Are you planning to visit Canada to meet your children and grandchildren but are unable to do so? With a Super Visa, you can enter Canada, if you meet all the eligibility criteria. The good news for all Super Visa holders is that you can stay with your near and dear ones for up to 5 years at a time. But, what’s wrong with a Visitor Visa? Won’t you be allowed to stay in Canada for a long time with a Visitor Visa?
Let’s explore the basics of a Super Visa and a Visitor Visa, and how these two differ.
A Super Visa allows an individual to visit his/her children or grandchildren for about 5 years at a time. Super Visa offers multiple entries for around 10 years. Once you enter Canada, the border service officer will affirm your duration of stay in the country.
To receive a Super Visa, you need to meet all the designated criteria. Besides other definite requirements for this Visa, an individual must be eligible for medical insurance.
However, if you want to stay in Canada for 6 months or less, you can apply for a Visitor Visa.

Usually, most visitors to Canada stay for about 6 months during their first visit. Visitors willing to stay longer must apply for an extension and pay a new additional fee for the same.
Conversely, eligible parents and grandparents can visit their loved ones in Canada under the Super Visa. This will permit them to stay in Canada for a longer period.
The Super Visa is a multi-entry Visa that permits multiple entries for about 10 years in Canada. The only crucial difference is that a Super Visa allows a person to stay in Canada for up to 5 years at a time, while a multiple-entry Visa possesses a status period for each entry of 6 months only.
