enfield , tiger007.. please give some review on this...??

1) I think it's extremely unlikely you will be granted an extension based on ESL courses.

2) Definitely not.

Can someone enlighten in similar case-

I faced academic suspension for 2 semester [ Before suspension i completed 3 semester ]. i thought of taking admission in other college. But faced bad luck . At last i went to Saskatchewan to do ESL [ As i don't want any gap in my studies]. After completing half of my suspension . I returned to my old college and they accepted me as Full-time student . And cancelled my half suspension period. So now what are my chances for study permit extension?

1. It's not for CIC to see your academic 'performance', you must have;

: a valid SP,
: a full time student status,
: studying with in the maximum course completion period.

1. Poor academic record is not a reason for refusal of SP extension, as long as you are a full time registered student with a valid SP.

Based only on my experience as a former student, it can be a reason for refusal - goes to the core of being a "bona fide" student . An officer needs supporting documents for the extension and trancripts tell the whole story.

In m opinion, the applicant is better off submitting transcripts, an explanation of what happened and what he did to improve. The ESL classes and being re-admitted by the school are strong points.

1. It could be a reason of refusal for OCWP application, but not for SP extension if you are;

1. attending school, full time status with a valid SP.
2. registered with a new LOA in hand.
3. studying within the maximum completion period.

and it's no where mentioned that your SP extension might be refused due to poor academics.

In the interests of applicants with similar stories, thought it best to post here. A study permit remains a priviledge, not a right so extensions are not guaranteed.

Not convinced. I have my SP renewal in hand and at the time of application, I submitted only a new LOA (no transcripts as the same is "optional").


Still in doubt? so read this....


I thought I should not disclose it. I am a post graduate student of business program in Canada. During my very first semester, something terrible happened and I got arrested by the 3 police officers (along with one dog) in a night house raid and after that 5 months of criminal court proceeding. I was forced to drop first semester and did not attend any classes. Once the matter was settled out of court, I applied for SP renewal based only on a new LOA (no transcripts/grades were attached since I was declared failed in the first semester). Fortunately, I got it approved after 57 working days. So, I have a valid fact (actually I always avoid giving opinion) to suggest that academic performance has nothing to do with your SP Extension as long as you are;


: a full time student with a valid SP
: a valid registration in school
: studying with in a maximum course completion period.


According to my University (International Student Office) who advise international students with SP renewal cases, has stated that it's rare for international students to submit "transcript", we got them approved with a new LOA since it's "optional" (not mandatory) to submit transcript.


If you think academic records are really important in deciding SP renewal, then why it's optional to submit transcript along with renewal application.

A very special thanks to PMM for all his guidance during one of the most difficult (and adventurous) time of my life.

The reason I am posting all this is only to encourage students with failed records. If you can submit transcript, that's good, but if you do not have anything to show, you can still manage.

I really appreciate your help Enfield and Seno rita ,
But to be honest, i had a talk with my consultant and he also told me that transcripts are optional.
