Purpose and circumstances
Invitation evidence, itinerary, employment, finances, travel history and family circumstances should be coherent and proportionate to the proposed visit.
The host’s role
A host can provide support and context, but an invitation does not guarantee approval. IRCC assesses the applicant’s full circumstances.
Not sure this is the right pathway?
A focused assessment reviews your complete facts before you commit time or fees.
Longer visits for parents
The Super Visa can permit extended stays for parents and grandparents who satisfy current host-income, insurance, medical and admissibility rules.

Frequently asked questions
Can a visitor work in Canada?
Visitor status does not generally authorize work. A separate work authorization may be required.
Does meeting the basic criteria guarantee approval?
No. Eligibility is only the first question. Selection, documentary sufficiency, admissibility and the decision-maker’s assessment all affect the outcome.
Can requirements change while I prepare?
Yes. Immigration programs, forms, fees and instructions change regularly. Current official requirements should be confirmed before filing.
Can Azimi Immigration assess my situation?
Yes. A consultation can identify the facts that matter, available routes, material risks and the scope of professional assistance that may be appropriate.
Does an invitation letter guarantee approval?
No. It is supporting evidence, but IRCC assesses the complete circumstances of the applicant and host.
What changed for Super Visa income in 2026?
IRCC changed how host family income can be calculated beginning March 31, 2026. The rules should be checked against the current application date.
Can I extend my stay from Canada?
Many visitors can apply for a visitor record before their status expires. Approval is discretionary.
