How will I know if I was invited to apply to sponsor my parents and grandparents?

If you’re invited to apply, we’ll send you an email to let you know.

We’ll also post the status of those who have been invited to apply on our website on May 31, 2024. Everyone who successfully submits an interest to sponsor form gets a confirmation number. You’ll be able to look up your confirmation number to find out if you’re invited to apply.

If you aren’t invited to apply

If you’d like your parents and grandparents to come to Canada, they may be eligible to apply for a super visa, which lets them

• stay in Canada for 5 years at a time
• apply to extend their stay while they’re still in Canada by up to 2 years at a time
