Could my mom be allowed to re-enter Canada after 12 days? She came to visit me on May 10, 2026 and allowed to stay until November 8, 2026. She will apply for extension and stay until December 20, 2026. On that day, she will fly back to the Philippines and would like to return to Canada on January 1, 2027. She has V-1 multiple entry visa and will expire in 2030. I invited her here for an extra help of taking care of the newborn of my wife and I.

V1 doesn’t mean they can live and work here illegally.
Hire a caregiver . That should of been planned PRIOR to the birth , not as a after thought
Your mother is attempting visa shenanigans. You do know she can be refused entry and have that visa revoked , right ?
If she wants to visit for longer periods especially over 6 months she should really apply for a supervisa. No matter what she should be taking out emergency travel medical insurance unless you have hundreds of thousands in savings that you can pay out of pocket if she does end up accessing healthcare. You need to think like CBSA and IRCC. If someone left Canada and tried to reenter after less than 2 weeks after having spent many months in Canada already would they appear to be visiting their home country or visiting Canada? Especially as a regular visitor you are expected to show savings to support your visit, reason for visit and ties to your home country. Doesn’t sound like your mother is currently employed so she would be expected to show she has enough savings to support her visit, explain why she is visiting and the length of her desired visit and ties to her home country like property ownership, dependent family members (spouse and/or children under 22), etc. As already mentioned providing childcare, doing housework/cooking, etc. are considered working in Canada and she’d need a work permit to do these things. She can visit her child and grandchild. Remember that a valid TRV doesn’t ensure entry into Canada.
