What are the conditions of my study permit?

Answer

As a study permit holder, you need to meet a number of conditions. If you don't meet these conditions, you may lose your student status and study permit. You may also have to leave Canada.

• As a study permit holder, you must:

  • be enrolled at a designated learning institution (DLI), unless you're exempt
  • show you’re actively pursuing your studies, unless you’re exempt, by
  • being enrolled full-time or part-time during each academic semester (excluding regularly scheduled breaks)
  • making progress towards completing your program’s courses, and
  • not taking authorized leaves longer than 150 days from your study program
  • tell IRCC any time you change post-secondary schools
  • end your studies if you no longer meet the requirements of being a student, and
  • leave Canada when your permit expires
  • other study permit conditions you may need to follow

• You may have other conditions listed on your study permit. You must follow these conditions, which could include:

  • the level of studies
  • if you’re allowed to work on or off campus as a student in Canada
  • if you need to report for medical procedures
  • if you’re allowed to travel within Canada, and
  • the date you must stop studying.
