Minor Study Permit

[HoppieTorc]

Hi, I have a question. Does somebody experience applying for your minor sibling's study permit?

My brother is 15 and we are applying for his study permit. I have few questions.
1. Does he need to do upfront medical prior to submitting the application?
2. He will enroll in a public high school, what are the requirements for the study permit?

1. See instructions here: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/study-permit/apply.html
2. You need to find a school that is willing to accept him as an international student. You or his parents will need to demonstrate you have a bank balance of at least $25,000 to cover 1 year of tuition and living expenses. Someone who lives in Canada (assuming that's you?) will need to agree to act as his custodian.

Hi. There is already a secondary school for him. It is secondary and tuition fee is fully paid prior to submitting the application. As minor, does he need to take ielts? I will be his custodian here and papers are already notarized.

Hi, I am also in the process of applying for my sister who is a minor as well. Have you submitted your brother's application yet?

The school has to inform you about its requirements for English. Visa office does not care.
It looks like he will be assessed at school (English and Math) and judging by the results will be placed into a proper grade.

About medical exam first of all you should look at www.cic.gc.ca. If there is no clarity about minors- call Canada Immigration and ask them.

I am completing all requirement. I'm asking him to do medical first. Have you submitted yours?

 

[dtny]

No not yet. It takes a while to get a medical examination date in my country so my sister won't be doing upfront medical
