H-Visas

Amid recent developments regarding travel restrictions imposed by the Canadian and US governments, please be advised that our KLM offices will remain open, and that both the Canadian Consulate in New York City and in Los Angeles remain active and continue to process applications for both the Temporary Resident Permit (TRP) and the Criminal Rehabilitation (CR). The average processing time for a TRP application is currently evaluated at 4 months, and that of a CR may take anywhere between 6-12 months to process. Please note that expedited TRP applications may still be processed at the border for immediate travel needs. If you plan to travel to Canada in late-summer, fall, or beyond, we may begin the application process as soon as possible in order to ensure that your TRP or CR application is approved by your expected travel date.
