Hi Himani,

As your mom was approved for only a 6-months SEV TRV (and after three refusals if I remember correctly), the visa officer was not fully convinced that she intends to visit short-term.

While you can certainly apply for an extension to her visitor status, I suggest that she returns to India instead. After that, do wait for a few months before you apply for another TRV or a super visa. This will help to prove that she has re-established her home country ties


Cheers

As Bryanna noted, you can certainly ask for an extension, but I would be cautious. Given she received a single entry TRV after so many refusals, I would expect IRCC has noted this possibility on her file. Think of this first TRV as a test to confirm if the visit was in fact short term. I would expect a refusal, particularly asking for 2 additional years and with both her children in Canada. And I suspect that a visa after a refusal will be highly unlikely, be it a TRV or a Supervisa. Better to send her home, wait a few months and apply again......show them her being here is not permanent.
