My mom entered Canada 2 months ago as a visitor in 6 months. But she didn't get a visitor record in her passport like mine. I came to Canada as a visitor too (follow my husband) and I got a visitor record to allow me to stay until my husband's study permit expires. So I think my mom should receive the same record which indicate the length of her stay.
Does anyone experience the same? And should I contact CIC to ask?
Many thanks.

For how long is you visitor record? Your Mom was given the usual 6 months allowed visit (if she got just a stamp on her passport on her arrival in Canada).
Yes, my mom just got a stamp on her pp, nothing else. And 6 months is indicated in her visa only.
My stay was 3years, is that why I had a visitor record?
Thank you very much Job_seeker! Have a happy 2010!

You were given a visitor record because you are allowed to stay longer (for the same amount of time of your husband's study permit). I think you can also apply for an open work permit so you can work (if you wish to) while you are in Canada with your husband.

Just bumping an old thread as I had a similar question. Me and my spouse are both PRs and now in Alberta. We moved into Canada in September 2016. My infant daughter is not a PR but came with us on a multiple entry visitor visa. Her PR sponsorship application is in progress now, my sponsorship eligibility has been approved and her medical results have been received.
Her visitor visa is valid till 2020. Now she will be completing 6 months in Canada in March. I am not sure if I need to apply for an extension of her stay since the PR application is still in progress and not yet approved. But the immigration officer at the airport didn't issue a visitor record for her and no return date is specified in the stamp on her passport. I had told the officer at the airport that we are moving back in to Canada as I have a job offer and will be sponsoring my daughter.
Would really appreciate any help in determining whether I should go ahead with the application for stay extension or whether she was allowed to stay with us till the visa expires. I am believe the PR application gets through before 2020 which is when the visitor visa expires.
