After the visa office receives your application, it might request more information
or documents. These may include the following:
Medical information: To get medical clearance, you will need to undergo a
medical examination. A visa officer will send you instructions if you need a medical
examination. This process, if needed will require a longer processing time of your
application (say additional 3 months).
Security information: If you are a student candidate for Canada, and want
to get a family member along with you (both being over 18 years of age), both will
need to provide police certificates. An interview, if required, can be conveniently
scheduled at the application center. Students from India, Nepal and Bhutan need
to pay a Visa fee, which amounts to Rs. 5470. Besides the visa fee, visa applicants
in India, Nepal and Bhutan are required to pay a non-refundable service charge.
