Hello!
I am in Canada on a 6 month visitor visa, which expires in August. I sent in an application to extend it in June.
But, I'm having trouble getting a straight answer from CIC... is it correct that I have so called implied status and can remain in Canada while my extension application is being processed, should my current visa expire before I get a reply from CIC? How does it work? (I'm just very wary about overstaying my welcome.)
Also, one of the CIC Call Centre agents I spoke to told me I had to do a medical if I were to stay in Canada for more than 6 months, whatever my reasons were. They would mail me the necessary papers after I sent in my application. That was a first for me, I can't find any information on that anywhere. Is it correct? I'm from Sweden, if that should matter.
Thank you for reading. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Visitor - implied status? Medical?
