    Admission in 2 degrees at once

    Right! When is the right time to apply for an extension? 90 days from the end of first program or 60 days before permit expiry? In both these scenarios, my study permit would be active.

    Admission in 2 degrees at once

    Essentially your LOI is your eTA. I am not sure how that works since it does not concern me. Best to check with the senior members ;)

    It makes sense that you have 5 years validity. You originate from a country that does not require IRCC to issue you a sticker. You travel on eTA. Your expiry date on Study Permit would certainly be different.

    Admission in 2 degrees at once

    Hi! Until now I have been assuming that the expiry date on my LOI would be the same as on the Study Permit. Since I hail from a country that requires IRCC to issue a visa sticker on my passport, the expiry date on that matches the LOI as well. So it’s all been a guess work. I will be travelling...

    Can I change my program in the same DLI from a 1 year program to a 2 year program after receiving a Canadian study visa?

    In no way will it affect the process. IRCC only needs to be informed if you are changing your DLI, not your programs.

    The institution have clearly mentioned this “arrangement” in the Letter of Acceptance. Based on which, I have been issued the visa.

    Admission in 2 degrees at once

    They have issued me my permit until 07/25 which is enough to cover both these programs. In reality, they are 1 year programs. They shouldn’t have issued me the permit for that period if I still have to extend it, right?

    Admission in 2 degrees at once

    Hi! So I have gotten admission in the same DLI for 2 different degree with a combined study period of 2 years. IRCC has issued me a visa for the same period. My LOA mentions that the study period is 2 years and about the 2 programs I am pursuing in sequence. Now the question is, do I need to...

    Can I change my program in the same DLI from a 1 year program to a 2 year program after receiving a Canadian study visa?

    Great! Apply for the refund. Have some kind of proof that university is fully funding your studies which you already may. And you are all set!

    Can I change my program in the same DLI from a 1 year program to a 2 year program after receiving a Canadian study visa?

    I personally don’t know how York University handles change in problems. Logically speaking, they should just request for the difference amount and thereby steer clear of any refunds. Again, that’s between you and your university. Keep your PG LOA and Masters LOA in-hand. When asked by the...

    What can be done to my study permit conditions to allow employment

    To be issued a sin which is a requirement to work in Canada, your study permit must have either of these conditions. If it doesn’t and you meet the requirements to work, you need to contact IRCC to get your conditions updated. What was your port of entry? May work 20 hours per week off campus...

    Police verification is an unnecessary document that you have added to your application. It’s not required.

    Study permit rejected right after biometrics

    it’s your PTE score. PTE 49 is equivalent to IELTS 5.5. Unacceptable. Either improve your PTE score or what I would recommend is to sit for IELTS, you may need to spend some time preparing for the exam but it would be worth it.

    Can I change my program in the same DLI from a 1 year program to a 2 year program after receiving a Canadian study visa?

    Informing IRCC is not required in such a case. Get your updated LOA. You can always apply to extend your study permit in Canada.

    What is the word limit for names on a student visa passport to Canada?

    Is the name in the LOI mentioned correctly? If it is, the name in IRCC System is entered correctly. You won’t face any issue.
