The system was extended to TRV applications submitted from all countries outside Canada in January 2022. Visa a pplications are assessed on the basis of eligibility and admissibility . For straightforward applications, eligibility is approve d solely by the model, while eligibility for more complex applications is decided upon by an immigration officer. All applications are reviewed by an immigration officer.
