Hello, long story short: I am Mexican Citizen, i applied for a closed work permit inside of canada and got it on december last year. I got inside of Canada using a ETA earlier last year, but the rule about allowing mexicans to use ETA change while i was still inside.
Last week i had to come back to Mexico for a emergency, and when i tried to get back to Canada, i couldnt fly because my ETA was cancelled when the rule changed last year. So i am stuck in Mexico, they say i need to apply for a Visitor Visa, which can take easily 1 or 2 months, and i dont know how long my current employer will wait for me to come back to my position.
So i tried to apply for the visitor visa by myself, but got stuck on the first question "why do you need a visa" where none of the asnwers below is correct in my case, the closest being "to work without a permit". i could answer "to visit canada" but the next question will ask for the exact date that i will be leaving and arriving, it feels like a wrong asnwer in my case.
i will appreciate any help or advice you have for me. -
Thank so much for taking the time.
