Working Holiday Visa - UK

[Elliot1]

Good evening all,

I have recently moved to Calgary from London on a working holiday visa and am currently looking for full time employment so that I may extend my stay once my visa expires.

I have a quick question regarding re-entry; on the visa (stapled) in my passport it states "this does not authorize re-entry".

Does this mean if I leave Canada for a week and attempt to re-enter my working holiday visa will not longer be valid?

Or does it simply mean i need to go to imigration when crossing the boarder on my return for them to 'revalidate' my paperwork?

Thanks in advance

Elliot

Hi

I had a working holiday visa from the UK and I went to the US and back home etc. without any issues - you are allowed to come and go as you please.

I had that printed at the bottom of mine too.

ok perfect, thanks very much for clarifying that for me.

did they let you straight back in or did you have to got through the imigration area again?

You just go in the international queue, pick up your luggage (if applicable) and leave.
