Good news for international students studying in Canada! The Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has announced a new process to support international students transitioning to a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) other more advantageous. Accordingly, for eligible and fully submitted applications, IRCC aims to process within the 60 days.
This is considered a positive step, helping students be more proactive in their study plans and limiting unnecessary disruptions when transferring.
What are the benefits of the new policy?
In the past, transfer application processing times were not always fixed, causing many students to have difficulty in arranging their admission schedules or concerns about affecting Study Permit status.
With the goal of processing about 60 days, students will have more grounds to:
- Proactively plan the transfer and choose the appropriate admission term.
- Reduce the waiting time, limit the risk of interrupting the learning process.
- Ensure residence status and study permits are maintained in accordance with regulations.
- Better coordination with the old and new school during the transition.
Although this is... target processing time, not a commitment that applies to every application, but this policy shows IRCC's efforts in improving the experience of international students.
Conditions for applying target processing time
IRCC only applies a target processing of about 60 days for the following applications:
- - Fully satisfy the prescribed conditions.
- Be declared the right type of dossier when submitting online.
- Have all required documents.
- There is no request for additional information during the review process.
Files that lack documentation, are falsely declared, or are invalid may still be delayed in processing or returned.
Important documents to prepare
In order for the transfer process to take place smoothly, students need to prepare sufficient documents as required by IRCC.
In addition to the usual paperwork when extending Study Permit, the transfer application should now be additionally noted:
- Letter of Explanation (LOE): An explanation letter specifying the reason for the transfer and the plan for study at the new educational institution.
- New PAL/TAL (Provincial/Territorial Attestation Letter): A letter of endorsement of study abroad quota issued by the province or territory to the new school (if required by current regulations).
Preparing your application in the first place reduces the risk of returning it or requiring additional paperwork, which in turn shortens the processing time.
Note when applying online
IRCC recommends students to choose the right items related to Changing Designated Learning Institution (DLI) when applying online.
If the declaration is inaccurate, the dossier may be wrongly classified, affecting the process of review and processing time.
Can students study at the new school immediately?
This is a question that many international students are interested in.
Under IRCC guidelines, not all students are allowed to start their studies at the new school pending a decision on Study Permit.
Permission to study at the new school pending approval will depend on the specific case and the conditions set by IRCC. Therefore, students should carefully study the current regulations or consult a professional before deciding to transfer to a new school to avoid affecting the legal status of residence in Canada.
Tips for International Students
Transferring to a different school can provide more learning and career opportunities, but it is also a procedure directly related to Study Permit status.
Therefore, students should:
- Learn the new rules of the IRCC carefully before transferring.
- Prepare all required documents.
- Apply early to avoid disrupting your study plan.
- Double check the information before sending to limit errors.
Conclusion
The IRCC's goal of processing school transfer applications within 60 days is a positive signal to the Canadian student community. This policy makes the school transfer process more transparent and convenient, and supports students to be proactive in developing their study plans.
However, in order to benefit from the new process, it is still important to prepare complete, accurate documents and comply with the regulations of IRCC. If you have any questions about transfer procedures or Study Permit renewal, you should consult the information from IRCC or seek out reputable consultants for timely support.
