What is the Super Visa (SV) Visa?
The Super Visa is a special multi-entry visa designed specifically for parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens or permanent residents. Unlike the Parents and Grandparents Program (PGP) which leads to permanent residency, the Super Visa is a temporary visitor visa that allows extended stays. It allows eligible parents and grandparents to visit and stay in Canada for up to 5 years per visit, with the visa remaining valid for up to 10 years. This is an excellent option for Indian parents who want to spend extended time with their children and grandchildren in Canada without going through the PR process.
