5. A Canadian entry visa (where required). To determine if you need an entry visa to Canada, consult this Visa Information Site.
6. Biometrics (where required).  You can determine whether you are from a country that is on the Biometrics list by checking here.

Note: You may travel to Canada and return to the US with an expired F-1 student visa or as long as your travel is limited to Canada and you return within 30 days.

Canadian Visas

The Canadian government offers an excellent website, Application for a Temporary Resident Visa to Visit Canada, which will answer many of your questions. Please refer to it.

If you are from a country whose citizens are required to have an entry visa to Canada, you should apply for the visa well ahead of your departure date. You CANNOT apply for the entry visa at the border.  For current processing times, check this chart for the Los Angeles office.  The best advice we can give you is to apply for your visitor visa as far as possible before your planned trip to Canada.

You may apply for a visa by mail or online.  The closest Visa Application Center is in Los Angeles.  If your home country is on the Biometrics list mentioned earlier, you must first visit the Application Support Center in Portland.

Since you will be sending important identification documents including your passport and I-20, YOU MUST USE A TRACKABLE METHOD OF SHIPPING, SUCH AS FEDEX, UPS, OR the US POSTAL SERVICE EXPRESS MAIL. Do NOT use regular mail to send your passport or other immigration documents.
