Planning to Apply for a Super Visa?

A Super Visa is a long-term, multiple-entry visa for parents and grandparents of permanent residents or Canadian citizens.

The "Parent and Grandparent Super Visa" is a temporary resident permit that allows parents and grandparents to stay for up to 2 years in Canada per visit. It is valid for up to 10 years.

A regular "Multiple-Entry Visa" or "Visitor Visa" is also valid for up to 10 years, but only allows stays of up to 6 months per visit.

Why You Need Health Insurance in Canada

The Canadian government does not pay for hospital or medical services for visitors, immigrants, and returning Canadians.

If you or your family are visiting Canada, immigrating to Canada, applying for a Super Visa, or are a returning Canadian waiting to be covered by a Provincial Government Health Insurance Plan, you need health insurance while in Canada.
