There are a few differences in the application for a regular Temporary Resident Visa and the SUper Visa.
For a Super Visa, the applicant needs to have insurance that is valid for at least one year. The insurance must have at least CAD 100,000 in coverage.
In addition to that, the household of the inviting child / grandchild must meet the Minimum Necessary Income requirements. To prove that, the following documents can be used:
- Notice of Assessment or T4 for the previous tax year
- employment letter stating your hiring date and salary
- bank statements
- pay stubs
- Employment Insurance stubs.
Just like with a regular Temporary Resident Visa (TRV), the immigration officer will consider whether you are a bona fide applicant, meaning how true are your intentions to come back home after 2 years.
In considering that, the officer will look at:
- the purpose of your visit
- your ties to the home country
- your family composition and finance
- the overall situation (economic and political) in your country of origin.
The officer
MAY also ask for a medical exam and police certificates.
