Or they can go to the land border to get a new stamp for additional time.

Aren’t they allowed to stay past one year then? Online it says 5years.

do they give visitor record at the border?

It is up to 5 years. The 5 years is not guaranteed. Yes they will have to try to get an extension in order to stay past the date stamped in their passport. They need to provide proof of another 1 year supervisa medical policy, proof of ties to their home country to show they have no intention of remaining in Canada longterm, proof of savings (both your and your parents, etc.)

I reached out to CIC and below is the response I got

Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).​

The parent and grandparent super visa can allow eligible parents and grandparents to remain in Canada for an authorized period of up to two or five years on each entry, depending when you were last admitted into Canada. However, if there is: A stamp in your passport and a handwritten date, or A Visitor Record was issued to you It is important you leave the countryon or before the date indicated on it. A stamp in your passport, but no handwritten date, No stamp in your passport, or You did not require a passport to enter Canada If you entered Canada: before July 4, 2022, it is important that you leave the country two yearsfrom the date of your entry. on or after July 4, 2022, it is important that you leave the country five yearsfrom the date of your entry.

How do you know that they were given a 1 year stay if no date was written in their passport?

The stamp has a date but no handwritten date

The stamp has a date but no handwritten date

Any date specified is what matter not that it is handwritten or not. You’ll need to apply to extend their stay right before the one year is up.

Are you sure they didn’t get a TRV? Does the code on their visa say PG-1?

Then why would they specifically mention handwritten date in the response?
