Confusing information regarding proof of financial support for student visa

[2b.or.not.2b]

No as long as the bank is on the approved list if IRCC you will not have any problems.

I tried searching for the approved list. There is no specific list given in the cic website. Where can I find this information?

Ok, I got the list.
But this list is for the VACs in India.
I will be applying from Bahrain, so will they still approve it.
(I took a loan from an Indian bank by mortgaging my dad's property in India)

I don't think it will be an issue.

If your entire program is of one year, then you still have to make the payment of one years fee. The duration of the program is not a factor. Under SDS, you do not need to show proof of funds.

What if someone is not going the SDS path, will he be required to also make one full year tuition payment, if the total length of his intended program is 1year.

Hello Selvakk,

Unrelated to this thread but it seems you have some expertise in this field. If I apply to a Master's program different to my B.S. and Post grad cert., do I have to worry about being denied based on field of study? It is in a renowned uni (York).

 

[KayCabana]

No

Thank you for the contribution.

That means a minimum of one semester tuition, proof of fund (amounting to a minimum of 10,000 CAD) will be sufficient to apply for student permit?

If you give a good reason for joining the program then no. I did my bachelor's in hospitality and am currently doing a post grad in marketing.

You need to show that you have enought funds to cover your entire tuition plus 10,000 CAD for living expenses.

No, IELTS is only mandatory for the Study Direct Stream ( SDS ) which is only for students of colleges who want faster processing and less stringent requirements.

If such a number or email existed they would be flooded with so many calls or emails that no one would be able to respond. While their website is good information is scattered around many pages. Add on to the fact that the CIC website is rarely the first search result means that people go on other web pages with outdated information or which are not complete.

Whatever I told you is on the CIC website but to find this out you would need to click on how to apply for a study visa and scroll down to apply via paper and then select your country to download the document package. In that, there is separate instruction for universities which you have to follow in your case. It is very convoluted and not at all user-friendly.

Hi bro i already have my acceptance letter from DLI . however, can one apply for student visa without IELTS but from an Englush speaking country?

You will have to see the requirements for the country where you are applying from.
