What is a Canada Super Visa?
The Canada Super Visa is a multiple-entry temporary resident visa that allows eligible parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens or permanent residents to visit Canada for extended stays.
Unlike a regular Visitor Visa, the Super Visa generally permits approved applicants to remain in Canada for up to 5 years per visit, with the visa remaining valid for multiple entries for up to 10 years or until passport expiry, subject to the decision of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
