hi, can you guide me the steps on how to apply to change my program before entering Canada?
Change program
- Thread starter Uvr
- Start date
There's nothing to apply for. If the school has granted you admission to the new program, then you are good to go. IRCC doesn't need/care to know about program changes within the same DLI.hi, can you guide me the steps on how to apply to change my program before entering Canada?
@wonderbly can you please help me with clarification:There's nothing to apply for. If the school has granted you admission to the new program, then you are good to go. IRCC doesn't need/care to know about program changes within the same DLI.
After PPR and Student visa has been approved for a 1 year course, my school wrote that they have insufficient space in the program and now transferred me to a new program which is a 2-year course. They issued me a new LOA and payment receipt. I paid full fee for the 1-year program and the school transfer this for payment of 1st year of the 2-year program. Their reason was that I did not upload my visa on time and the space is filled up.
How would this situation be explained at the POE? Will I be given 1-year study permit or 2-year.
Do I need to notify IRCC? Would changing from 1 year course to 2 years course be an issue?
You will be issued a study permit for the duration (1 year) listed in your Letter of Introduction issued along with your visa. You will be able to apply for study permit extension 60 days before your permit expires.@wonderbly can you please help me with clarification:

Changing program within the same DLI will not raise any issue or concern for you.

How was your experience with the change of program?Thanks for your response
Did you receive the study permit for 2 years or just one?
¿Para no tener que volver a solicitar un nuevo SP? ¿O me causará problemas cuando llegue a Canadá?
[/CIHow was your situation? Share your experience
Hi... could you share your experience when you arrived Canada?Thanks for your response
The immigration officer issued the study permit with the new LOA or with the previous one?
Hola yo también tengo este problema. Aún no llegué a Canadá y cambié mi programa de Hospitalidad a Paralegal. Mismo dli y nivel de estudio. ¿Aún necesito volver a solicitar un nuevo SP? Mis clases comenzarán en septiembre y quiero saber si alguna vez cambio mi programa, ¿me causaría problemas al llegar a Canadá?
Y si es así ¿cuáles son las cosas que debo hacer?

Hi, can you share your experience? The immigration officer issued a study permit with the dates of the new LOA or the previous one?
@wonderbly ¿Puedes ayudarme con una aclaración?
Después de que se aprobó el PPR y la visa de estudiante para un curso de 1 año, mi escuela escribió que no tenían suficiente espacio en el programa y ahora me transfirieron a un nuevo programa que es un curso de 2 años. Me emitieron una nueva LOA y recibo de pago. Pagué la tarifa completa por el programa de 1 año y la escuela la transfirió para el pago del primer año del programa de 2 años. Su razón fue que no cargué mi visa a tiempo y el espacio está lleno.
¿Cómo se explicaría esta situación en el POE? ¿Me darán un permiso de estudio de 1 año o de 2 años?
¿Necesito notificar al IRCC? ¿Sería un problema cambiar de un curso de 1 año a un curso de 2 años?

I a... entry and your experience
HiHi Canuck78,
After landing in Canada, I want to change my 1-year-course to a 2-years-course but still in the same College.
Unfortunately, the 2-years-course is fulfilled so I would have to wait from Sep 21 to Jan 22.
What do I need to do? TIA
I also have changed from 1 year course to a 2 year course but still in the same college so will my PGWP be rejected
Was the program at the same level as the 1 year degree. For example you went from a 1 year postgrad diploma to a 2 year postgrad diploma?Hi

No post graduate certificate to under graduate diplomaWas the program at the same level as the 1 year degree. For example you went from a 1 year postgrad diploma to a 2 year postgrad diploma?
Do you mean college diploma? That would be a significant differenceNo post graduate certificate to under graduate diploma
