Canada introduced changes to the Super Visa program

On June 7, 2022, Sean Fraser, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) announced changes to the Super Visa program, making it easier for Canadians to reunite with their parents and grandparents. The new amendments will come into force on July 4, 2022, and allow super visa holders to stay in Canada for a longer period of time. The super visa holders will be able to stay in Canada for 5 years per entry and request to extend their stay by up to 2 years. In addition, international medical insurance companies also will be allowed to provide the necessary medical coverage for super visa applicants.
