Change Visitor Visa to Study Permit (Part 2)
When it comes to applying for a student visa, age is one of the most important elements for a visa officer to approve your case. When applying for a student visa, usually more than 2 years after graduation or over 25 years old, there is a risk of “advanced age”. When applying for a student visa directly, the age issue may become an obstacle.
However, in the travel visa transfer program, more than 50% of our successful customers are over 40 years old, and most of them are the parents of foreign students. The most successful case with customers is 55 years old.
Reading upside down means that the qualifications are upside down. For example, domestic undergraduate students apply for Canadian colleges, and domestic masters apply for Canadian universities or colleges.
Canadian colleges and research courses are relatively simple, short in time, and highly applicable. Many people also have collaborative internships and apprenticeships that make it easy to find jobs and immigrate, so this is very helpful for people with higher education in China who decide to study. Many white-collar workers who intend to immigrate need to read backwards. On the point of reverse reading, it is much easier to transfer students than to submit an application in China. The application materials and the logic of the approval agency are completely different. More than 80% of the customers who successfully applied for the transfer of education are inverted.
Group 3: History of visa refusal
The passing rate of the second visa application for student visa is lower after the first refusal. If the applicants have a major change that occurred after the first visa application (such as inheritance, IELTS re-examination score improvement), then it is difficult for the Immigration Bureau to reverse the case and give you approval for the second time.
Many families of domestic international students find us after they have refused their visas. Usually, if the domestic student visa is rejected, transfer to school is the only way out. This is because the approval agency for applying for a student visa in Canada is different from the agency that submits the student visa in China, and the logic and focus of the approval for applications in Canada are different.
So the suggestion: Make sure to do the travel visa first, and then do the study visa! The refusal of a tourist visa has little effect on the student visa; once a tourist visa is issued, an additional channel and insurance is given to the student visa. After entering the country through the tourist visa, applying for a student visa in Canada also has a higher success rate. But if the reverse is true, if the domestic application for a study visa is rejected and then apply for a travel visa, the chance of passing the visa in a short period of time is very low!
A lot of people who want to come to Canada but don’t know where or how to start. Especially people with a history of visa refusal, older age, single mother/single father who want to immigrate to Canada to work. Another option for them is changing visa status from visitor visa to study permit. This is a safe way to immigrate to Canada.
Crowd 6: Applicants who may have problems with the proof of funds
When applying for a Canadian student visa, you need to provide a certain period of deposit history (the embassy requires a deposit history of more than 12 months). Now, because of the diversity of financial management methods and the increase in investment awareness, few people deposit a lot of money Banks, so many people only put out a lot of money before applying for a visa. Of course, if the applicant’s IELTS score exceeds 5.5 or 6, he can apply for a visa through SPP (Student Cooperation Program) or SDS (Student Direct Entry Program). The funding requirements for visa application through various channels will be much simplified.
Process
1. Obtain a Canadian tourist visa
Canadian visa is one of the most difficult visas for Chinese citizens to apply for when traveling abroad, mainly because Canada is a big country of immigrants. Many people have a direct or indirect tendency to emigrate and are refused visas. The key points for Canadian tourist visa approval are: travel history, proof of funds and domestic connections.
2. Choose a language school in Canada
Not all Canadian language schools meet the “travel transfer” criteria. Please visit the official list of designated educational institutions (DLI) for inquiries. You can also contact us for help; we will plan the most suitable language school and course for you based on your current situation, including your place of residence, language level and future plans.
3. Language testing and admission
Candidates must complete the school’s language test before admission to determine the length of the language course; here, special attention should be paid to the following facts: travel visas can stay for no more than 6 months of entry; therefore, applicants must calculate their own length of stay And the duration of the course, and then make a detailed plan to avoid the risk of being forced to leave.
4. Complete the language course and receive the university acceptance letter
Students should check the admission requirements and language requirements (entry requirements) of the university (college) they are applying for before registering for language courses, and apply immediately after completing the language test. The school will also send you a letter of acceptance within a short period of time, which is a conditional offer (Conditiional Offer).
5. Apply for a student visa
After completing the above steps, as long as the travel visa is still within its validity period, the applicant can apply for a Canadian study visa in the country. As with ordinary student visa applications, applicants can register for an account through the official website of the Canadian Immigration Service to complete the entire application process. Compared with the first foreign student visa, the materials required to apply for a student visa in China will be much less:
- passport
- Tourist VISA
- application form
- Admission Notice
- Proof of funds
- Certificate of academic record
- Explanation letter
