The Canadian government has updated its visa policy, particularly the rules for multiple-entry visas. Immigration officers now have the discretion to allow multiple entries on a single visa.
Following this change, those with a prior multiple-entry visa may no longer be eligible under the new standards. Officers now have the authority to decide how many times a foreign national can enter Canada and for how long. Although foreign nationals may still apply for a multiple-entry visa, the decision rests entirely with immigration authorities.
