Eligibility - Click Here
It
should be noted that a visa exemption does not guarantee automatic
eligibility. Requirements must still be met and an immigration
officer’s enquirers must be satisfied before entry to Canada is granted.
Aside from
a valid passport, the individual must provide financial proof
that they
can support themselves and any dependents during his or her stay
in Canada.
How to Apply - Click Here
After determining eligibility, Italians wishing to visit Canada must fill
out an application form and submit it to the Visa Section of the Canadian
Embassy in Rome. If an interview is required, the applicant must come
to the visa office. The following documents must be provided:
- A completed family composition form
- A valid, original international passport
- Two passport-sized photographs
- Documents depicting financial situation (bank statements, bank book or proof of property ownership)
- Letter of invitation, if needed.
- Non-refundable processing fee
Italians Visiting Canada for Work
In order for Italians visiting Canada to obtain work, they must first
acquire a work permit while still in Italy. A work permit will not be
issued once the individual has landed in Canada. In order to apply for
a work permit, the applicant must submit the same documents as they would
for a temporary resident visa, but they also must include a letter from
the employer proving date of hire, type of employment, position held,
and leave approval. These documents must be accompanied with an official
translation in French or English. A fee must also be made before processing
of the application can begin.
International Experience Canada
International Experience Canada (also called the Working Holiday Program)
is valid for those between the age of 18 and 35 years, in both Canada
and Italy. Individuals can participate only once in this program, and
do so with the intention of learning about the culture, language and customs
of the country. Italians visiting Canada under this program are granted
a work permit for a period of six months, which allows them to seek and
obtain employment in Canada. Eligibility requirements include being a
permanent resident/citizen of Italy.
