Super visa Canada- an overview

The Super Visa category in Canada enables the parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens or Permanent residents to apply for temporary resident status to visit their children and grandchildren in Canada. Both single-entry and multiple-entry visitor visas are offered by the Canadian government. Single entry visas can be availed for up to 2 years while multiple-entry ones are valid for up to 10 years. Both have their own set of requirements such as insurance, medical examination, invitation letter, and financial support. For those planning to visit Canada for 6 months or less, Canada recommends a range of visitor visas, instead of super visas.

Who is eligible?

The eligibility requirements to apply for Super Visa Canada are as follows:

• The applicant must be the parent or grandparent of a Permanent Canadian Resident or a Canadian citizen.
• The applicant must have signed a letter from their child or grandchild who is inviting them to Canada. The letter includes:
  • An agreement that says that you will be financially supported during your stay in Canada.
  • A list of people living in the house of the person inviting you
  • A proof of this person’s PR or Canadian citizenship
  • A proof of your paid medical insurance. The applicant must be medically insured from any of the Canadian insurance companies with:
    • The validity of at least 1 year from the date of entry
    • Coverage of at least $100,000

 

The Government of Canada sets some general rules for a super visa which are as follows:

• The applicant must be living outside Canada and be admissible to get the super visa
• The applicant must undergo the immigration medical exam with a panel physician
• The super visa application should not include dependents

 

Your application for Super Visa is evaluated based on:
