SUPER VISA INSURANCE COVERAGE

Super Visa is introduced by the Government of Canada for the parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens living in foreign countries. Also commonly known as ‘Parents and Grandparents Super Visa’, this came into effect from December 1, 2011, giving a 10-year visa eligibility for the parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens. It is a multi-visit visa offering a long-term visitor status in the country, enabling the visitors to live with their family for two years straight, without having to re-apply for the visa.

Also, tourists and foreign visitors are not eligible for any free medical care provided by the Government of Canada and the healthcare expenses are quite heavy on pockets. Thus, not having visitors insurance when visiting Canada can lead to expensive medical bills and other additional charges that can be financially taxing. To avoid this, it's wise to be covered under the Super Visa Insurance prior to your visit, for both you and your family.

To be eligible for a Super Visa every visitor must fulfill the following criterias:

• Visitors coming to visit you must submit a letter of invitation received from your side.

• Submit an appropriate proof of the relationship they have with you.

• You must obtain Super Visa Insurance under visitor's name from a Canadian insurance provider and they must carry the insurance policy with them for verification.

It is made mandatory by the Government of Canada for any visitor applying for the super visa, to obtain emergency medical insurance coverage from a Canadian insurance provider, with minimum validity of one year. A visitor’s Super Visa Insurance coverage must include the following:

• A minimum medical coverage of $100,000.

• Coverage for health care, hospitalization, and repatriation.

• Insurance coverage validity for a minimum of 365 days from the date of visit.
