That is about 6 weeks out.
Hey good day, I booked my flight for June 27th and I was denied boarding my plane at the airport and told to come 4 weeks before my classes start, but my visa would have expired by then, do you have any suggestions on actions I could take right now?

Hey
I’ve started my study in Fall 2020, but I haven’t landed yet. Am I allowed to enter Canada on July 5th? I mean 2 months before my third semester begins.

Hey! did you end up flying early? I am in the same situation as you
You should fly 3-4 weeks in advance at most. We have seen people on this forum denied boarding by the airline when they have traveled too early.

Did the airlines tell you this? or IRCC?
Hey! I just came to Canada and the airlines make you show them your class schedules etc. At the border they just ask you to login and show them your transcripts + schedule. So I'm assuming if you're not taking a class online at the moment it MIGHT be an issue. For reference I travelled in July for September intake.
