Want Parents on Temporary Basis Better Visitor Visa or Super Visa

[Sukhbir Singh]

I want to invite my parents to Canada temporarily. Should I try a visitor visa or super visa?

If your income meets the LICO figure for the last year and have Notice of Assessment, you should invite your parents on a super visa instead of temporary resident visa.

Hon. Minister of Immigration by using his Ministerial Authority (OB357), given in IRPA in section 15(4) launched super visa on December 01, 2011. It is an optional process according to which Canadian citizens and permanent residents can invite their parents and grandparents to Canada on a temporary resident status. Each entry of parents can be granted for up to two years unless the validity of the passport or super visa is for a lesser period.
