Super Visa - Post September 7 Applications

[BillHyatt]

Hi All,

I have created this thread to monitor the Post September 7 Super Visa applications. This will help us all review, if there is any real progress in processing times after September 7. It will also be helpful in deciding for those having doubt if they should re-apply, escalate or just keep waiting for the PPR.

Please include the following details:

- Date of Application Submitted/AOR:
- Biometric Requested:
- Biometric Submitted:
- Biometric Updated in Portal:
- Medical Requested or Date of Upfront Medicals:
- Medical Completed:
- Medical Passed:
- Additional Information (if any):
- Passport Request (PPR) Date:
- Visa Office (if known):

Thanks

Hi all,

I am confused about the re submission. I applied for my mother in law in April 2021 for super visa. So do I need to resubmit the application ? Does the super visa falls in that category which needs to be resubmitted ? Can some one clear this confusion ?

 

[Pawan R Brar]

I don’t think so. Its only for visitor visa as far as I know

Hi,

Does your portal change to "We are processing your application" after Biometrics information was updated?

Thanks

Do you have any link that we can confirm this, as super visa is a kind of super right ?

Found this on Super Visa reapplication, according to the author, who is a registered consultant with RCIC, the reapplication is only for visitor visa.

Thank you so very much. This clears up so many confusions.

Processing times are always estimates not guaranteed. They are often wrong on top of that.

33 days for super visa does not sounds correct, Most likely it is 133 days or more

We are a family of 2 - my husband and I. My mother (belongs to India) has visitor visa that expires May 2022. She is arriving Canada in October - will be her first visit.

Question:
1. Should I apply for extension or super visa? When would be best time to apply as soon as she arrives or I should wait for 2-3 months after she arrives here.
2. What minimum income is required?
3. Is it compulsory for her to have health insurance - for this visit Oct 2021?

Please advise.

Thank you.

I submitted my parents supervisa on 10th Feb,2021, but no update since biometrics on 5th Aug.

So, I've finally re-applied again on 10th Oct through new portal. This is really very confusing at the moment. Though the Supervisa applications should be considered as immediate family members re-unite, but still there is a long pending pile of Supervisa files too.

Supervisa can also apply for grandparents who are actually extended family members. Therefore, IRCC can't automatically assume whether the super visa applicant is a parent or grand parent.
