Hi,

My parents had a visitor visa earlier and it expired now as it was tied to their passport validity. I am planing to apply for supervisa this time. I’m confused on whether to use old ircc portal or new? I started filling in the new portal however the questionnaire in IRCC website says I’m not eligible for new portal as I have previously used their service for visitor visa. In the old portal (GC key based), it says either visitor visa below 6 months or over 6 months - is the over 6 months automatically considered as supervisa? Please help.

Over 6 months is supervisa.
