You will need to apply for a study permit. You'll need to show a bank balance of $25K to $30K to be accepted. Expect to pay around $13K per year for your high school tuition.

One of the most important points are that you have to show that you'll return back after completing your studies.

Same answer as above. You will need to apply for a study permit. You'll need to show a bank balance of $25K to $30K to be accepted. Expect to pay at least $15K per year for in tuition - likely more.

The first step is to apply to a school in Canada and be accepted into their program.

If you are a minor, under 18 (or 19 in some provinces), you may need a custodian in Canada to act as your guardian as well.

You can get some info about that here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/bulletins/2011/ob339.asp

As they are your dependents, they will have the status of dependents and not independent. If you move when you get your post graduate work permit, you may have to apply to change their study permits to another school. I have no idea how likely it is to get approved but you must at least show that you can support them. If you are denied, you can try applying again after you get a job. It should be a skilled position though. Low skilled workers are not eligible to bring their families.

Thanks Leon, I am grateful, your suggestion helped me....stay blessed! I am going to build Canadian bank statement and purchase of a property..and lets see what God has decided ....if in case the visa doesn't get approve can I apply on compassionate ground? and will this strategy impact on my PR application later.?

 

[scylla]

Unfortunately there is no process for applying on compassionate grounds for visitor visas and tourist visas.

No - applying for the visas will not impact the PR application later. So go ahead and apply for the visas when you are ready.

Good luck.
