What is Super Visa Insurance?
Super Visa insurance is a mandatory health insurance policy required for parents and grandparents applying for a Super Visa to Canada. Since visitors are not covered by Canada's public healthcare system, this insurance ensures that medical expenses are covered in case of illness, accidents, or emergencies.
Super Visa Insurance Requirements (as per IRCC)
To qualify for a Super Visa, the insurance policy must:
✅ Be purchased from a Canadian insurance provider
✅ Have a minimum coverage of $100,000
✅ Be valid for at least one year from the date of entry
✅ Cover healthcare, hospitalization, and repatriation
✅ Include proof of payment (quotes alone are not accepted)
