Study in Canada as an international student
Apply to study in Canada as an international student, extend your study permit and find out about working while you study or after you graduate.
Canada Post services across Canada may be affected by ongoing delays in service from continued labour negotiations.
Our processes will be unaffected though you may experience delays in:
- sending applications mailed within or to Canada
- receiving mail from us
If you’re planning on traveling to Canada or submitting an application (including for a passport or other travel document), apply early.
Visit Canada Post for more information before sending any application by mail. We’ll keep you updated as we learn more.
Study permit holders may receive emails from the following email address: IRCC.DNISPCompliance-ConformitePEERN.IRCC@cic.gc.ca. Please note that if you receive a message from this email address, it is a real message from IRCC and it is important for you to follow the instructions by the date indicated in the message.
