Who the Super Visa is designed for
The Super Visa is a visitor option for eligible parents and grandparents of adult hosts in Canada. It can permit stays of up to five years per entry and multiple entries during the visa’s validity, subject to government decisions. It is not a permanent-residence sponsorship approval.
The insurance eligibility checklist
- At least CAD $100,000 emergency medical insurance.
- A policy valid for a minimum of one year from the date of entry.
- Benefits for health care, hospitalization and repatriation.
- A policy from an eligible Canadian insurer or qualifying foreign insurer under current rules.
- An issued policy paid in full or in instalments with a deposit; quotations alone are insufficient.
- The policy must be valid for each entry into Canada.
What insurance normally helps with
Qualifying policies are designed for eligible sudden or unforeseen medical emergencies, subject to contract definitions. Hospitalization, physician services, eligible emergency tests, emergency prescriptions, ambulance transport and repatriation may be covered. Routine health care, preventive services and unstable medical conditions can be excluded or limited.
Single parent or couple policy?
A single-parent quote starts at our single coverage page, while couple coverage compares insurance for both parents. Check whether each person has individual limits and deductibles. Do not assume combining their applications means joint medical protection.

The issued insurer paperwork is authoritative. Read the full schedule of benefits, eligibility wording, any exclusions, the deductible, payment agreement and refund procedure. Compare price only after the plans fit the parent’s needs.
