Hello,
am hoping you can clarify PAL requirement for study permit extensions (and in particular, extensions for those under the
previous regime before the PAL was introduced)
‘The guidelines here huips:/wwww canada. ca/ciinnuigration-refigees-citizenship/services/study=canada/study-penmigete
documents/provineialattestation- letter: him indicate exemptions needed for a [requester] exemption is that, if'someone is extending a study permit, staying in the same DLI and year of study, no PAL is needed.
Isa PAL needed:
* Por someone extending a study permit staying in the same DLI but changing their program of study? I believe the
answer is no.
* For someone extending a study permit, istaying in the same DLI but changing their program + ako year of'study? I am
unclear on this one.
Can you please also confirm that the new financial requirements apply to all study permit extensions, respective of when the
student received their initial study permit?
“Thank you,
oases
