See PR pathwayIf your parents or grandparents want to spend real time with you in Canada — not just six months — the Super Visa is the route almost every family ends up using, since Canada's permanent Parents and Grandparents Program hasn't opened a new intake since 2020.
A multi-entry visa valid for up to 10 years, letting parents or grandparents stay up to 5 consecutive years each visit — extendable by 2 more years from inside Canada.
Available to parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens or permanent residents. Other relatives aren't eligible under this specific route.
The Canadian child or grandchild (the "host") must show household income at or above Canada's Low Income Cut-Off (LICO) for their family size, reviewed annually.
The applicant needs private Canadian medical insurance with at least $100,000 coverage, valid for a minimum of one year from entry.
From March 31, 2026, hosts can qualify using either of the two preceding tax years, and the visiting parent's own Canadian income can now count toward the threshold.
The applicant must complete a medical exam with an IRCC-designated panel physician before travelling.
Note: Canada's LICO thresholds are published annually and vary by family size — we confirm the exact figure for your household during your free assessment rather than quoting a number that may already be out of date.
There's no single "Canada PR visa" — it's a sequence of steps, and the right one depends on how you first entered Canada.
Graduate from an eligible DLI, work in Canada on a Post-Graduation Work Permit, then apply through Express Entry's Canadian Experience Class once you have qualifying skilled work experience.
Provinces nominate candidates who match their local labour needs — often faster than federal Express Entry if you have a job offer or in-demand skills in a specific province.
Spouses, partners, and (via the capped Parents and Grandparents Program, when open) parents can be sponsored for PR by a Canadian citizen or permanent resident relative.
Permit extensions, DLI transfers, and open work permit applications for students and workers already in Canada — see our dedicated onshore services.
We're not affiliated with any single institution — we guide applications to public DLIs across every province.
It depends on the route. A study permit is CAD $150 plus $85 biometrics. A visitor visa (TRV) is CAD $100 plus $85 biometrics. A Super Visa follows the same $100 + $85 visitor visa fee structure, but also requires the host to meet income requirements and the applicant to hold $100,000 medical insurance.
A standard visitor visa allows stays of up to 6 months per visit and has no income or insurance requirement. A Super Visa, available only to parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens/PRs, allows stays of up to 5 years per visit but requires the host to meet LICO income thresholds and the applicant to hold $100,000 Canadian medical insurance.
The most common routes for our clients are Express Entry (often via the Canadian Experience Class after a PGWP), Provincial Nominee Programs, and family sponsorship. There's no single "PR visa" application — it's a sequence that depends on how you first entered Canada.
Yes. Beyond study and visitor visas, we advise on Super Visa applications, PR pathway planning, and onshore services for students and workers already in Canada — permit extensions, DLI transfers, and open work permits.
Yes, but under a capped system. For 2026, IRCC has allocated 309,670 study permit application spaces for students requiring a Provincial Attestation Letter, with master's and doctoral students at public DLIs exempt from that requirement as of January 1, 2026.
