The Super Visa is a temporary resident visa that allows eligible parents or grandparents to meet their children or grandchildren in Canada. This visa grants multiple entries into Canada for up to 10 years. The key feature of this visa is that your parents or grandparents can stay with you for 5 years at a time. In case the parents or grandparents wish to stay for a period of less than six months, they should apply for a visitor visa.
