Students/potential graduates who have guests, travelling internationally, to attend their convocation ceremony may need to submit a letter of invitation to the Canadian government (IRCC) to obtain a visitor’s visa for a family member or friend. The letter is used for immigration purposes and does not guarantee entry to Canada. This letter is not a ticket or RSVP to the convocation ceremony.
We have created a template to assist you in preparing your Letter of Invitation for IRCC. Please download an Enrolment Verification letter through Mosaic Self-Service to submit with your Letter of Invitation.
