Super Visa Eligibility Calculator

Check the key Super Visa requirements, automatically calculate family size and minimum income, and see whether the current income rules can be met through either of IRCC's two income options.

MAR 31
2026

Current income rules: a host can qualify by meeting the required income in either of the two tax years before applying. Alternatively, if the host/co-signer reaches at least 75% of the required amount in the most recent year, qualifying income of the visiting parent/grandparent may be added to cover the remaining amount.

Host & Applicant Basics

Family Size & Minimum Income

The host is counted automatically as 1 person. Add everyone else IRCC requires in the family-size calculation.

Count dependent children regardless of custody arrangements where IRCC's dependent-child definition applies. Active invitation/sponsorship obligations may also need to be counted even if those people are not currently in Canada.

Income Test

Only the host's spouse/common-law partner can co-sign the invitation letter. Other family members cannot.

Option 1 — Either of 2 Tax Years

Enter the host + eligible co-signer total income for each of the two tax years immediately before the application. Meeting the required amount in either year can satisfy this income route.

Enter income to check Option 1.

Option 2 — 75% + Applicant Income

The host + eligible co-signer must first have at least 75% of the required amount for the most recent year. Applicant income may then be added to reach the full minimum.

Enter income to check Option 2.
Applicant income under Option 2: IRCC requires evidence of the applicant's qualifying income and proof that the income will continue while the applicant is in Canada. The supporting document must identify the currency.

Insurance, Medical & Visitor Requirements

The Super Visa is still a temporary-resident application. IRCC may consider the applicant's purpose of visit, ties, family and finances, and whether the applicant will leave Canada at the end of the authorized stay.
