The application threshold for a Canadian accompanying visa is not high. The Canadian Embassy also actively advocates applicants with excellent qualifications to apply for short-term visas and is willing to provide a longer visa period. However, this does not mean that all applicants for a Canadian escort visa will be approved successfully. If the application materials are incomplete or the statement is unclear, the Canadian visa officer will still act in accordance with the regulations and may refuse the visa. Therefore, it is very necessary to fully prepare or consult a professional when applying for such a visa.
