Hello and Welcome to JustAnswer. My name is***** will be working on your question today and I am looking forward to our conversation.

Please note that I am working from my computer and not actually texting. If you don’t answer back for a while I may not be online when you do but I will never desert you and will check back often. As well, as I am working from home it is possible that I will be interrupted but I will always return back as soon as I can.

Finally, although the site offers a call option I personally do not take calls but just work online. Some find this confusing as it looks like the offer is coming from me but that is just how the site presents the offer and it really isn’t coming from me. Some of the other experts do take calls and so you are very welcome to request a call on this post and an expert may take it. They will have the benefit of reading our exchange which should work out very well for everyone involved!

I know your question is important to you and I will be giving it the time and attention it deserves.

I am sorry to hear of this difficult situation.

Here is a link to the information that you will need:

Your son-in-law is going to have to show strong ties to back home. This can include a job, a home, assets, family, ties to the community etc.

Does that help as a starting point?

Yes if you are paying all his expenses and can show that you can this will work.

After he enters they can apply for spousal sponsorship from inside of Canada.

Yes you do.

The medical coverage is for the supervisa but he sure better have private insurance.

It will take over on

No private insurance secured at home.  No you don't have to buy the plane ticket before the application is put in because that would be too risky in case it

Well if he ends up in the hospital the costs will be astronomical. So it would be exceedingly negligent and in fact reckless to enter Canada without proper private health insurance.

Yes. He needs travel insurance for medical coverage, just like if you were going to go to the US you would make sure you had private health coverage in case you got sick there.

You are very welcome. You absolutely will be able to connect with me again.

6 to 8 months is very long and they rarely would allow you in for more than six months. I think you should put in a reasonable length of time.

It is for one visit so why don't you put something like two months and certainly not more than six.
