Hi,

I am new to this forum and I was wondering if someone here knows if there is a maximum age for student visa to be issued?

Thank you all for your replies.

Actually I was thinking of doing an Accounting Diploma since I am unable to afford the fees for Masters programmes. The ones at Mount Royal and College of North Atlantic seem to be within my budget. But I am not sure if I will get approved for visa.

Many students here who had applied for study permit for accounting diploma have been rejected because the course is available in their native country. Check these things before you go further

Is it for which program? I am presently 41 years doing a post graduate program. So there is no age limit. Just make sure you meet the visa requirements.
Hi, I'm really encouraged by your message. i'm 27 years and now I'll be pursuing masters degree from Spetember and then PhD after two years. I'm thinking of stopping after the masters degree, because I willl be 30 years by then. Can you please advice me? I'm really worried that doing a PhD for another 4-5 years means I will be 35 years upon completion (without any meaningful working experience, apart from studying).

Good evening,



When I gathered my documents to apply for study permit , I saw only one time uploading, only one file allowed to be uploaded.



I want to upload several documents within one item lke proof of funds.



How to do that online?



And if not applicable , shall I apply by paper.?



What is consuming more time, paper or online to be processed?

Please advise.

Thank you in advance,

Hello All,

I have benefited immensely from this website/ forum and I now I want to share my experience so others can learn/ benefit from it.
I applied for Student visa on 1 Jan 2018 and got approval on 7 March 2018 - more than 2 months delay !!
  • My profile : Age 34, B.E (2005), Masters in Finance management (2017), 10 yrs professional experience with total 2 year gaps from work.
  • I got admitted for my second masters program from a reputed university in Canada which I think complements my earlier education and experience.
  • Scores :- IELTS (GT) - 8.0 band, TOEFL ibt - 108/120, GRE score 324/340 (Q - 164, V - 160, AWA - 4.0)
  • I am a married guy. Have kids too.
  • I applied via online and it got processed at Bangalore office since I applied from Mumbai. I didnt know offline/VFS applications are faster as its counter-intuitive.
  • Offline/VFS applications seem to be faster.
  • Bangalore office processing seems to be much longer than north Indian ones. So people from western and southern India should keep that in mind.
  • During the online application , I went strictly by the application guidelines and checklist. I didnt send a cover letter explaining why I should be granted visa, nor any educational documents.
  • I had a US b1 visa but I havent been to US or Canada. I think having a US visa was favorable.
  • My financial condition was quite strong so that was never an issue.
  • My guess is travel history to north america can be favorable. I think its a good idea to make a short trip to North America.
  • 5 weeks after the application I started to write emails and raise queries using the official channels to enquire about my visa application. I also applied for GCMS notes. I guess that helped in processing my 'stalled' application. Cant say for sure.
Moral of the story
  • Age probably is not a big factor in granting student visa. As long you are a bonafide student, age should not matter.
  • English skills and previous education/ work history are likely important apart from financial condition.
  • Your Canadian school's reputation is also likely important.
This was just my experience and my understanding from it. Each case is different.

If you guys have any queries, I'll be happy to answer.

Best of Luck!!

Congrats!

Did you apply for your wife's visa too? TRV or OWP?

Do you have any advice for me? I also have the profile similar to yours. 35yrs - BTech CS, 3yr experience in IT companies, then 8 years self-employed (website publishing, ITR filed). IELTS 8 but I have not appeared for GRE as I thought it is optional for Canadian universities and I hate to mug up so many vocab words (Now I'm thinking I made a mistake by trusting Canadian university's "GRE not required" criteria). I have applied to all universities offering Data Science related programs, 3-4 are safe in it. No travel history :|. Funds will not be an issue and also have my own house in Delhi (joint property me & wife). Have a 2-year-old kid.
