What’s the difference between Visitor’s Insurance and Super Visa Insurance?

Looking forward to meet your parents or grandparents by applying for a visa but you are confused whether you should opt for a visitor visa or super visa! The information given below about basic differences and benefits will clear your doubts.

The Canadian government allows anyone eligible for “Visitors’ to Canada program” to visit the country for 6 months. Those who wish to stay longer have to apply for an extension, paying a new fee, every six months. The Visitor’s insurance program provides you with coverage for any health or medical emergency that you may face within the 6 month period during the visit.

With the Super Visa Insurance program, eligible family members will pay fewer fees and have some assurance that they will be able to visit their families in Canada for a longer period (up to 10 years). The government issues the visas normally within eight weeks of the application. The Super Visa insurance program covers the visitor during complete period of their visit. It includes any medical expenses incurred during their stay in Canada.
