Question
I’m reaching out for clarification on whether students applying to restore their student status in Canada are exempt fiom the
Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL) requirement. Afier reviewing the available resources, including the official website and the
Gazette notice , we couldn't find a definitive answer regarding this scenario.
Could you kindly confirm whether a PAL is required for a student status restoration application?
Response
According to IRC guidelines, most study permit applicants, including those applying to restore their student status, are required
to provide a Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL) or Territorial Attestation Letter (TAL). There are specific exceptions, but
generally, a PAL/TAL is needed unless the applicant meets one of these exceptions.
For more detailed information, please refer to the following IRCC webpages:
