Super Visa or Simple visit visa?

[mani1234]

I am planning to invite my parents for 3 months only to Canada from Pakistan. I am PR and meet all requirements for Super Visa. But since my parents want to come for 3 months only. So should I apply for Super Visa or Simple visit visa?

My concern is rejection rate is higher for simple visit visa but it makes more sense to apply for this because they are coming for just 3 months. Whereas Super Visa has lower rejection rate but I have to buy 1-year insurance and 2 years visa will be wasted as they will come for 3 months only and super visa has a limited time of 10 years.

Does anyone have recent experience of applying for simple visit visa instead of super visa? what is your advice what should I do?

rejection rate is higher for simple visit visa

Huh, if ever that is true (and it most likely is), it's only because a common TRV applies to every visitor, whereas a super visa only applies to a qualified and specific group of applicants. Of course the rejection rate is higher: there are more applicants.

Simply put, it's easier to apply for a plain TRV because there are fewer requirements. You are right, no need to get insurance.

If you think you can qualify for a super visa anyway with a proper application, I don't see a reason why your parents would be denied a plain TRV.
