The super visa is a multiple entry visa for parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens and permanent residents. It allows current super visa holders to visit Canada for up to 5 years at a time.
The Canada super visa also has some advantages over other types of visas, such as the standard visitor’s visa, which only lasts six months.
The visa is only available to children and grandchildren of Canadian citizens or permanent residents who are over the age of 18. The super visa cannot be applied for by parents/grandparents who have resided in Canada for more than five years in the last 10 years, unless they meet certain requirements.
To qualify for a super visa, you must:
In addition to these requirements, you need to:
Another thing to keep in mind is that you can’t include dependents in this application.
The following documents are required for the Super Visa application:
The cost of applying for a super visa is $100 CAD. The fee is non-refundable. This cost covers the processing of your application.
If you have been granted a super visa and wish to extend it, you must submit an application no later than 90 days prior to its expiry date. The fee to extend your super visa is $100 CAD per year.
The processing times for a Canada Super Visa will vary depending on the country you are applying from.
The processing time for a new application varies depending on which country you are applying from and whether or not you have already applied for a Canadian visitor visa before. If this is the first time you have applied for a Canadian Super Visa, it can take between 2-6 months to process your application.
However, if you have previously been refused entry into Canada or had any other issues with previous visitor visas, this could impact your application time as well.
To apply for a super visa, you must submit an online application with the IRCC Portal and be outside Canada when you submit it.
To begin an application for a visa with the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) department, log on to their website and create an account.
Next, complete the online form and upload supporting documents to prove your eligibility for a visa. Finally, pay your fees via credit card or prepaid card.
When you submit your visa application, you will be required to give your biometrics. You must pay the biometrics fee before giving your biometrics. If you have not paid the fee, your application may be delayed.
You can also apply on paper if you can’t apply online because of a disability, or if you are travelling with an identity or travel document issued to someone who is a refugee, stateless or non-citizen.
After you have provided your biometrics and your application has been submitted, the Canadian government may also ask you to do the following:
If your application is approved, a visa will be stamped in your passport. If you’re from a visa-exempt country, IRCC will issue you a letter to give to a border services officer when you arrive in Canada.
If your application is refused, you will receive an explanation including the reasons for refusal and your right of appeal.
