Extended Stay Options for Parents and Grandparents
The Super Visa allows parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens or permanent residents to visit family in Canada for extended periods, with stays of up to two years without renewal. This multiple-entry visa, valid for up to 10 years, provides an excellent option for families looking to spend significant time together.
Super Visa Requirements
To qualify for the Super Visa, applicants must demonstrate they are admissible to Canada, have adequate financial support from their Canadian family members, and meet specific medical insurance requirements. Key requirements include:
- Proof of relationship with a Canadian citizen or permanent resident.
- Written commitment of financial support from the sponsoring child or grandchild.
- Medical insurance coverage from a Canadian insurance company valid for at least one year, with a minimum coverage amount.
- Medical insurance coverage from a Canadian insurance company valid for at least one year, with a minimum coverage amount.
Factors Considered in the Super Visa Application
Visa officers assess applicants on their ties to their home country, the purpose of their visit, family and financial situations, and overall country conditions. The applicant’s ties to their home country, economic stability, and intent to return play significant roles in the visa officer’s decision.
Super Visa vs. Sponsorship
It’s important to remember that the Super Visa is a temporary permit. If applicants wish to have their parents or grandparents stay in Canada permanently, they must apply under the Parent and Grandparent Sponsorship program.
