Super Visa
The Canadian government introduced Super Visas in 2011 to manage the backlog of applications received from visitors who wanted longer stays in Canada. Valid for up to 10 years, the Super Visa is granted to qualified parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens and permanent residents. Unlike the regular visitor’s visa that allows someone to remain in Canada for only six months, the Super Visa allows a stay of up to two years. Before obtaining the visa, however, individuals must show proof of super visa insurance, illustrating that they have purchased medical insurance from a Canadian provider.
Requirement
To apply for a Super Visa in Canada, every applicant entering the country must have at least $100,000 health coverage for a period over the length of 1 year issued by a Canadian insurance company. This ensures visitors can pay for their health care if they become sick or injured while in Canada. The insurance coverage must be valid every time when entering into Canada, and subject to inspection when required.
