Study Permit for Minors
Welcome to CanWiz Services: Your Gateway to Securing Study Permits for Minors in Canada
Are you considering sending your child to study in Canada? Navigating the process of obtaining a study permit for minors can seem overwhelming, but with the right information and guidance, it can be a straightforward process. Canada offers world-class educational opportunities for students of all ages, including minors seeking to pursue their academic aspirations.
What is a Study Permit for Minors?
A study permit is an official document issued by the Government of Canada that allows foreign nationals, including minors, to study at designated learning institutions (DLIs) in the country. For minors (children under the age of 18), a study permit is necessary for pursuing education at primary or secondary schools in Canada.
Key Points to Consider
Eligibility Criteria
- To apply for a study permit, minors must have received acceptance from a Canadian school or institution before applying.
- Proof of financial support for tuition fees, living expenses, and return transportation is required.
- Minors may need to provide a custodian declaration form if they are under the age of majority in their province.
Application Process
- School Acceptance: Secure admission to a Canadian DLI. Obtain a letter of acceptance, which is a crucial requirement for the study permit application.
- Gather Documents: Collect necessary documents, including passport, photographs, proof of financial support, letter of acceptance, and more.
- Online Application: Apply online for the study permit through the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) website or through a visa application center (VAC) in your home country.
- Biometrics and Interview: Depending on the country of residence, biometrics may be required. In some cases, an interview might be conducted.
Custodianship for Minors
- Minors studying in Canada without a parent or legal guardian must have a Canadian custodian.
- The custodian is responsible for the well-being of the minor, including providing a home and support during their stay in Canada.
- A custodian declaration form must be submitted, confirming the custodian's willingness and ability to take on this responsibility.
