It is a visa that provides multiple entries within a period of up to 10 years.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Applying for a Super Visa<\/h2>\n<p>When a person applies for a Super Visa, they must submit proof of a health insurance policy that:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Is valid for a minimum of 1 year from the date of entry;<\/li>\n<li>Is paid in full or in instalments with a deposit (quotes aren\u2019t accepted);<\/li>\n<li>Covers health care, hospitalization and repatriation;<\/li>\n<li>Provides a minimum coverage of $100,000.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Our <strong>AwayCare TrueNorth Visitors plan<\/strong> is a great fit for clients needing insurance coverage for a Super Visa, as it considers all the requirements for the Super Visa application. Coverage can be purchased for up to 365 days, and the client can choose other options such as the policy maximum, deductible, and whether they would like to include coverage for pre-existing conditions. It is well understood that cost plays a major role when clients are comparing travel insurance options. All these factors will affect the final cost of the policy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Flexibility<\/h2>\n<p>Getting a Super Visa approved by immigration can be a time-consuming process. We are flexible on making date changes for your client, provided the date change is requested prior to the effective date of the policy. Though it is ultimately up to the client to notify their broker if a date change is required, we also recommend that you, as brokers, verify that the dates are still accurate prior to the effective date.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, if your client chooses to return to their home country earlier than expected, AwayCare will provide an early return refund for the unused portion of their policy. Some key considerations for early return refunds:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The client must return to their home country.<\/li>\n<li>There must have been any claims made on the policy.<\/li>\n<li>Proof of return must be submitted within 60 days of returning home.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Coverage Questions<\/h2>\n<p>Should you have any questions regarding the coverage offered in our TrueNorth Visitors plan, or how it can be used for a Super Visa application, our broker support team is available and happy to assist. We can be reached at 1-800-667-7267 or by email at brokers@awaycare.ca.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Super Visa allows a visitor to come and visit their children or grandchildren for an extended amount of time.
