Super Visa Eligibility Calculator

Check whether a parent or grandparent appears to meet the main Super Visa screening requirements.

Host & Applicant Basics

Is the applicant the parent or grandparent of the host?

Is the host at least 18 years old?

Host's status in Canada

Does the host live in Canada?

Will the applicant submit the Super Visa application from outside Canada?

Will the host provide a signed invitation letter with financial-support promise and family-size details?

Family Size & Minimum Income

The host is counted automatically as 1 person. Add everyone else IRCC requires in the family-size calculation.

Super Visa applicants being supported

Host's spouse/common-law partner

Dependent children of host/spouse

Previously approved Super Visa invitees still covered by an applicable invitation

Other people still counted under active sponsorship undertakings

Other family members that IRCC requires you to count

Count dependent children regardless of custody arrangements where IRCC's dependent-child definition applies. Active invitation/sponsorship obligations may also need to be counted even if those people are not currently in Canada.

Income Test

Will the host use a spouse/common-law co-signer?

Only the host's spouse/common-law partner can co-sign the invitation letter. Other family members cannot.

Does the co-signer meet the required Canadian status, age and residence conditions?

Option 1 — Either of 2 Tax Years

Enter the host + eligible co-signer total income for each of the two tax years immediately before the application. Meeting the required amount in either year can satisfy this income route.

Most recent tax year income

Second-most-recent tax year income

Enter income to check Option 1.

Option 2 — 75% + Applicant Income

The host + eligible co-signer must first have at least 75% of the required amount for the most recent year. Applicant income may then be added to reach the full minimum.

Host + eligible co-signer income for the most recent year

Qualifying applicant income available for the 12-month period

Enter income to check Option 2.

Applicant income under Option 2: IRCC requires evidence of the applicant's qualifying income and proof that the income will continue while the applicant is in Canada. The supporting document must identify the currency.

Insurance, Medical & Visitor Requirements

Private health insurance source

Policy valid for at least 1 year from date of entry?

At least $100,000 emergency coverage?

Covers health care, hospitalization and repatriation?

Policy paid in full or through accepted instalments with a deposit (not merely a quote)?

Immigration medical exam by an approved panel physician?

Can applicant prove relationship to the host?

Applicant expects to meet normal temporary-resident/admissibility requirements?

The Super Visa is still a temporary-resident application. IRCC may consider the applicant's purpose of visit, ties, family and finances, and whether the applicant will leave Canada at the end of the authorized stay.
