It depends. Before anything, keep in mind that neither option is better than the other. Both can produce either a successful application or a failed one. Some can successfully tackle this process on their own because they have the tools, understanding, knowledge, motivation and confidence...

I have not travelled yet but i do know many people that had recently and they all say that the documents that CBSA can ask for, are any or all documents listed in the website. Nothing outside of that list. Sometimes they might ask for all of them (Proof of funds, LoA, Letter of introduction...

Although there are no rule against arriving to Canada more than the recommended 4 weeks prior of the start date of your studies, you will be questioned about it and you better have a satisfactory answer. The CBSA agent are trying to find out if you have discretionary reason (or mandatory) to be...

Normally yes. At one stage of your application (if it goes well), you will be asked to undergo some medical tests and X-ray of your chest, looking for any lung disease, specially TB, is part of those test You can find more about the process and the requirements here...

Oh yeah. Now that you put it like that, i see your point. You are right. I was focusing more on the question of is it mandatory or not to notify them?. But you are right, at the very least, for your own convenience you should notify them so they can update your study permit date accordingly so...

Well, i guess he could if he wants to, but it is not necessary at all. According to this oficial tweet from the IRCC account, they clearly state that a deferral is between the DLI and the student. It is not necessary to inform them. The only instance where a student have to inform the IRCC...

You only need to inform the IRCC if the deferral is to a date 150 days or over from the original intake. So if your original intake date was May and now is going to be September of the same year, you don't have to inform them.

Exact same scenario as me. I applied originally for the Winter 2022 intake but i was asked to undergo the sputum test so my study permit ended up being approved in February 2022. Had to request a deferral but my program was not available for the Summer intake. So no other option but to defer to...

I did some heavy research on this topic and it turns out, is not really all that confusing. Your Student TRV is valid and usable for travel from the moment it was issued to the moment it expire. That is a fact. Now, because of the current situation of the pandemic, CBSA is simply discouraging...

That person has been in school since 2015 and has not finished yet? I am assuming that by school, you mean college. But if it is college, unless that person was doing a PHD program, it seems that she did not maintained a full time student status since 2015. If that is the case, it can be...

Regarding your concerns: Q1: Certainly not. I'll be 32 soon and I applied for a post graduate diploma program and it all went well. Q2: As long as you can justify them properly in your letter of explanation, and it makes sense from a career progression perspective, i would say you have few...

How about my case? I had also planned to travel to Canada 4 months prior to the start of my classes but i had a Valid TRV and family members living in Canada so my plan was to visit them and stay with them those months and then come back to my country and re-enter Canada in August as a student...

Hello to all. I have a quick question regarding both my Temporary Resident Visa that i obtained back in 2019 and my Study Permit that i just got. I applied for my study permit in August 2021 and got it approved in February 2022. I sent my passport to the IRCC in order to have the Counterfoil...

Not really. After the second X-rays are back ok and the sputum test is negative, you should finally pass your medicals and after that, whatever is the normal time in your country to receive the PPR, that's also when you receive the Medical Surveillance form. The Medical Surveillance form...

Hello. Yes, you can still pass your medicals even if your medical center has diagnosed you with inactive or latent TB. However, you will most likely be placed under Medical Surveillance if that is the case. But no worries, MS is not really a terrible thing but is going to be an extra...

Even if i have a TRV? I know if i only have my student's visa, i can only enter a month prior of the start of the classes. But since i also have a temporary resident visa, i was hoping i can use it to enter Canada way sooner. The way i see it, i will be using my two different visas for their...

Good day to you all. I have a question regarding the possibility of traveling to Canada 6 months before the start of my classes using a TRV (Tempary resident visa). First a little summary of my case: I applied for my student visa on August 2021 with the intention of starting classes in...

"Hacking" is more social engineering that anything else. They trick you into revealing your login information. Common sense goes a long way for securing your account. Cracking is a different business but is unlikely that someone would crack the IRCC database, obtaining everybody's username and...

Well, called my clinic again and they insist they sent everything properly. In that case, could this just be because of the whole medical exams backlog situation? I just find it weird that even with that happening, there's so many people that have their medical exams processed by IRCC in a...

Good morning to all. I have a quick inquiry with the hopes someone can answer it. After 3 months, i finally received my medical exam request and as a non- SDS applicant, that is of course good news. Said request was sent to me on November 19 and i did my medicals on november 22. The very next...
