Study permit holders in Canada may enroll in online programs offered by a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) in another
province without violating their study permit conditions. According to IRC guidelines, students must remain enrolled at
their designated institution and actively pursue their studies. Their location within Canada does not affect compliance as long
as they maintain full-time enrollment and meet all study permit requirements.
Regulations under R220.1(1) state that study permit holders must be enrolled at the DL! listed on their permit and
demonstrate academic progress. As a result, a student with a study permit for a Toronto-based DL! may complete their
program online while residing in another province, such as British Columbia, provided they fulfill all enrollment and permit,
obligations.
For further details, please refer to official IRCC guidelines:

Dear [requester]/Madam,
J hope this email finds you well. | am writing to request clarification regarding the eligibility requirements for a study permit
for a program delivered online. Specifically, | am seeking guidance on whether a study permit holder in Canada can study a
program delivered online by an institution located in another province, such as taking an online course offered by a college in
Toronto while living in British Columbia
For further clarity, the college in question is a Designated Learning Institution (DLI), and the program is a full-time, 1-year
diploma
Additionally, | would like to understand whether the location of the student makes a difference in terms of study permit
eligibility. Specifically, would studying an online program from a student's residence in a different part of Canada (e.g.,
British Columbia) versus the same city as the college (e.g., Toronto) impact the study permit conditions or eligibility?
I would appreciate any clarification on whether such a study arrangement would violate the conditions of the study permit,
particularly in relation to maintaining full-time enrollment and compliance with the regulations stated under R220.1(1).
Thank you for your time and assistance. | look forward to your prompt response.
[NAME REDACTED]
