Hi Seniors,
Apologies for the repeated question. I did come across similar questions but read multiple contradicting answers/solutions. So I'm trying my luck again.
I am planning to invite my father to Canada to spend time with me and my family for a month or two (max). However, I don't want to apply for a normal visit visa due to the following reason:
My father is retired and has zero savings (yes, its quite strange but given his personality, it is what it is
). He does own a property worth 250,000 CAD though. It is challenging to show strong ties to his home country. Hence, the reluctance to apply for a normal visit visa (TRV).
As such, I am planning to apply for a Super Visa. I have adequate savings and a stable income more than sufficient to support him during his visit. My questions are:
1. What are the implications if I state that he will visit us for more than 6 months in my Super Visa application and actually leave the country in 2 months?
2. What are the implications if I state that he's visiting for only 2 months in my Super Visa application - will they automatically just give him a TRV or will they reject his whole application and ask to apply for a TRV?
I would be very much obliged if someone can advice on how best I can approach this situation.
Some background info (not sure if it helps or makes any difference)

- I am a Canadian Citizen and my father's main purpose of visit is to spend time with my new born son
- My parents are separated and my mother already has a TRV approved which I applied in January
