Study permit

Temporary permission: This route permits the approved visit, study or work activity. It does not itself grant permanent residence or citizenship. A separate eligible settlement route must be secured before planning a nationality application.

Secure the eligible admission and any required provincial documents, then submit the study-permit application with financial and personal evidence. Maintain enrolment and comply with study and work conditions.

An eligible acceptance, sufficient tuition and maintenance funds, genuine temporary-resident eligibility and the required health and character evidence.

DLI acceptance, a provincial or territorial attestation letter unless exempt, funds and identity documents. Québec study can require a CAQ. Public-institution master’s and doctoral students have a current attestation exemption.

Temporary study permission, with work rights only where the permit and current rules allow. Graduate work permission and PR are separate applications.

DLI admission does not guarantee post-graduation work-permit eligibility or permanent residence. Check the course and current graduate rules separately.
