You will have to somehow prove that you do not have the financial means to support yourself in Canada. If you have filed for bankruptcy, you can submit proof that you have done so. Other than that, I will not be of much help.

Hi there, i had a followup question.
My parents have been paying my international tuition by far. I've completed 2 out of 4 years of my studies.
Now they cannot afford it because they don't make enough money. (but they aren't' bankrupt).

Is there a way to prove that I cannot afford my tuition anymore?
What are other ways to prove that I cannot afford my tuition?

If you can’t afford your studies you should be deferring until you have more money. You shouldn’t be coming to Canada hoping that you will be able to depend on a program for destitute students.

But if I am deferring, am I able to maintain my visa status? I think study permit will be cancelled in 90 days if I'm not attending classes.. what is the best way?

Yes. Am I able to work fulltime during defer period? What would be the maximum period i can defer?

No you can’t work full-time In Canada if you defer. Based on your previous you haven’t started studying yet. Are you in Canada? What is your status? Deferral period is up to the school.

This program is not something that you should be counting on. It is not something that is commonly approved. Things like an economic crash or war in your home country that was not predictable when you came to Canada leads to approval. Not arriving with sufficient funds or depending on being able to be able to work 20 hour/week is not a reason to try and access the destitute student program.
