Introduction:

Navigating Temporary Visa Categories in Canada
 
Canada offers various temporary visas for different purposes, including tourism (TRV)study permits for international students, and work permits for foreign workers. Some programs, like the International Experience Canada (IEC), provide work opportunities for youth, while the Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program (SAWP) supports agricultural employment. Each visa has specific eligibility requirements and application processes, making it important to choose the correct category based on individual needs.
