Preparing a retired traveller’s records
Retired applicants should explain their present circumstances rather than trying to supply employment records that no longer apply. Relevant pension, savings, family and host information can be organised around the intended visit.
Clarify how the trip will be funded and who is providing accommodation. If a child or grandchild is hosting a longer visit, compare the ordinary visitor and Super Visa requirements before collecting documents.
Before contacting us from Dehradun
Have your nationality, proposed dates, travel purpose and whether a Canadian host is involved ready for the initial discussion. Ask what assistance is included and what the charges are before proceeding. Keep original documents with you unless a specific next step has been agreed.
Our document checklist explains the main record groups. The application process covers submission, official instructions and later requests.
