Supervisa renewal/extension question

[complicated research]

hi all,

I need some advice and clarification.

My mother’s supervisa was approved in June 2019. It’s valid until April 2025. She came to Canada in July 2022 and has been here since then. She will leave Canada for a month (May 31-June 30, 2024). Since her super visa was approved in 2019, she is allowed to stay for 2 years at a time, right? There is no exit date stamp on her passport.

She plans to return and stay with me until the end of this Summer, so shall I apply for an extension now before she leaves or after she returns?

I would appreciate some input in this matter.

TIA!

Extensions are only good as long as a person remains in Canada. Once a person leaves Canada, this cancels the extension.

If she has spent 2 years in Canada she should be planning on spending much more than a month abroad. She is not able to move to Canada on a supervisa and is a visitors so she should be spending some significant time in her home country to reestablish her ties before considering coming to visit Canada for another extended visit. If it appears as though she is attempting to live in Canada and is only visiting her home country she could be denied entry or given a limited stay in Canada. She also could be asked to show she still has ties to her home country like a home to ensure she is not attempting to live in Canada and has a home to return to.
