Has anyone received approval for their OINP application under the International student stream in the recent months? I’ve applied on December 16, 2021 and it is still in DIP at this point (it has been for a while now). I’ve tried following up, but did not receive a response. It has been more...

Yes and my university recognizes this too, the main priority is to protect the Canadian community, and the students as well. That’s why only 10-15% of the programs from my University have an on-campus component (with my program belonging to this category), and bulk of the other programs will be...

In my case, my program is 80% online with 2 courses that entail heavy lab works. I couldn’t fly out due to the local restrictions from my home country (and with the airline cancelling my flight twice), so I’ll start remotely. But I’ll still need to fly out when I can to make up for the classes...

I understand what you’re saying and just like you, this situation has also been causing me anxiety. At this point though, how IRCC or CSBA handles the situation is beyond our control, and inasmuch as it really isn’t ideal, we’ll have to do what will be best for our individual case. There’s a...

I think there is no sure fire way of knowing unless one gives it a shot. As long as you are confident with your reasons, you have the proper documentation, and you are aware of the possible risks, then it should be okay to try. At this point it’s more of a personal decision depending on the need...

They mentioned that delivery will be “Temporarily online with Alternative Delivery components and On-campus Components”. They also wrote that “In consideration of the challenges presented by remote access, including global time zones and internet reliability, they recommend that students access...

Yes, I have online classes for the Fall. Actually, my program will offer hybrid learning (alternative delivery components and on-campus components), but the university said that they will tweak and move the on-campus component to the latter part (Winter term). My visa was granted before March...

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/service-delivery/coronavirus/temporary-residence/study-permit.html#toc_2 Update from IRCC - Travellers with visas issued before March 18 are further categorized into...

Go for a Post Grad or PhD course that’s IT related. It should be a progression of your studies or your career. Also, even if your ultimate goal is to have a PGWP or to migrate to Canada eventually, don’t state this in your letter of purpose. Having a gap doesn’t matter - I had a long gap too...

We just had an orientation with the school today and they CLEARLY stated that letting people in the border is subject to several factors and is on a case to case basis - it’s NOT merely just having a visa approved before March 18. If you’re let in then congratulations, good for you. But NOT all...

Thanks. Flight for late July was cancelled so I’ll need to rebook, but I’ll put it on hold for now until IRCC/CBSA issues clearer guidelines.

I got my student permit at 35. Here is my profile and approval timeline: - Single, female - 10 years work experience in the Marketing field - Graduated with a B.A. in Marketing - Working with the family business - Taking up Post-Grad in Marketing Fall 2020 intake Applied December 9, 2019...

You can travel but there is no assurance that the Border Officers will let you in even with a visa issued before March 18. They consider a lot of factors, and having online classes can either be essential/non-essential depending on your overall situation. They can still deny entry even if you...
