For parents and grandparents applying for a super visa to Canada, medical insurance is a non-negotiable requirement. But how much does super visa medical insurance cost in Canada? Let’s break it down.

What is the Super Visa?

Unlike a standard visitor visa that allows only a 6-month stay, the super visa permits parents and grandparents of Canadian citizens or permanent residents to stay in Canada for up to five years at a time. It’s valid for up to 10 years and offers a flexible, long-term solution for family visits.

Medical Insurance Requirements:

To be eligible, applicants must purchase medical insurance from a Canadian insurance provider. This policy must provide at least $100,000 in coverage for a minimum of one year and include healthcare, hospitalization, and repatriation benefits. The insurance must be paid in full or have a deposit with monthly payments, quotes aren’t accepted.

Insurance Plan Options and Pricing:

Insurance providers typically offer two types of plans to meet super visa requirements.

The Essential Plan is cost-effective and provides basic emergency medical coverage. It's suitable for those who don’t need extended benefits like coverage for pre-existing conditions.

The Premier Plan includes upgraded benefits, including some coverage for pre-existing conditions, offering greater peace of mind for higher-risk individuals.

Final Thoughts:

While costs can vary based on age, health, and coverage duration, flexible monthly payment options make super visa medical insurance more accessible. Make sure to review the policy wording carefully to understand exclusions and benefits. Travelance’s Visitors to Canada Emergency Medical Insurance plans are tailored to meet super visa requirements.
