Hi..I submitted my application online..hope this will help u..

1. Check your Eligibility https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/come-canada-tool.html
2. If you are applying for student visa, you should already have a LOA (Letter of Acceptance) from the school
3. After answering all questions, it will generate a Reference Number. Take note of that.
4. Make GCKey account https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/account.html
5. After making an account ( please take note of all the info you provided coz u will need that during log-in ) . Log -in to your account
6. Click "Apply for....." and quote your reference number
7. It will then open into your application portal where you can find all the documents that you need to fill-up and provide
8. You have 60 days to complete the application ( uploading the docs.. )
9. After all docs are uploaded, then go and pay using credit card
10. After payment, they will provide you with confirmation. Then after that, you'll have to wait for the result...

You can also interchange number 4 and 1..You can make GCKey first and check your eligibility from there...

When applying online do I need to print out my online application, sing it and later scan and upload to my account.
