Visa Expiring - Extension/Renewal

[Raheel16]

Hi all,

I'm in need of some clarification as to when visa is expiring, is there a way to file an extension or start the process of new visa application while the current one is still valid?

Scenario:

My in-laws have (PG-1) visa, multiple entries allowed, the visa is expiring on June 2nd 2023, they're unable to enter Canada prior to the expiry date and would like to be in Canada in August instead. At that time, visa will be expired. Is there a process which allows them to apply for perhaps 'Super Visa' right now so by August hopefully they'll have visa that will be valid? Or it's not possible to initiate a new visa application right now as the current one is still valid until June 2nd?

What are my options? Any help would be appreciated.

You can initiate new one that will invalidate current one if approved while previous one is valid.

Would apply as soon as possible if they can to travel by the summer.

Acknowledged.

If the new one is not approved for whatever reason, can they still travel by June 2nd on the previous one if need be?

Yes, Unless if they invalidate previous one which i dont see reason to do that

They still have to qualify for supervisa insurance. If their visa is still valid they also need to be able to purchase supervisa insurance to qualify to travel.
