    I got an eTA for Canada last June but have stupidly since deleted the confirmation email. I'm off to Toronto again in a couple of weeks with work. I know these are valid for 5 years but I'd like some form of confirmation before I go. Can I get a reference number anywhere or should I just apply again?

    As far as I know they are linked to your passport number and will show up when they scan your passport.

    You can check the status of your eTA here with your passport details.

    Yes I think this is the case, but I don't want to show up for my flight and then find out I don't have one so I'd like to confirm beforehand. As its cheap to get one, I think I'll just apply again

    Thanks I had found that, but when I select "I have an approved eTA. I want to consult my file", it throws up another box to input eTA number, which is what I do not have
