Hi,

My mom is currently here on a 10 year super visa. She has stayed for 2 years and now we are looking to extend her stay for another year. I have looked online and I'm not 100% sure if I have all of the necessary documents for extending her stay. Currently, I have completed:
1) the checklist,
2) the extend stay form,
3) a letter of invitation that includes all of the necessary information,
4) document that lists my income, and
5) a letter that states the reason for extension.

I have also included a copy of my passport, certificate of citizenship and a copy of her passport. Is there anything else I have to include? Do I have to include a copy of the extension of medical insurance, return flight information and a passport type photograph of her? Also, how long can I extend her stay for ie, is there a certain limit? Finally, does she have to undergo a medical exam?

Also, if I wanted to take her down to the US for a trip, should I apply for the US visitor Visa after the super visa has been extended? i have also read that applying for a US Visa while in Canada on a super visa is likely to result in a rejection as my mother is not applying for the US visa from her home country. Is this true?

Thank you in advance for the help.

You need to include your bank statements + any other financial documents/investments + your recent NOA.


Do I have to include a copy of the extension of medical insurance,
Yes


return flight information and a passport type photograph of her?
No


Also, how long can I extend her stay for ie, is there a certain limit?
Max. one year extension


Finally, does she have to undergo a medical exam?
IRCC will inform you if it is required.


Also, if I wanted to take her down to the US for a trip, should I apply for the US visitor Visa after the super visa has been extended?
You can try

That's true, but each case is different

Hey im hoping you can help me. Im applying to extend my mom and dads stay. They are here on a supervisa. Did you get the extension approved?

I have a question about one of the questions in the form 5708. The question states: "My expenses in Canada will be paid by". This form is from the point of view of the principle applicant(my dad). So should we put "myself"as the answer or should we put "other" and say "by my son" since its a supervisa? On that same note what should I put for this question for my mom?

You should answer by telling the truth. Do your parents have the funds to support themselves while in Canada or will you be relying on you for funds?
