Super Visa for Parents And Grandparents

The Parent and Grandparent Super Visa is a visa that allows select Canadian entry to parents and grandparents of foreign nationals who have been living in Canada. Using the visa program, the parents/grandparents can stay in the country for around 24 consecutive months without renewing their status.

Right now, the Canadian visa program allows foreign nationals to visit the country and stay here for up to six months during their first-ever Canadian visit. Those who want to stay in the country for an extended period have to pay a new fee.

When parents or grandparents of people living in Canada want to come to the country to pay a visit, they can stay here for up to two years without requiring their visa status. It is all because of Super Visa, which is also known as a multi-entry visa. This select visa type for foreign nationals’ parents and grandparents allows the visa holders to have multiple entries in the country for up to 10 years. A critical difference between Super Visa and other active visas is that it gives parents/grandparents a chance to stay up to 24 months while a 10-year multiple entry visa under other visa types allows one-time entry to the country of six months at one time.
