Where Canada visa is stamped in India?

Canadian visas for Indian citizens are not physically stamped in their passports within India. The process is entirely online, and the approval is conveyed electronically.

Once you apply for a Canadian visa online and your application is approved, you will receive an email notification with a link to download your visa document (eTA for short stays or IMM 5292 for permanent residence). You can then print this document and carry it with you when you travel to Canada.

Here’s a quick summary of the Canadian visa application process for Indian citizens:

  1. Apply online: Submit your application and supporting documents through the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) website.
  2. Pay the visa fee: The visa fee varies depending on the type of visa you are applying for. You can pay the fee online using a credit card or debit card.
  3. Biometrics (if required): If you are required to provide biometrics (fingerprints and a digital photo), you will need to schedule an appointment at a Visa Application Centre (VAC). There are VACs located in major cities across India.
  4. Wait for a decision: IRCC will process your application and make a decision within the specified timeframe. You will be notified of the decision by email.
  5. Download your visa (if approved): If your application is approved, you will receive an email with a link to download your visa document. Print this document and carry it with you when you travel to Canada.

I hope this clarifies the Canadian visa application process for Indian citizens.
