    Study Permit

    If you don’t want to stay in Canada permanently or don’t qualify for Canada PR before your Working Holiday Visa expires, you may want to look at additional temporary options. If you want to study in Canada after your working holiday, a fantastic way to extend your time in Canada is through gaining a Canada study permit.

    Canada has some of the highest quality education in the world and numerous fantastic programs and schools for international students. For a better idea of what to expect from Canada’s education system, have a look at this article.

    The process of gaining a study permit is relatively simple but has a number of steps you cannot skip. They are as follows:

     



     

    Step 1: Get Accepted to a Canadian University

     Before you might apply for a review grant, you should be acknowledged by a Canadian Designated Learning Institution (DLI). A DLI is an instructive organization assigned by the Canadian government to concede global understudies. The most ideal way to do this is by reaching your preferred college or school straightforwardly and apply in light of their models. Assuming that you're acknowledged, you might begin your cycle.

    Step 2: Apply for a Canada Study Permit

    You can apply for your study permit online via the Canadian government website or via paper. Applying online, however, is far quicker and easier. The documents you will need to enclose with your application are as follows:

    • an acceptance letter from a Designated Learning Institution (DLI)
    • a valid passport or travel document
    • proof you can financially support yourself while in Canada

    Depending on which country you’re from, and which university you’re applying to, you may also need to include:

    • a letter of explanation
    • a certificat d’acceptation du Québec (CAQ)
    • a custodian declaration

    It’s vital to ensure that you include everything you need as any missing documentation can cause significant delays in the processing of your application.

    Step 3: Pay Processing and Biometric Fees

    As with any visa or permit, there are several fees you must pay for your application to be accepted. They are as follows: 

     

    Fees $CAN
    Study permit (including extensions) – per person 150

    Restore your status as a student

    Restore your status ($200) and a get a new study permit ($150)

     

    350

    On top of this, depending on which country you’re applying from, you may also have to submit your biometrics (fingerprints and photograph) to get your Canada study permit. The fees for these are as follows:

     

    Fees $CAN
    Biometrics – per person 85

    Biometrics – per family (2 or more people)

    Maximum fee for a family of 2 or more people applying at the same time and place

    170

    Biometrics – per group (3 or more performing artists)

    Maximum fee for a group of 3 or more performing artists applying at the same time and place

    255


    Step 4: Do your medical exams & police clearance

    To prove you’re in physical good health to continue your stay in Canada, you will need to get a full medical exam by a panel certified physician. You will also need to have a police background check to ensure you haven’t been involved in significant criminal activity.

    Step 5: Wait for your application results

    Once your application is submitted, the only thing left to do is wait. The general waiting time for a Canada Study permit is around 16 weeks.

     

     

    Work Permit

    If you don’t want to study but still want to continue to live and work in Canada, a Canada work permit may be the way for you. While applying is a relatively simple process, it does have very specific requirements that you must fulfill. The process can be broken down into three primary steps:


    Step 1: Choose your Canada Work Permit

    There are two types of work permits. They are as follows:

    Open Work Permit

    You will be able to work for any employer in Canada and will not have to prove that your employer had to pick you over local applicants via a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA).


    Closed or Employer-specific Work Permit

    You are allowed to work as a foreign national but you have to work for a specific employer, under specific conditions and for a specified time. These are far easier to get but do require a job offer from a said Canadian employer.

    Only certain applicants will be allowed to work with an open work permit, whereas most people with a Canadian job offer will most likely be able to gain a closed work permit. To ensure you can get a work permit, you must do the following, which leads us into step two.


    Step 2: Check your eligibility

    To be eligible for a Canada work permit you must do the following:

    1. Prove you’ll leave Canada once your work permit expires;
    2. Show you can financially support both yourself and any family members while in Canada and to return home;
    3. Obey the law and have no criminal record (as shown via a police clearance certificate);
    4. Not be a danger to Canada’s security;
    5. Be in good health (as shown via a medical exam)
    6. Not plan to work for an employer on the list of employers who failed to comply with the conditions;
    7. Never plan to work for a company that regularly offers striptease, erotic dance, escort services, or erotic massages.

    Step 3: Submit the Application

    If you fulfill all of the above criteria, your work permit application can be submitted on the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) website.

    Depending on which country you’re from, you may have to submit additional documents which will be specified by the IRCC.
