If you already have an application in process
If you choose to apply again, the current visitor visa application will be withdrawn.
- Make sure to include up-to-date information and, if possible, the application number of the application that is in process.
Unfortunately, there is no guarantee of a refund, and you won’t receive a written confirmation that the application has been withdrawn.
If you applied before September 7, 2021, and you already told us that you qualify for a COVID-19 exemption
- You do not need to submit a new application.
- We’ll process the application you submitted before September 7, 2021.
- It doesn’t matter if you applied via the IRCC Portal, via your IRCC secure account or on paper.
