I suggested buying return tickets with a return date of one year (the maximum that airlines will allow) and then cancelling the return tickets if they are allowed to stay for up to 2 years.
Recent Port of Examination changes state that unless specifically written and also only for the initial visit, no passport stamp means the allowed stay is for 6 months even for super visa visitors. Basically, a stay of up to 2 years is not an assurance for super visa holders
Hi Bryanna,
I happened to follow through the information and @ below
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...isitors/examination-admission-port-entry.html
It appears IRCC has updated the content slightly now under "Length of admissions"
It says
________________________________
Length of admissions
An officer at the POE will determine the length of time that a temporary resident may remain in Canada.
Note: In general, stamps issued by CBSA officers at the POE are valid for a period of six months from the date of entry.
If a handwritten date has been placed under the stamp, the period of authorized stay expires on that date.
For parents and grandparents who possess the super visa temporary resident visa or letter of introduction, a stamp in their passport with no handwritten date means the period of authorized stay is two years.
Learn more about duration of visits.

For example, for parents and grandparents who possess the super visa temporary resident visa or letter, CBSA officers will handwrite a date that is 2 years from the date of entry on their initial visit only.
