FAQ's

Answers to all Questions

What is a study permit and why do I need one to study in Canada?

A study permit is an official document issued by the Canadian government that allows foreign nationals to study at designated learning institutions (DLIs) in Canada. You need a study permit if you plan to study in Canada for more than six months. It serves as your authorization to remain in the country as a student and also allows you to work part-time during your studies.

What are the requirements for obtaining a study permit in Canada?

To obtain a study permit, you need an acceptance letter from a designated learning institution, proof of sufficient funds to cover tuition fees and living expenses, a valid passport, and sometimes a medical exam and police certificate. Additionally, you must prove that you intend to leave Canada after your studies are complete.

Can I work while holding a study permit in Canada?

A: Yes, as an international student with a study permit, you can work part time as designated by the IRCC during regular academic sessions and full-time during scheduled breaks, such as winter and summer holidays. This allows you to gain valuable work experience and help support your studies financially.

How do I extend my study permit if my program takes longer than expected?

To extend your study permit, you must apply at least 30 days before your current permit expires. You will need to provide proof of your continued enrollment at a designated learning institution, evidence of your academic progress, and proof of sufficient funds.

Can I apply for a study permit from within Canada?

Yes, you can apply for a study permit from within Canada, if you are a current student in Canada looking to change institution, if you are a temporary resident with a valid status, such as a visitor or a work permit holder, or if you are the family member of a foreign representative.

What should I do if my study permit application is refused?

If your study permit application is refused, you will receive a letter explaining the reasons for the refusal. You can address the issues outlined in the refusal letter and reapply, or you can request a review of the decision if you believe there was a mistake. It’s essential to carefully review the reasons for refusal and ensure all requirements are met in your subsequent application.

How long does it take to process a study permit application?

Processing times for study permit applications vary depending on the country from which you are applying and the time of year. On average, it can take several weeks to a few months. It is advisable to apply as early as possible to ensure you receive your permit before your program starts.

What happens if my study permit expires before I can renew it?

If your study permit expires before you apply for an extension, you will lose your status as a student in Canada. To restore your status, you must apply for a restoration of status within 90 days of losing your status. During this period, you must stop studying and working until your status is restored and a new permit is issued.
