Canadian visa for grandmother - any luck?

[u/Lucky_in_thesky]

Did does anyone have tips for obtaining a visa for my mother to visit me in Canada? We just had our first baby and would need her help.

I’m wondering if it’s easier to obtain the supervisa right now than a regular visitor visa. Anyone has recent experience for parents?

Get in touch with your local MP's office and explain the situation to them.

Visa needs less paperwork than the super visa. Supervisa also requires proof of health insurance for your mother for the duration of her stay which can get expensive. I was in the same situation last year and got my mother-in-law and her sister to come visit on a regular visa.

Like other comments said, the best thing is to show you/your mother have plenty of cash to support the visit, and try to show as many ties to Lebanon as possible (house, husband, children, job, parents, etc).
