Super Visa - anyone applied as yet?

@ Pari123

it seems the initial approval if submitted online is done by Ottawa and the file is then fowarded to the local office you indicated in the application form.

they ultimately will decide if visa is granted but i find online a lot easier to do and its all about documentation

good luck !!!

@ Pari123

i would suggest you use the come to canada wizard and it will give you the appropriate documents required.
i would suggest you use the parent with most access to documentation i.e demonstration of ties to home and the other will be the secondary applicant..

good luck !!!

Thank you so much Twiggy...you are awesome +2 for you

Hi

I also need to fill this form and wondering both my parents will be
Principle Applicant ?

No, there can be only one Principal Applicant, another parent is a dependent.

Will Ottawa finalize the application in Canada if Ottawa has been chosen as the local office?

I believe so since that will be the *country in which you are applying from*

But my parents are back home so I can apply on their behalf online and can select visa office in India...right

 

[twiggy]

you are applying on their behalf (so all questions are related to them and not you). they are india so the country they are applying from is india and not here

good luck !!!

There's lots of great advice and information on this forum! Thanks to all contributors! I use it as a resource to stay on top of things because I have quite a few clients that ask questions about the application process, and that's not my area of expertise.

Hello everyone! Im new here in this forum. I want to apply a supervisa for my mother. We are 4 here in Canda, my husband, my 22 yrs old son (working-not married) and my 18 yrs old daughter (student). We are 3 in family that are all working. My question is how much is the required family income (LICO) that we need for my mother's application for supervisa? I will really appreciate for your responses. Thanks in advance.

Hi All,

I hope someone out here will be able to help me. I applied for a Super Visa for my mother-in-law in Islamabad, Pakistan and 2 weeks after I received the TRV refusal letter. The have given me two reasons:

1) travel history;
2) personal assets and financial status.

I think the primary reason of refusal is 2. My mother-in-law does not work; nor does her husband. They are above 50 and live off their sons who are abroad. They do not own a property in Pakistan. My mother-in-law has strong ties in Pakistan: 1 husband, 1 son (student) and 1 daughter (student). She must return to Pakistan to be with her family.

I relied on attaching my strong financial position in Canada. I am a Professional and working for the same firm for the last 8 years. I attached my T4, employment letter, last 6 pay slips, last 3 months bank statement along with city taxes of my house (I know it was an overkill, but I wanted to make ensure CIC that money was not an issue).

I would like to re-apply. What do you recommend? How can I show the financial status of my mother-in-law? I thought that super visa was putting a financial burden on the sponsor and not on the visa applicant. This refusal really confused me.

Any suggestions/recommendations will be highly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi everyone,

I'm wondering is there anyone have successfully extend parents TRV to super visa or as TRV in Canada? If yes, could you please share the procedure?

Now my mum hold a multi-entry TRV in Canada. I want her to stay here as long as possible. I'm a new PR, haven't found a job yet but my sister is Canadian citizen, she can apply the super visa for our mum. She bought a house few years ago and have 1 children and have a stable job.

I heard that we can extend parents TRV to super visa in Canada, is it true?

Will cic reject the super visa application due to the housing loan and family expenses? Or as long as can show that she meet the LICO then everything will be ok? Please advise.

The LICO requirement for super visa is before or after any other deduction(Eg: income tax, EI...etc)?

Regarding proof of fund. Can my sis show her & her husband's bank statement as proof of fund? At least how much money she need to show? Can my mum show her home country bank statement?or show my bank statement?

How high is the chances to get the super visa?

I'm a new PR. If I only work for 1 month can I extend my mum TRV to super visa?

Can my sis and I sign the form together and show our pay stub as proof of LICO (if I am able to found a job before submit the super visa application)?

What reason should I stated in the letter for extension?

Once the parents sponsorship re-open, we will submit the form. But now has closed so we only can extend her stay as TRV or super visa. Definitely want my mum stay here forever now I'm looking for the best solution to do it.

How about medical insurance? Buy 1st or buy after super visa get approved? How much do I need to pay annually?
----------------------------------------------------------------
If extend as TRV

If continue to extend to TRV, how high is the chances to get approved? Can be extend to 3 mths? 1 year? 2 years? How to ask for it? Please advise.

What reason should I write in the letter? It's been about 12 years my mum and sis doesn't see each other. This is my mum first trip to Canada. Now my mum can stay 6 months.

I'm not working right now. Can i help my mum extend her stay? Can i use my bank statement as proof of financial?


Wish all the senior in this forum can provide some advise and answer.

Thanks everyone!

Sincerely,
Kidrobot
