How does buying work from Ajax or Pickering?

The purchase is online and takes about ten minutes: enter the parent’s date of birth, planned entry date and health answers, compare live prices, pay annually or by deposit and instalments, and download a certificate naming the underwriter. IRCC accepts the certificate, not a quote.

The IRCC rules require at least $100,000 per applicant covering health care, hospitalisation and repatriation, valid one year from entry, from a Canadian insurer or a foreign insurer on OSFI’s register. No Indian, Sri Lankan, Pakistani or Filipino domestic insurer qualifies. Read the full guide at super visa insurance.
