Hello All,

It seems like everyone is getting their app approved. Congrats!!! I'm thinking to apply for my mother's super visa in next 6 months time. Can anybody help with the following questions? Thanks

1. I believe that income threshold is in gross income and not the net income. Right?
2. NOA is necessary or other docs can also be submitted for proof of income?
3. Where to get the medical insurance and for how long and how much does it cost on average?
4. Current processing times are around 3 months it seems?
5, Any other suggestions that you guys have which can help speed up the process and increase the chances of getting the visa?

Thank you in advance.
No one willing to help?

Hello All,

It seems like everyone is getting their app approved. Congrats!!! I'm thinking to apply for my mother's super visa in next 6 months time. Can anybody help with the following questions? Thanks

1. I believe that income threshold is in gross income and not the net income. Right? That's right. It's the income before taxes.
2. NOA is necessary or other docs can also be submitted for proof of income? Better to submit the NOA from CRA. The NOAs for the past three years can be obtained online from myCRA portal or by requesting from CRA over the phone.
3. Where to get the medical insurance and for how long and how much does it cost on average? There are multiple SV insurance providers who provide the supervisa insurance in Canada. SV insurance has to be valid for at least a year as per the IRCC requirement. Cost depends upon your parents pre-existing conditions and the amount of deductible that you chose on the policy. If no pre-existing exists, the cost of insurance for a year is around CAD 900 - 1100.
4. Current processing times are around 3 months it seems? Seems like Yes. I submitted my mothers SV application on Sept 6th. Here background checks are still in progress.
5, Any other suggestions that you guys have which can help speed up the process and increase the chances of getting the visa? Send the complete application duly completed and checked. Do the upfront medicals to save a little bit of time. Check the application filling guide on the CIC website.

Thank you in advance.

Hello,
Answers to your questions are in RED.
Hope this helps.

Hi,

I am planning to invite my father to stay two months in 2019 with me. I am eligible to apply for the super visa. However I have a concerns:

1- He is currently working in Pakistan and working.

Considering his job in Pak and staying with me for two months only, Should I apply for SV or regular visit visa?

Thanks.

Best,
Sohaib

We got Passport request for my father's super visa, my father lives in a city closer to Faisalabad, what are his options to send passport to Canadian embassy Islamabad? Is there any VFS/VAC center in Faisalabad, can he send his passport through regular courier service( ICS, OCS or TCS?) with return service?

You need to submit the passport through VFS.
VFS Global offices are in Khi, Lahore and ISD only.

biometric is expired what we need to do?
How do you know biometrics are expired? Usually these are good for 10 years (at least for my parents).

If immigration officer / visa office has told you about the biometrics been expired, then you need to go to the VFS global office to redo the biometrics.
HTH.
