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. Ifyou have case specific questions about a file, you

Please see our response to your question.
Most studying requires a study permit, However, as per the Immigration Regulations, a foreign national may study in Canada
without a study permit ifthe duration of their course or program of studies is six months or less and will be completed within the
period for their stay authorized upon entry into Canada. In the case of asylum claimants, since they don’t have an authorized
period of stay per se, they may participate in a course of six months or less without a study permit as long as they are not under
an enforceable removal order.
Note that claimants are issued a conditional removal order as a matter of practice when making a claim, but it only becomes
enforceable if the claim is refused, withdrawn, or abandoned. Clients wishing to enroll in longer-term studies, should apply for a
study permit.
Thank you kindly,
[requester]
