Hello everyone I’m a Canadian Passport holder I was here on a 30 day Visa which I had planned to extend. I however am now in a huge emergency.i always keep my passport in my backpack I just noticed today that my backpack was cut and my passport has been stolen. My visa is expiring in 4 days. I’ve gone to the Canadian embassy to get a new passport they have given me the forms I need to get a new passport I also am going to the police station today to file a report. It will take 20 days to get a new passport which means I will have to overstay. I am in a panic about this. Is their anyway I can go to immigration with just a police letter and can extend my visa until my new passport arrives? I have no idea what to do here. I do not want to overstay and be fined or possibly even worse, I’m in the process of getting a non b visa to get a job here my paperwork and documents are being prepared. Any advice ?
