POE Introduction Letter Expiry

[AhmedAlagha]

Hello,

It came to my knowledge that once a study permit is approved, I will be given a letter of introduction that has some sort of an Expiry Date and I have to be in Canada before this data to get the Study Permit. Any idea how what is the duration from the day the issue the introduction letter to the expiry date?

Thanks !

It is valid for one year after the data in which was issued. However due to COVID you can request an extension. See the link below:

This is for IEC, and not necessary for students. To my knowledge, IEC is a working holiday of a sort for selected countries. We may have different conditions since student comes to study and not work
