasn’t expired. Applications can take months or years to be processed. Unless your guest qualifies for express entry, it is unlikely they will be approved for permanent resident status (called PR) during their visit.
