Super Visa
Super Visa
A Super Visa is a long term visa for parents and grandparents of Canadian Citizens and Permanent Residents of Canada. It provides parents and grandparents with a 10-year multiple entry visa to visit Canada and allows for stays of up to 5 years at a time.
Super Visa is an excellent option for bringing your parents to Canada on a long-term basis. They may also use it while waiting for their permanent residence application to be processed, or for those who are not able to sponsor their parents or grandparents.
To be eligible for a Super Visa:
- The sponsor must meet the minimum necessary income (for Super Visa) requirement, and provide the most recent Canadian tax return (Notice of assessment) where line 150 meets or exceeds this amount.
- Purchase Canadian healthcare insurance of $100,000 coverage for at least 1 year.
- Complete a medical examination
- A written commitment of financial support from the Sponsor (child or grandchild) must be provided
