About Visa
The Super Visa Program allows parents and grandparents to come to Canada as long-term visitors. Successful applicants receive multiple-entry visitor visas that may last for up to 10 years. Unlike standard visitor visas, which must be renewed every six months, a Super Visa remains valid for two years at a time. To be eligible for the Super Visa program, parents and grandparents must meet standard visitor visa requirements.
Depending on the nationality, parents/grandparents may require a Temporary Resident Visa in addition to the Super Visa.
Features
Successful parents and grandparents under this program will receive Canadian permanent residence and may be able to apply for Canadian Citizenship four years thereafter.
