Super Visa - anyone applied as yet?

[TRUONGAN]

Super visa is a joke. My mother-in-law applied for super visa. Secured it till 2018 but at the port of entry the officer only granted six months of stay. What do they expect? Us to keep renewing it paying them fees?

I assume the officer did not look closely to visa category PG1 and s/he thought it was just a regular visitor visa. Why don't you confirm with CBSA for the reason, maybe they will correct her visitor records if that was their mistake?

I am going to write a note for my mom to present to POE officer .

Can this happen that after getting visa , duration of visit can be shorten at POE

I think this would suffice and help make her entry very smooth at POE! I will tell her to give this to first examining officer right away, hopefully no question asked.


Dear POE Officer/Immigration Officer/Airlines Agent:
The person appearing before you is:
Name: xxx - DOB: xxx – Language spoken: xxx
Address in Canada: xxx
She is seeking entry to Canada as a parent holding Super Visa PG1 issued by Ho Chi Minh City Visa Office, Vietnam. As per the visa type, I hope you will be pleased to grant her 2-year stay.
*** WestJet Staff *** Please kindly help my mom transfer her checked-in luggage to final destination (Edmonton). She is not physically strong enough to pick them up from the baggage carousel. Please help direct her to the WestJet agent counter and show her the gate for domestic flight as shown on her boarding pass. I appreciate your assistance.
If you have any question, you may want to call me xxx at xxx as my mother does not speak English and this is her first time coming to Canada. Thank you

I received my T4(s) today and hopefully will be filing my tax returns using NETFILE (my friend will do it) in a few days. I guess CRA can process NOA in as early as 2 weeks and it may take another 1~2 weeks to get the paper copy of the NOA.

Can I view/printout my NOA when it's processed before getting the paper copy? As I'm flying to Bangladesh on March 17; it will be tight. If I'm able to file it within this week, there will be 3 weeks left.

If he wants to stay after 2 year just pay $75 and apply for extension with CIC Vegreville. If he wants to go back home and then come back, he needs to reapply for a new Super visa with a new passport. I don't see any problem in either case.

Assuming imran007's parents applying from VFS-New Delhi, India; I summerized the successful cases here. I was curious to know if a regular TRV processing time at a specific visa office has any impact on Super Visa processing. I would need more samples


Super Visa Regular TRV

Ho Chi Minh (Vietnam): 1 month 7 days

New Delhi (India): 2 months 7 days
