5.2 VISITOR - LETTER OF SUPPORT - INVITER IS CANADIAN CITIZEN OR PERMANENT RESIDENT

Letter of Support from Canadian Citizen or Permanent Resident

The ideal person to provide your Letter of Invitation depends on the reason for your visit to Canada:
‍An invitation letter is an official invitation from someone in the destination country, inviting you to visit. A letter of sponsorship details financial support, showing that someone in the destination country will help cover your expenses during your stay. The support letter should be written by a Canadian citizen or Permanent Resident residing in Canada and can be provided for friends and family members.
‍
Information that should be included in the letter?
‍- The letter should accompany an invitation letter and contain:
- Essential details about both the visa applicant and the person providing support.
- A photocopy of a document proving the support person’s status in Canada.

Additional Considerations
- Note that merely writing a letter of support does not make the inviter legally responsible for the visitor once they arrive in Canada.
- The letter should be written in good faith, with truthful information.
- The letter should be notarized in front of a notary.
- The visitor must submit this letter along with their invitation letter and visa application to the Canadian embassy or consulate outside of Canada.
