I can't check in for tomorrow's flight without a Canada transit visa
I am an Indian citizen, traveling to India tomorrow from the USA. I have a valid US work visa. My flight is United (operated by Air Canada), with a connection at Toronto with 1 hour layover. I was trying to check in for my flight, but I cannot check in as I do not have a transit visa!
I think I am screwed, but if I apply online is there any chance of getting it by tomorrow noon?
Best Answer
The processing times for Canadian temporary resident visas (of which the transit visa is one type) applied in the USA is currently 19 days. It's very unlikely that you would be able to receive this visa before tomorrow.
You should contact your ticketing carrier immediately to change your flight itinerary to transit through another country.

Re: Do I Need A Visa For A Connecting Flight Through The US? Yes. There is no transit at US airports and you will need to clear both Immigration and Customs at your first point of entry into the US regardless. You will need either an ESTA or a Visa.Nas - I Can (Official HD Video)
