They need to apply to a visa office outside Canada for new super visas.

However, they don't need to apply for new super visas yet. You may want to consider applying to extend their current visitor status instead

Actually if i apply for visitor staus or visa then they can only stay for 6 months & if they want to stay more they have to apply for extension which I feel more hectic so I always choose supervisa.

So, to apply for supervisa it has to be done @ visa office outside canada only ?

Do the counterfoils on their passports state PG-1 or V1?

It shows PG-1

So Basically they have to go back home & then apply for new visa & then come back . Right ?
If it's PG-1, they can stay for up to two years. Do check if there's a handwritten date below the entry stamps in their passports. Or you could call CBSA just to be sure that they can stay for two years without going back home

I am sure they can stay for 2 yrs from date of there arrival in canada but they don't have any stamp or date on there passport. In any case I have to apply again as there visa is expiring in January.

No, they don't need to apply for a new super visa not at least for two years/if they don't plan to leave the country

Hi bryanna
If you could let me know about this situation please?? As for super visa it needs to be applied outside canada but if it could be possible to apply from other country while staying there as a visitor??
Previously you did reply me about this but i am wondering if it could b possible to apply for visitor visa in the following situation
Pls help and advice:
If a person having Pakistani citizenship and visiting Australia on visitor visa can he/she apply for Canadian visit visa from Australia as living as a temporary visitor there like anyone visiting canada on visit visa can apply for visa for USA or vice versa but can a person on visitor bisa in Australia can apply visit visa for canada so they can fly / stay directly from Australia to Canada for 6months or so then to return to Pakistan.
Thanks

Yes, someone can apply for a TRV from any country where s/he has legal immigration status including as a visitor.

That said, it is not advisable to apply from a country where the applicant is visiting because his/her ties would be weak.

IMO, the advice I gave previously would help as compared to applying when your mom is a visitor in Australia. Your mom has good chances of an approval as she already has a valid TRV. Do prepare her new application along the same lines

Hello Bryanna,

Need your help in suggesting in my current situation.

My parents are 76 & 69 years old. They are with me in Canada on Super Visa. Their Super Visa is expiring in Nov 2022 as their passports were expiring on the same date. I have got their passports renewed now & applied for their super visa renewal. They have received a visitor permit & extension till 2024, however it seems like they do not have the privilege now to go outside Canada & come back.

My intention was to receive a renewal of super visa so that they can travel back to home country whenever required for medical examination which I can not afford to have & pay for in Canada.

They can not go outside Canada & apply for new super visa as I have no one outside Canada who can take care of them till their new super visa is granted.

Need your suggestions if there are any ways we can get visitor visa or Super Visa privilege of entering Canada multiple times as & when required.

Their earlier status was PG1 on passport.

I hope there is a way to explain my situation in some way to immigration regarding this.

Your advise would be really helpful for me.

Regards,
