Hi Friends.
Need advice. I need to apply for Super Visa for my Mother. My father passed away during last few weeks and we are looking to bring mother here for few months to recover from grief. My question is, apart from Insurance requirement, is our situation (ties to home country) a reason for refusal and any proofs or documents need to be submitted?. She is pension holder and has some funds in Bank. Would that be enough?. Also, any good insurance company that is advised?
Thanks

Sorry to hear about your father, hope you and your mom are ok.
Super-visa is assessed on an overall basis so no one really can't guarantee anything. I was in similar boat, had a terrible tragedy in the family and wanted to bring mom here for some time. She has very weak ties to her home country as well, and strong ties here, and I was nervous about it. But she got approved in 1 week for her supervisa, so there's always hope. I included following in my application:
Income proof: NOA 2016, T4 2017, employment letter, pay-stubs, last 3 month's bank statement.
Ties to home country: Mom's bank statements at two different banks, property papers under her name.
Medical was done upfront, for insurance you can google super visa insurance and you can find plenty.
Other documents: Statement of purpose, Invitation letter. Make sure you provide good reasons here to satisfy the officer that she will leave at the end of her stay. This could include, she has to be back to take care of someone elderly at home (her parents), renew rental agreement for the house, renew pension, doctor's appointment, other social reasons, etc. I said in the application that my mom intends to come for 1 year.
Good luck! Hopefully you get the visa and all goes well.
