Thoughts as They Come
Answering Questions and recommending Resources for Obtaining a Visa to Canada
About this event: 4th World Youth Congress - Quebec City 2008

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

In the recent weeks, I have been receiving a lot of e-mails from World Youth Congress Delegates- many of the e-mails are asking me the same thing, so I thought I would write a blog about it in the hopes that it may help!

1. If you have any specific questions about the Congress please write to info@wyc2008.qc.ca as this is where your questions should be directed to! Although I would love to be able to help all of you out I just don't have the time to answer and I also want to make sure that you DO get responses to your questions! (The reason some of you may be writing to me is that I have been helping to send out the newsletters and giving Congress up-dates!)

2. Many of you have written wanting to know how to get a visa to Canada and other things like this. I am not an expert on this, but I think a great place to get some information on traveling to canada is through the Canadian Citizenship and Immigration Web site which can be found here http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/ . Hopefully you will find answers to some of your questions here!

3. I know that some of you have been asking where your letters of invitations are. We have sent out all the invitations to the short-listed candidates at this point. However, there may still be a chance for you to receive a letter of invitation, so please check back! We received so many applications that it was difficult for us to narrow them down- even if you can't physically attend the conference, though you will have the chance to follow the Congress through its virtual activities!

Anyways, that's it for now! I will be organizing another Live Chat soon so I hope that this time we can get more delegates to participate!

A question about official letters of invitations
Hello Kirsten,

I just wanna know if WYC 08 delegates will receive an official letter of invitation by mail since I received an official one by email, maybe, there are other letters with more details that will come by mail ?

Thanks in advance for answering my question !
