Converting Visitor visa to Supervisa

[Naturgrl]

Hello there, didn't you say that you were going to apply within Canada for a SuperVisa? did you do that? my mom is under a visitor's visa and I want her to stay longer. Can you comment on that?

Supervisa is applied for outside Canada.

Hello ,
I have a question I have applied for my mother's supervisa and got approved. Just received the passport back and it says V1 not PG1 ? Does that mean she is granted with visitor visa ?
Please help

Yes. It is at their discretion and decision whether she is granted a supervisa.

Hello there,
My mother is on a visitor visa in Canada and when I applied for her supervisa she was in India. Now she got approval on supervisa and I am planning to courier her passport to Visa office in India. I am very confused here so can she stay in Canada now for 2 years as initially she came here on visitor visa and was granted 6 months stay.
Is someone in the same boat?

Exact same situation. But I sent passport to Ottawa and not India. Searching for answers if my mom can stay for longer or have to re enter .

Hello guys,
Today I received a letter stating that CIC has not received my mother's medical as requested on January 13,2022 but she has already completed her medical on January 08,2022. I have sent them the webforms with the UMI sheets. Please guide what should I do in this scenario?
Thank you

You already did it submit a web form with proof that she did her medical. There is a backlog in processing Medicals so it's likely stuck in the backlog

Yes

Can you please share your experience? Did you send a web form or just sent the passport to Ottawa office?

Send a webform indicating that your mother is currently in Canada and you’d like stamping in Canada.

You can’t apply for a supervisa while in Canada but if approved you can ask for stamping to be done in Canada. To initiate the supervisa you have to leave Canada and reenter.

Send a webform indicating that your mother is currently in Canada and you’d like stamping in Canada.

I've already done it but received no reply. It seems IRCC agents reply within 1.5-2 months now.
I'll just send the passport and see what happens
