Good day,
Thank you for contacting the Immigration Representatives [requester] note that this mailbox is intended for general guidance and does not provide responses to case-specific inquiries but have
provided the following information as guidance. If you have case specific questions about a file, you are encouraged to submit
the IRCC Web form.
Regarding the email we sent to you on March 11", it appears that the information we provided to you was incorrect.
Please find below an updated answer to your question.

IRCC categorizes levels of study into three primary groups:
4. 1. Primary and Secondary Education: Includes education from grades 1 through 12.
2. 2. Post-Secondary Education: Covers vocational and technical training, college diplomas, and undergraduate programs.
3. 3. Graduate Education and Above: Covers master's and doctoral programs.
Asa result, a college graduate certificate program and a college certificate program are therefore considered
different levels of study.
If a study permit holder has completed a one-year graduate certificate and applied for a study permit extension based on
another one-year graduate certificate program at the same DLI, and then decides to change to a college certificate program,
they would need to apply for a new study permit and coop work permit. This is because the change involves moving toa
different level of study.
