What is the difference between Super Visa and visitors insurance?
Visitors insurance is for general visits to Canada. Super Visa insurance is specifically required for Super Visa applicants and must meet minimum coverage and policy requirements set by IRCC, including a minimum of $100,000 in medical coverage.
Can I pay for Super Visa insurance monthly?
Yes. IRCC accepts monthly payment plans for Super Visa insurance. Instead of paying the full annual premium upfront, you can start coverage with a smaller deposit and pay the balance in monthly installments.
What happens to my insurance if the Super Visa is refused?
If the Super Visa application is denied before your policy starts, most insurers provide a full refund of your premium when you submit the IRCC refusal letter. Some insurers charge a small administrative fee.
Does Super Visa insurance cover pre-existing conditions?
Many plans can cover pre-existing medical conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes if the condition has been stable for a defined period, usually 90 to 180 days. Coverage and stability requirements vary by insurer, so comparing plans matters.
What is a deductible and how does it work?
A deductible is the amount you pay toward eligible medical expenses before the insurer pays. Some plans offer a zero deductible option. With a deductible plan, you are responsible for costs up to the selected amount.
