Dear all, My husband will visit me on a visiting visa along with our 2 sons. One of my sons is 17 years old. Is he still deemed minor? Do I have to make an authorization letter granting permission to my husband to accompany my son? Thanks for your help. Vicksy

Dear all, My study will be done in December 2023 and I plan to extend my study permit for my next program. My current study permit will expire on 31 March 2024. If I want to sponsor my minor child, should I apply for my study permit extension first and later for his study permit after I get my...

Okay, I got it now. Thanks so much.

So if I take a 3-semester program that will start in May 2024 (end in May 2025, I suppose), I will not be eligible for a 3-year PGWP? I will complete my current program in December this year. I started my current program in May 2023.

Dear all, I will take another 1-year program after my current postgrad program is completed in December 2023. However, most of the May 2024 programs in my college are closed now. If I take the September 2024 program, can I apply for a study permit extension from inside Canada and stay until the...

Thank you so much @Naturgrl and @scylla for your explanation!

I'm sorry for confusing you. So, my oldest son is now attending university in my home country and after reading your suggestion and @scylla's I will apply for his independent study permit next year after he completes the treatment. As for my younger son, I actually plan to let him retake the...

He will attend college, he starts his 1st year of college next month. So, basically, for my younger son (he's in 12th grade now) whose treatment will be completed in November, I can apply study permit for him right after he clears the medical right? Thanks.

Dear all, I will apply for my PGWP by this year's end or January next year (my PG study is only 1 year) and I want to know what my options are considering my circumstances: I want to sponsor my children of 17 & 18 years old. The youngest is under non-infectious TBC treatment until November...

It's an advanced diploma in college. The tuition is around 17k per year. Thanks for the insight.

Dear all, How much POF should be shown by an international student who is sponsored by his mother? His mother is in Canada at the moment with PGWP and will pay for everything. Thanks.

Viewed 2 apartments now, and they promised to send me the application form, but nothing.

Sorry for my late reply, I did receive my study permit on 30 March 2023, 12 weeks after submission in January 2023. Good luck to all of you!

Hi all, I need any insight regarding my son who will come to Canada with a visitor visa. 1. As he's 18 years old, I believe he should apply for a study permit independently, not linking to my study permit (while still mentioning my status as an international student). Is this correct? 2. If...

Dear all, I'll start my study in May 2023 and I actually intend to keep freelancing while studying to support my expenses while in Canada. I found this at https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/work/work-off-campus.html: Working outside Canada You can...

Okay then, I'm a bit worried as I have ongoing project now which has started and will be completed by May 2023 (after I start the course) and the amount is around USD 3,800. And my client is not even Canadian company nor based in Canada.

Hi Luke, How did you arrange/keep track of this self-employed activity during your status as international student? I'm about to start my postgrad study in London, ON, and intended to keep freelancing (I'm freelance translator) to support my expenses here in Canada. Considering the 20...

You will get it if you haven't yet! I'll pray for you and everyone here :)

Thanks for the info. I'll go to the local visa office tomorrow morning, hopefully, they have express service to expedite things.

Dear all, My study permit is approved a few hours ago :eek: thank God, it's been the hardest 12 weeks in my life. However, the update on tracker is different from the GCKey account and not updated yet. My eligibility status on tracker even set as 'not started'.
