Hi,i'm 16 half Thai-German and currently live in Thailand. My sister has been living in Vancouver Canada for most of her life as a Canadian Citizenship. I am planning to start high school there in grade 10. Since I have a German passport and don't need a visa into Canada,can I enter Canada as a visitor and make a student permit within Canada.

are you sure ? I think you can do it from canada ..
you can apply for change of visa status after going to any country and this is only a student visa application, shouldnt be a problem..

Siblings usually can't sponsor each other.
You'll have to give more details for us to comment further. Where does the sponsoring sibling live (which province)? Does the sponsoring sibling have a spouse or children? Are their parents still alive?
My sister lives in Tsawwassen British Columbia,she has three children and they are all older than 18. She's my half sister but we both share the same father. Although I've contacted the embassy and they said that I should make a student permit first so I can study there, then when i'm in Canada,I should make a PR citizenship or something between those lines for my sister to sponsor me. So talking about the student permit, does it take less time to do it online then letting vfs to do it for me, in this case vfs only accepts hard copy. They also said it will takes around 3 months for a student permit to be done with them. Thank you for your responses and help
