Super Visa for Parents & Grandparents
The Super Visa is a multi-entry temporary resident visa designed specifically for parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens and permanent residents. It allows stays of up to 5 years per entry, with a validity of up to 10 years.
Eligibility
To apply, you must:
- โ Be a parent or grandparent of a Canadian citizen or PR
- โ Have a signed Letter of Invitation from your Canadian child/grandchild
- โ Have valid medical insurance from a Canadian insurer (minimum 1 year, minimum $100,000 coverage)
- โ Pass an immigration medical exam
- โ Demonstrate your child/grandchild meets the Minimum Necessary Income (MNI)
Minimum Necessary Income
Your Canadian host must meet the MNI for their family size including the parents/grandparents being invited. This is reviewed annually by Statistics Canada.
