Super Visa

If you are a Canadian permanent resident or citizen, you may invite your parents or grandparents to Canada on Super Visa. This visa is for 10 years duration, with a maximum single stay of up to five (5) years in Canada. You will have to meet the minimum income level, and purchase at least one year's medical insurance in Canada for your parents (minimum coverage of $100,000 for each person). Your parents may also have to take a medical examination.

Our immigration lawyer will assist our clients to prepare and submit a professionally drafted application which will increase their chances of success. Canada visa applications can be submitted on paper in the applicant's home country, or online from within Canada.

Below are the minimum income levels required for a Super Visa application:

Size of Family Unit         Minimum necessary income

1 person                             $26,620 

2 persons                           $33,140

3 persons                           $40,742 

4 persons                           $49,466

5 persons                           $56,104 

6 persons                           $63,276 

7 persons                           $70,448 

For each additional person, add $6,723.

You must include yourself, your dependent family member(s), and your parent(s) being invited in order to calculate the minimum income level applicable to your case. For example, if you are living in Canada with your dependent spouse, and two dependent children, and you are inviting your mother and father on Super Visa, the total family size will be 6 persons and you will have to show a minimum annual income of $63,276.
