Hello,

I received an Official Admission Letter from the University of Alberta and am now applying for a study permit. I have some questions regarding the Application process and application form (IMM 1294). Could you please advise on them if you are aware.
  1. I've heard about the personal reference code and I am afraid I didn't get/or don't remember one. I created an account and going through the application without that code, but I doubt now, maybe I'm doing something wrong without getting that code, or is it normal?
  2. Regarding the application form (IMM 1294), I am confused what to indicate in the cost of studies and funding. should I indicate costs and fundings per year (as it's provided in my admission letter) or for the whole 4-year course?
  3. There are 3 cells in the cost of studies (Tuition, Room and Board, Other). Is it necessary to fill all three or can I leave for example "Other" blank? and in case I feel all of them, should the summery of them be equal exactly to the funding or can it vary?
  4. And maybe there are there some estimate numbers what should I indicate in Room/Board and Other in case of Edmonton.
I would be glad to have your soonest response. many thanks.

If you start a new application there is an option to go through the quiz where you get the code.

Tuition is your 1 year tuition, boarding is minimum 10,000 other is 2-5000. Funds are the liquid funds you have available which should at least cover the costs and which you will show proof for in your application.

Thanks for your answer.

I went through that test at first but didn't pay attention to the code to save it or something. Then, when I tried to create an account for the application it didn't mention any code to write in and as I haven't saved any, continued the process normally. what I wanted to ask was is it normal not to need that code or am I doing something in a wrong way?

So for example, if I write Tuition - 9,300 p/a, boarding 10,000 p/a and other - 5000 p/a (= 24,300 in total p/a) it's not a problem to be a bit different than 24,000 - the amount that I indicate as funds p/a, am I correct?

Funds must cover the expenses at least, if you have more expenses than available funds that wont work.

Dont think thats normal, if you haven't submitted just try start a new application and see if the code option comes up. Im guessing you already went through the questionaique when doing the application, if you went through it its the same as providing the code.

Thank you very much for your support :)

Regarding the code, yes I went through questionnaire, but can not see any code there. that's why I was interested is it normal or not.

Hello,

Do I have to submit the filled Document Checklist with my online study permit application as it's said on the document itself?
"This document checklist is one of the forms that you need to submit with your application"

If so, do I have to submit it together with other additional documents in Client Information?

Thanks.
