Hello, anyone who has applied or is about to apply for Compassionate entry for travellers?

My parents have visitor visas already but they don't qualify as fully vaccinated travellers, they received back home a vaccine that is not listed on the approved list of vaccines in Canada. I want to bring them over to help me with my kid who has 2 medical conditions one of them is a chronic illness. I want to apply for an exception under compassionate entry.

It would be appreciated if some can share through experiences with this program.

Thanks in advance.

They can travel to Canada but they will need to quarantine for 14 days. They need separate accommodations.

Parents are currently exempt from the vaccine requirement to enter Canada. As previously noted they will need a separate quarantine location. A basement with a bathroom is usually an option but an Airbnb is probably best if your have a medically vulnerable child.
