As an alternative to sponsorship of a parent/grandparent, the Government of Canada offers the "Parent and Grandparent Super Visa," which will be valid for up to ten (10) years. The multiple-entry visa will allow an applicant in Canada for up to twenty-four (24) months at a time without the need for renewal of their status.Immigration Refugee and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will be able to issue the visas, on average, within eight (8) weeks of the application. This means that instead of waiting for eight (8) years, a parent or a grandparent can come to Canada within eight (8) weeks. Parent and Grandparent Super Visa applicants will be required to obtain private Canadian health-care insurance for their stay in Canada.
