About the Visitor & Super Visa
A Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) — also called a visitor's visa or entry visa — is a document placed in your passport and used to enter or re-enter Canada. Holding a TRV does not guarantee entry to Canada: the admission of foreign nationals as temporary residents is a privilege, not a right, and the final decision at the border rests with the border services officer.
The Super Visa allows parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens and permanent residents to come to Canada as long-term visitors, with multi-entry validity of up to 10 years and stays of up to five years at a time without renewing status. We prepare both TRV and Super Visa applications with a realistic, well-documented picture of your ties, purpose, and finances.

Understanding your options
What an officer considers
Immigration officers consider several factors before deciding whether you can come to Canada. You must be a genuine visitor who will leave at the end of your visit.
An officer will typically weigh: your ties to your home country, the purpose of your visit, your family and finances, and the overall economic and political stability of your home country. A strong application documents each of these honestly and consistently.
Super Visa at a glance
Successful Super Visa applicants do not need to renew their visitor visa every six months — they are granted a multi-entry visitor visa valid for up to 10 years, with stays of up to two years at a time.
You can apply online or on paper. Key requirements include being the parent or grandparent of a Canadian citizen or permanent resident, your child or grandchild meeting the minimum income threshold, a written financial-support statement, valid Canadian medical insurance for at least one year, and an immigration medical exam.
