Study Permit

If you wish to stay in Canada for more than 6 months to pursue a program of study at a designated educational institution, you must apply for a study permit. Most foreign nationals need this document if they wish to study in Canada.

A study permit is different from a temporary visa or an electronic travel authorization. The permit is issued upon entry with a valid visa at one of Canada's borders.

The study permit is usually valid for the entire period of study in Canada, whether it is 1 year, 2 years or even more.

However, in some cases, students must apply for an extension of their stay in Canada within 90 days of losing this status or ask for their status to be restored.

If the student leaves Canada while studying, they may be required to show proof of enrollment in school when they return to Canada. If the student has a visitor visa or electronic travel authorization (ETA), it too must still be valid upon return to Canada.

Under current Canadian laws and regulations, a graduate of a designated educational institution has the right to apply for a post-graduation work permit that allows them to work in Canada for a period equal to the duration of the program they completed. They can also apply for permanent residency after gaining certain Canadian years of experience in the marketplace and meeting some other requirements.
