Canada Visas

Canada is the much flexible country for international students in the world to get permanent citizenship after completing the study program. Choose to study in Canada, and you’ll have the opportunity to encounter vastly different cultural and natural experiences – from the ski slopes of British Columbia to the prairie province of Manitoba, with cities such as Toronto, Montréal, Vancouver and Quebec famously friendly, tolerant and multicultural.

Canada Student visa Eligibility requirements

Because of the high reputation and flexibility of Canadian universities they grab the attention of many international students for higher education each year. For higher education purposes in Canada, you must have to achieve a good score from your home country (Good academics grades and minimum 6 in IELTS scores) and a proper intention to study, then you need a Canadian study offer letter from a Designated learning institutions. In order to get a visa, the candidate will have to apply for a visa of Temporary Residence from their Home Country. After arriving in Canada, Immigration will issue study permits to students.

For Canada, you will need a student visa, which, depending on your home country, will be either an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) or a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV).

1. Canadian Study Permit – this is not a visa, it’s a permit which allows you to study in Canada. If you hold a study permit, you must remain enrolled and make reasonable and timely progress towards completing your course.

2. Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) – this is a recent requirement for visa-exempt, non-U.S. foreign nationals. Your eTA is valid for five years or until the passport you used to apply for the eTA expires (whichever is sooner), and can be used to travel to Canada many times.

3. Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) – for students who have been accepted into a designated learning institution and are unable to apply for the eTA.

It is important that you make sure you have the correct study permit for your international studies before you leave for Canada.

Ensure you have the right ‘Study Permit’ by getting information from the Canadian immigration authority known as the Immigration, Refugees and Citizen Canada (IRCC). We will help you access the latest information and connect you with authorized bodies.

To find out if you need an eTA or a visitor visa, and how to apply, visit the Government of Canada website.
