I have to go back home with an expired TRV

[Kaurprabh33]

Hello everyone,
I have a question. My TRV is expired but I have a valid study permit. I have to travel to India in case of emergency. I have applied for my renewal of TRV but I haven’t gotten any decision. Can I still leave Canada and get it stamped from India when it is approved??
Can I still board a flight with expired TRV?

Please help me out.
Thank you

You can leave with expired TRV you just cant come back.

I believe you would need to inform IRCC that you are no longer in Canada so that you can submit your passport at another processing centre.

Thank you for the information. So do I just call IRCC and inform them what I will be doing?

Hey,
So I have one more question, can I directly get it stamped from the visa office (without sending my passport) after my TRV application is approved?

No. You need to mail the passport.
