The Canada Super Visa allows eligible parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens, permanent residents, or registered Indians to visit their family in Canada for extended periods. It is a multiple-entry visa that can be valid for up to 10 years and may allow eligible visitors to stay in Canada for up to 5 years at a time.
Applying for a Super Visa requires meeting specific requirements related to the Canadian host, financial support, medical examination, health insurance, and temporary residence. Our team provides guidance with eligibility assessment, document preparation, financial requirements, and the complete Super Visa application process.
Our Super Visa assistance begins with an assessment of your relationship with your Canadian child or grandchild and the eligibility of your host. We help you understand the applicable requirements and prepare the supporting documents needed for your application.
The Canadian host must generally be at least 18 years old, live in Canada, and be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or registered Indian. The host must also meet the applicable minimum income requirement and provide a signed invitation letter. Applicants must also have the required health insurance and complete an immigration medical examination.
