Moving parents to Canada??
So, I've been in Canada for 14 Years now and my parents back home are 84 and 85 years old, with some health issues.
They've outlived most of their friends, relatives and support over there and I'd like for them to be here for me to look after. Is it possible for them to come over here and live with me in their "December Years", given that they have preexisting conditions and their age? I'm not sure regarding NHS \ Canadian Health Services \ Health Insurance side of things. Thanks for any input! Kenny |

Given their ages I would definitely be looking at the Parent/Grandparent Super Visa as found in the below link

Re: Moving parents to Canada??
I brought my parents over on the Supervisa and the medical insurance is pricey. After several attempts to get through the Parent & Grand Parent PR Stream we got through and its taken till June of 2021 for them to get COPR. Now trying to figure out to do the final steps as they can not flag pole and the Vancouver office arent doing in person PR appointments.

One might be forgiven for thinking that it's about time the Vancouver office started processing people in person again. I wonder if the recent announcement regarding the opening of the US border will permit flag-poling soon too.
Speaking as a 70 something year old parent who arrived last year, and as one that has lived in all four corners of the globe, this has been the hardest move we have made so for someone well into their 80's, it might be very hard. It's not that things are so different, it's trying to find out how to do it and then remembering how it was done when it pops up again! |

IMO the problem with bringing the elderly on the SV, is that it is only for 10 years and needs renewing every 2 years. It is not a definite route to PR. |
