A study permit is a legal document issued by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). It authorizes foreign nationals to study full-time at a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) in Canada.
Your permit remains valid for the entire duration of your academic program, plus an additional 90 days. This extra time allows you to prepare to leave Canada or apply for an extension.
Duration: Valid through your course plus 90 days.
Work Rights: Permits part-time work (up to 20 hours/week) and full-time work during academic breaks.
Family Benefits: Your spouse may apply for an open work permit, and dependent children can attend school in Canada.
IRCC made several important changes to the study permit process for 2025. Here’s what you need to know:
Biometric Expansion: More countries now require biometrics. Most appointments are processed within 10 days.
Financial Requirements Increased: Proof of funds must now cover 10% more to match updated living expenses.
New Digital Tools: Applications through the Student Direct Stream (SDS) benefit from quicker processing via digital ID systems.
Minimum Program Length: Courses shorter than six months are no longer eligible for a study permit.
PGWP Eligibility Update: Students in eligible DLIs automatically qualify for the Post-Graduation Work Permit, provided they complete a full-time program of at least eight months.
