Frequently Asked Questions
Super Visa processing times vary by country and are generally longer than regular visitor visas. Check your country-specific estimate on this page for the most current timeline.
A Super Visa allows parents and grandparents to stay in Canada for up to 5 years per visit, compared to 6 months for a regular visitor visa. It requires proof of medical insurance and financial support from the host child or grandchild.
You need a letter of invitation from your child or grandchild, proof of their income meeting the minimum threshold, valid medical insurance from a Canadian insurer, a completed medical exam, and standard visa documents.
