If you need a visa to enter Canada, then we will issue an official invitation letter to you, which you will need in order to apply for the visa. In order to request the letter, please submit the following documentation:

1. Your passport deails

4. A letter or email from your team leader stating that you are a member of the Country Team.

This documentation is to be sent to icwip2014@wlu.ca with the subject line "Request for ICWIP-2014 visa invitation letter". The conference will be unable to process your request for a visa invitation letter if any of the documentation items are missing.

Please ensure that these  matters are dealt with as early as possible in order to allow sufficient time for unexpected difficulties or delays.
