What is the difference between a single entry visa, a multiple entry visa and a transit visa?
A single entry visa allows one entry only to Canada, during the validity of the visa.
A multiple entry visa allows several entries to Canada, during the validity of the visa.
A transit visa allows entry to Canada for a short stop-over (maximum 48 hours) en route to another country. If your return travel is also through Canada, you should request a transit visa valid for 2 entries.
I plan to travel several times to the United States during my stay in Canada. Must I apply for a single or multiple entry visa?
A single entry visa will allow you to re-enter Canada several times after travel to the United States or to Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon, as long as it is within the period authorized by the immigration officer when you first enter Canada or the period authorized by an extension of your status. This is no longer true once you leave Canada, the United States or Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon for another country.
You must contact the Embassy of the United States for information on entry to that country (visa requirements and applications, passport validity, etc.).
My trip to Canada entails the followings:-
A short stop at Victoria , BC on 5 September, 2009
( Seattle - Victoria - Seattle)
+
A short trip
from New York to Toronto and back to New York
Prima facie, my journeys seem to conform the above requirement, however, will seek further clarification from the Canadian High Com tomorrow.
In the meantime , I only obtained a bank draft for single entry which is 75 Canadian Dollars.
