Study Permits

Study permits are required for foreign nationals who wish to study at a Canadian educational institution.

To be eligible to study in Canada, you must be accepted by a designated learning institution in Canada. Once you receive this acceptance, you can then apply for permission to study in Canada. It is important to make sure that the courses or programs that you choose in Canada conform with the type of study/work that you have completed in the past. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will be looking to see that your study plan is consistent with your past education.

You must also prove to IRCC that you are able to financially support yourself during your studies, as well as have enough money to pay all your education fees. You can include proof of financial support from your parents to help satisfy IRCC that you have the required funds to support your studies. In cases of minor children, IRCC will want to see that the minor has also made satisfactory arrangements for his or her care. In addition, IRCC will want to see that they have sufficient ties to their home country and that they will return home once they have completed their studies.

It is important to note that certain institutions and lengths of programs will qualify you for off-campus and post-graduate work permits. If you are hoping to work during or after your studies, it is important to determine ahead of time whether your chosen school/program qualifies.

My mother’s super visa was initially rejected when I applied on my own. However, with the help of lawyer Lijing Cao and immigration consultant Shuai Dong, her visa was successfully approved. They did an amazing job the entire process was seamless, and their communication was always prompt and professional. I highly recommend them 100%!

I am deeply grateful to Bellissimo Immigration Law Group PC for assisting me during one of the most challenging periods in my life. When all seemed lost and there was a very high possibility that I might have to leave Canada, they took on my case with such care, professionalism and expertise. They guided me through the federal appeal process with confidence and compassion and secured approval for my permanent status in Canada.
As I have utilised other legal services before Bellissimo, I can assure you, where others fall short, they deliver.

Very helpful and knowledgeable people. You do have to stay on top of things but overall I found them very supportive and involved in my case.
