- A Canadian Study Permit is an official document issued by the Canadian immigration authorities, allowing eligible international students to pursue their studies at a Designated Learning Institutions (DLI) in Canada. In most cases, international students require a Study Permit to study in Canada if their program duration is longer than six months.
- If you intend to undertake a course or program that is six months or less in duration, you will not require one. However, you must ensure to finish the course within the time allocated for your stay. While a study permit might not be obligatory for short courses, it is advisable to get one beforehand. This is beneficial if you later choose to extend your studies. If you have not previously obtained a study permit, you will need to leave Canada and apply for one from a Canadian visa office outside of Canada.
- It is important to note that a study permit is distinct from a visa. To enter Canada, you must also obtain a Temporary Residence Visa (TRV), which will be granted once your study permit application is approved.
- With a valid study permit, you have the privilege of staying in Canada for the entire duration of your academic program, as well as an additional 90-day period. This extra time frame provides flexibility for planning your departure, extending your stay, or exploring employment opportunities within the country.
- To apply for a Study Permit in Canada, you will typically need to meet the following requirements:
- Meeting criteria doesn't guarantee a study permit; officials consider factors like ties to home country and intentions to study and leave Canada.
- Processing times vary; apply early as it can take from weeks to months, depending on the country of application.
The student generally needs to prove that they have enough funds to cover the tuition fees for the first year of the study program in addition to the living expenses, where the amount required is not less than CAD21,000.
- A Designated Learning Institution (DLI) in Canada is approved by provincial or territorial governments to enroll international students and offer programs eligible for study permits.
- International students need an acceptance letter from a DLI to apply for a study permit.
- DLIs include universities, colleges, technical schools, and language schools meeting government criteria.
- Not all Canadian educational institutions are DLIs; students must verify DLI status before applying.
- Use the official search tool on the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) website to find specific DLIs by name, province, or territory.
