Can I travel to Canada if I have a valid study permit, but my studies are finished

[Prabh9113]

Hi guys, I have a valid study permit till 2025 as I was enrolled in an advanced diploma of three years but after coming to Canada, I change the program to two years and finished it early in April 2024. I have an emergency back home now, and I want to travel to India, can i travel to India and come back without any difficulties ?

A study permit doesn’t allow entry and it is no longer valid 90 days after course completion. You need a TRV to re-enter.

But what if I come back before 90 days of getting the completion letter from my college?

Do you have a valid TRV to re-enter Canada? A study permit allows you to study, not enter Canada.

But I am leaving in two days. I don’t think I have a TRV. Can I get it from India?

Yes, it could take months so be prepared. You need a valid TRV to re-enter.
