Canada has seen a significant surge in asylum claims filed by international students this year, with nearly 14,000 applications submitted as of recent reports. This trend has led the Canadian government to reassess its international student visa policies.
 
To study in Canada, international students typically need to apply for a study permit before arriving in the country ¹. The application process requires documents such as a letter of acceptance from a designated learning institution and a provincial attestation letter.
 
Eligibility Criteria:
  • Who can apply: International students who have been accepted into a designated learning institution ¹
  • Required documents: Letter of acceptance, provincial attestation letter, and other supporting documents ²
Recent Changes:
The Canadian government has introduced measures to stabilize the growth of international students, including capping the number of new study permits at approximately 360,000 for 2024 ³. This cap aims to alleviate pressures on housing, healthcare, and other services.
 
Application Process:
International students can apply online or, in some cases, on paper ². The application process involves submitting required documents and potentially providing biometrics.
