Parents accompanying my wife.

Hello everyone.

My wife recently got her approval and PPR. We've submitted her passport. She's wondering if it is possible or recommended to have her parents follow her on a super visa to help her settle here when she flies over.

I have no issue with that as her parents are really nice people, but I just want to make sure that they don't encounter any issues. If it would be better for them to follow a few weeks after, I'd like to know.

Any advice would be appreciated.

It should be no problem at all. The supervisa app and your wife's PR app are 2 separate things.

Her parents can't actually apply for a supervisa until after she has landed in Canada as a PR.

If they want to fly with her when she does her landing, they need to apply for TRVs.

Agreed. They don't qualify for a super visa at this time.

Ah yes, her spouse can't apply for in-laws so must wait for PR status.

Of course TRV is basically just as good, and can apply for supervisa later on if parents want to stay here longer term.
