    ECA Report

    Hello When I submitted my PR application under the Express Entry stream, I did not include a copy of my ECA report. I wonder if it is required to be uploaded under the supporting documents section or if the WES reference number provided is good enough. Anyone experience this before? TIA

    University of New Brunswick

    NB has a student connection stream part of the provincial nomination program of the province where you can apply after graduating from at least a 1-year program like in UNB within the province. So you have a better chance of getting a PR in NB. I am not sure about the other provinces' schemes...

    Re-entry to Canada

    My other visa is a multiple entry V-1 visa, which expires in 2029. I applied for it way back in 2020, prior to the pandemic, and then it was approved after more than a year after getting the student visa approval.

    Re-entry to Canada

    I got a student permit extension last year and am thinking of flying out of Canada for a vacation. Since my student visa (TRV) is no longer valid, I wonder if I can use my other visa, which is a tourist visa, just to re-enter Canada. Any thoughts, guys?

    Changing dli after visa before landing to canada

    Welcome. Just apply for student permit extension before your existing student permit expires. If there's a co-op or practicum included for your 2-year program apply also for a work permit. You can find the procedure in IRCC website for detailed guidelines.

    Changing dli after visa before landing to canada

    You're not changing DLI just the program within the same DLI so you don't need to inform IRCC as per the IRCC guidelines. But it is best to change it inside Canada from what I know.
