I have been waiting for some info like this but thought you'd add details of the effects of change of school on the already acquired visa. I am also eager to see a video on the process of deferring after sometime of studies and it's consequences. Thanks buddy.

    Hi!Thank you for great information. Always love your content and clear answers.
    I am also in a situation. I applied for a study permit in September and one DLI starting in Winter 2023. But my application has not been approved yet. I have a second admission letter which I got very late for winter admission and I wanted to move there as it is UOT for Ph.D. :). I am confused should I upload the second letter now and I should wait for a study permit decision, land in Canada, and then change schools right after reaching there? I am confused as IRCC's new rule about changing schools is one should be active, studying to change school inside Canada.

    Hi Max, thanks so much for the information. My sister applied for study permit a week ago, but she got an LOA from a much better uni. Does giving a web form increase the processing time for the application? Do we have to attach new Study Plan to the webform or just the LOA will be fine. She is in Bangladesh right now so I was worried it may delay further. Her program starts on September 2023

    Hi max, thank you so much for the info. I have finished 3 semesters in the current school in the program I'm enrolled in and I have decided to change the school and program, got an acceptance letter from my new school. Can I just let them know using GC key and start my course in the new school or should I do anything more other than that? (I'm in Canada btw). And also will I get any kind of confirmation on my email that they have successfully changed the schools? And also should I inform my previous school that I'm switching to a new dli? Appreciate your work. thanks.

    Hi Max, thank you so much for the information . I have one question. I came here in canada onJan 2023, then after studying for two months i feel I should change the college. So I applied to another college and got the offer letter on April for sept 2023. Then my 1 semester finish here and i got the summer break and I am working on SIN. So am I eligible to work in scheduled break even though i got accepted in other college? Morever, i still havenot took the drop from my first college.

    Hi Max. Thanks for your clear and thorough explanation for this process. What will happen when we submit the application for transferring school in scenario 3? Is that IRCC will inform us that the application has been approved so that we can enroll to new school or we just need to stride to it after informed IRCC? What if I back to my country a while for some personal reasons and is there any trouble it could cause to affecting the customs process when I back to Canada?

I have a very important question to you that when should I change my DLI number in my GC key as i have already got the study permit and currently enrolled in an undergraduate program. I got a new LOA from SLC for January intake in Ontario. When should i do that upon the start of my classes in that college or before joining. @Max

  • @the4thmaninthefireinternat114

    Thank you Max, just to be very clear please. A student is interested in a two year diploma in a new school but about applying for visa using a one year postgraduate certificate program LOA from another school . Do you advise the student to go ahead to get LOA from the second school now but only do the changing after arriving in Canada or do you advise the student to wait to get to Canada before getting the LOA from the new diploma course of interest? The student wants to know to avoid losing the seats in the new school if the LOA is not secured on time and acceptance paid. Again, will getting the second school LOA affect the visa chances even if the IRCC is not informed yet ?

    Hi Max, thank you for the great information. I actually applied twice for my study permit which had General studies as my program and unfortunately got rejected in both due to mistakes and insufficient documents. But I am not giving up hope and i am interested in applying for the third time but also thinking about switching my program to an associates degree in science which is a university transfer as well. does doing this decrease my chances on a study permit approval since my first two applications had a different program or will it be fine to do so bc i havent submitted my third application yet?

What is the possibility of changing from Postgraduate Certificate Course ( one year course without Co-op) to Diploma ( 2 year course with Co-op) in different provinces after arrival in Canada in the first semester. Do you advise one to secure the Diploma admission at hand while processing for visa for the postgraduate certificate course? I really look forward to hearing from you soon

    Hello, first of all, I want to thank you for this wonderful video. Secondly, I have two questions. The first one will be how can I change my study program at the same college while I am still in my country of residence and have my study permit? It is like your second scenario but I want to change my program at the same college not changing the college itself. The second question will be, how can I change the program after I get the post-graduate work permit to another program at the same college? Thanks in advance.

I am concerned as I saw on th IRCC web that student has to '"enrolled at a DLI " and " actively studying '' before making a school transfer.

I am an international student at a Canadian university and currently pursuing a Master's degree in Business Analytics and I'm with my spouse in Canada. However, I was working in the banking industry for ten years in my home country, and I have a BBA and MBA. Despite my experience, I am interested in changing my career path to electrical engineering, a field that has always interested me since my childhood. Therefore, I am considering enrolling in a two-year diploma program in electrical engineering at Algonquin College instead of continuing my Master's program. I would like to know if this is a logical and what are the steps

    Meanwhile earlier I had been accepted into York Pgm PG Certificate program and Post receiving confirmation & receipt of the payment from York SCS, I applied for Canadian Visa at IRCC on 28th Feb 2023 providing the documents from the same in the SDS category and got my biometrics done on the 6th March 2023, and it has now been approved and I have to send my visa to be stamped on my passport for that where I attached LOA and everything from the PG Certificate program.
    For my current situation, I received an offer for MA in IST for Fall 2023 intake, on the 13th of March 2023, which leaves me in a confusing situation as to what is to be done as I want to MA in IST as I have accepted the offer for it as well and want to do masters.
    The DLI is the same for both courses, but the duration of pgm which I applied for is 1 year and the duration of the master's is 2 yrs.

    I have changed my DLI number recently using GCKey account as you showed on your video. My concern is that I didn't receive any confirmation emails or messages from the IRCC to verify that my DLI number was successfully changed. Also, I noticed that at no point during the process was I asked to upload my new college's Acceptance Letter. I'm finding it a bit difficult to navigate the system and ensure everything is set correctly. I certainly don't want to find myself in a situation where I thought my DLI number had been changed but in fact, it was not. How to confirm if my DLI number change was successful?

    I recently got approved for my study permit outside canada and I wanted to change schools which meant I am required to submit a new permit and my new study permit application has just been approved in just 1 month and 2 weeks. I necessarily don’t believe that applying again after approval will increase your chances of refusal. I stay in South Africa btw 🇿🇦

    Hi Max, do I need to ‘physically’ attend the courses in the first DLI for a day before requesting to transfer to a second DLI that offered me a place?! It sounds like I may not hear back but can proceed to legally attend classes in the second DLI thereafter..So can I already treat myself successful and start courses enrolment in the second DLI even before landing in Canada?

    Thank you for sharing your info. I just have one question which is not completely related to your video. I got my study permit approval and didn’t leave my home country yet. I don’t wanna risk of getting refusal by changing my university yet, so I would rather studying for one year in Canada, then change with ‘student transfer’ option. My question is, for student transfer, should the programs be identical or they just need to be in the same faculty? (I am going to study Bachelor of Health Science, but the university I want to change to, have Bachelor of Science, Biology Major)

    Hi,
    Thanks for your valuable information. I also got stuck in a similar situation, however I have read somewhere that if you are in Canada and you are going to change your DLI, it is important that whether your previous school is in same province as your new LOA or not. It was written that if it is in other province you should apply for new study permit. Is it right? Have you heard of that?
    Another question is that i am not currently in canada and i intend to change the DLI, how can i do that in GCKEY portal? You talked about changing DLI while staying in home country using IRCC WEBSITE. I applied for study permit with GCKEY portal and i dont know how to change DLI and attach the LOA. If i am going to change the DLI, shall i update other documents like study plan in GCKEY portal? Please help me out.
    Thanks.

    In the mean time he applied to a different program in a different college to start in May 2023.
    How would you recommend to explain the immigration office that he will do the a program at Connestoga College from May to December 2023 followed by the initial program from January 2024 onwards?
