The Super Visa allows parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens or permanent residents to visit Canada for an extended period without frequent renewals.
Dependents cannot be included. Only parents/grandparents and their spouse or common-law partner can apply.
The Super Visa offers a major advantage over a regular visitor visa (TRV) by allowing longer stays and reducing the need for frequent renewals.
