Entry into Canada: Canadian law requires that all persons entering Canada carry proof of citizenship and identity. A valid U.S. passport, passport card, or NEXUS card satisfies these requirements for U.S. citizens.
In addition to your passport, you may need a travel authorization such as a visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) to enter Canada. Consult Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada's website to learn which authorization you need: Find out if you need a visa to travel to Canada.
To enter or transit through Canada, most people need a visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization ( eTA ) – not both. Check if you need a visa or an eTA online.
U.S. citizens are exempt from the eTA requirement and must carry proper identification such as a valid U.S. passport. Lawful permanent residents of the United States who hold valid status in the U.S. are exempt from the eTA requirement.
An Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) is an entry requirement for visa-exempt foreign nationals travelling to Canada by air. An eTA is electronically linked to a traveller's passport. It is valid for up to five years or until the passport expires, whichever comes first.
You must have a qualifying reason to travel abroad. USCIS instructions for the advance parole application state that DACA recipients can only travel abroad for education, employment, or humanitarian purposes. Seeking medical treatment, visiting an ailing relative, or attending funeral services for a family member.
If your passport or travel document is lost or stolen, Canadian government offices abroad can issue you an emergency travel document or a temporary passport if you are in urgent, proven need and are stranded in a foreign country.
If you are a TPS beneficiary with an existing, unexpired advance parole document, you may continue to travel and seek reentry to the United States after a trip outside the United States through the period of validity printed on your advance parole document.
If you want to come to Canada, you must apply for individual rehabilitation at least five years after your parole ends.
