Hello to all! I have a few questions about applying for the student permit w/ dependents (hubby + 2 kids). Ive tried reading through most of the pages but I still have a few questions. Are there families who were approved and are now in Canada or have done the process successfully?
A bit of background on my end. I studied hospitality & tourism and graduated in the early '00, my recent work was working as an ESL teacher for 6 months at a private school in 2016 until my babysitter was unable to take care of my bunso. So syempre, I had to quit. My husband is a hotel manager and have been for 11 years.
Mga tanong ko lang:
- pwede pa ba ako mag-apply ng student permit kahit kasama family ko? naawa ako sa mag-ama ko kung iiwan ko eh. (Husband ko a-aapply ng OWP)
- I'm planning on taking ECE sa Sheridan College in Mississauga Ontario, kasi ever since working sa private school, I wanted to go back ang mag-aral to further my career. Karamihan kasi ng mga katrbaho ko na nag-aadvance sa labas nag-aral.
- I would be able to bring a bit of show money and pay for my full tuition for 1 year. Hindi buo ng showmoney kasi auntie ko pwede kaming tulungan in terms of accomodation.
- Napapansin ko na nakakahina ang may pamilya sa pag-aaralan mo?
- Ang alam ko pwede ma-approve asawa ko ng 1 year Leave-of-Abscence para lang samahan nila ako kahit 1 year, at makapag-aral din mga anako ko then balik na sila ng pinas. We do have a family business (pero nakapangalan sa in laws ko) and may lupa kami dito.
Sa mga factors na yun, assuming na maganda marks ko sa IELTs & pasado sa medical kaming 4, may chance ba?
Hello po. ito po ang opinions ko.
- Yes you can bring your family with you as a student. First, you need to find a school and submit their requirements needed. If you are accepted, you will be given LOA which you need to process your SP.
- Search for schools who offers PGWP after your program. It is better to have a 2 year program para may 3 years PGWP ka after studies.
- In your application for SP, you can declare that you have family members accompanying with you. You can apply your husband for OWP and TRV for the kids. This step might be risky since madami kayo, you need to provide that you are capable enough financially for each member of the family during your stay in Canada and remember you need hometies in your country, so children are strong hometies that you are returning home after your study program. Kaya others would apply solo SP lang muna, then once approved of SP, saka na pinag aapply yung spouse and kids. Pwede naman ito kahit sa initial SP application hindi mo sila dineclare na kasama mo, you have to explain na lang na kung bakit sila susunod sayo sa Canada. This is on a safer side. Sayang kasi if ma-denied kayo as whole family considering all the payments and funds that you need to present. Well, if you are willing to take the risk for apply as a family, pwede naman.
- Proof of funds are important, pwede naman relative ang mag support sayo just have a 'statement of support' to show. Plus other bank accounts or investments or properties. ayun nga, applying as a family of 4, need talaga ng malaking budget for it.
- if you plan to go for SDS (Study Direct Stream) for your SP visa, it would require payment of 1 year tuition, create 10k GIC from Scotia bank and 6.0 IELTS. (some say na bibihira ang nade-denied pag SDS ka). Or you can go for Regular Stream process naman.
- as far as i know, wala naman age limit for applying for Study visa, if you think this option is better for you, wala naman masama.
you may consider:
- check if eligible kayo for Express Entry or Provincial Nominee program. Baka in-demand ang trabaho ng husband mo as manager in some provinces in Canada para diretso PR na. Good luck po on your plans.
