Embarking on the path to secure a Canadian visa is a journey filled with anticipation and meticulous steps. One common question that often arises is, “Will I get an email if my Canada visa is approved?”
Email Confirmation for Online Applicants
If you’ve applied for a Canadian visa online, the good news is that you will indeed receive an email notification if your application is approved.
This email will contain the official approval letter and an additional letter with detailed instructions on the subsequent steps you need to take.
Accessing Information in Your IRCC Account
For online applicants, the approval letter and related instructions will be accessible in your IRCC (Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada) account.
This digital platform serves as a secure repository for essential documents and communication related to your visa application.
Approval Letter Doesn’t Grant Immediate Travel Authorization
It’s crucial to understand that receiving the approval letter, whether through email or in your IRCC account, doesn’t automatically grant you the authorization to travel to Canada.
The final step involves waiting until the visa is officially stamped in the passport you submit.
Email Communication for Paper Applications
If you opted for a paper application, rest assured that email communication is still an integral part of the notification process.
You will receive an email containing the approval letter and detailed instructions on submitting your passport, albeit through a different channel.
Passport Submission Instructions
Regardless of whether you applied online or on paper, the approval letter will be accompanied by instructions on submitting your passport.
For online applicants, this may involve following the outlined steps in your IRCC account. If you applied on paper, you will receive instructions on submitting your passport by mail.
