This is where you apply - I did it last September - really easy. www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/eta/before-apply-eta.html

Many thanks. Also I tink I also need to fill out a health declaration form because of Covid. I have never tested positive for covid but you still need to do this declaration??

yes thanks for that. The Agent did not say that but he probably thought I had already looked that up so thought he did not need to tell me

oh well. At least I have submitted my ETA now.

Getting excited.

I can't remember exactly but I think they came through a couple of days after we filled them in.

It has been more than a couple of days for me so I will have to try and find out somehow

I just found my email confirmation, this is what it said.....

Status : eTA approved
Name : (my name)
Passport number : (my number)
eTA number : J556565656
Expiration : 2025/06/11

Your application for an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) has been approved. You are now authorized to travel to Canada by air.

Sorry, I can't remember how long it took exactly - it probably said how long it might take when you applied.

Thanks just found my approval. For some reason I had to do a search for it. Sometimes my emails are strange and go into my spam or archive folders.

I now have it thaks
