I have already applied for PR. Acknowledgement recieved in December 2019.

I have been offered admission into university and class starts in august 2020.

Can I submit a study permit now under dual intent - what should I write in SOP about this. @bellaluna request if you could address this.

Are you hoping to get PR and switch to domestic student before classes start? If so you need to talk to the school. Entrance requirements are usually different for domestic and international students.

Whatever you explained to us in your first post about your PR and admission but with more details.
Hi bellaluna, nice to see your reply. I've read your comments in other threads and found comfort.

So, in my future plans - is it okay to say that : my home country has lot of opportunities for my new post Masters domain. But, if PR is approved I will prefer working in Canada.

I just received my PGWP after my masters degree and also received a PhD offer at the same time. Can I apply for pr (under the Atlantic pilot program) and a study permit concurrently using dual intent? Classes for doctoral studies starts in Fall.

Any input or advice from members will be highly appreciated

Most of the jobs tend not to be very high skilled have you found a job? Are your PhD studies in the Maritimes and in the same location as employment offer?

Hi canuck78:

Yes, the job is not high skilled. However, I intend to apply through the Atlantic International Graduate Program instead of Atlantic High-Skilled Program.
Alao, my program is not marine. I'm into humanities.

I am asking if your study permit involves a school in the Maritime provinces.
