Frequently Asked Questions

As an international student, can you work in Canada without a work permit?

Yes, you must have a study permit and be enrolled full-time in an academic, professional or vocational training program at a DLI.

However, your study permit must clearly state that you have the ability to work off-campus. If so, you are allowed to work up to 20 hours per week while:
-Your program is in session, and
-Full-time during scheduled breaks in the academic calendar.

You may work for any employer in Canada that is not on the list of ineligible employers.

In addition, if your program has a mandatory work component for graduation you must have the appropriate work permit for your co-op.

How long is my CRS score valid in Express Entry?
Deploy

Once you enter the Express Entry system, your profile is valid for 12 months. If you do not receive an invitation within that period, you can resubmit a new profile. Your CRS score can also be updated if you improve any factors during that time.

Can you help me process my enrollment at a college/university with which you do not have an agreement?
Deploy

No, because we are not legally authorized to do so and we do not know the internal process to process the enrollment. We will only be able to help you if you choose one of our programs because we can commit to handling your application (we have direct contact, access to applications and data management) and we are trained for them.

In case you want to apply to an institution with which we do not have an agreement, we recommend writing to them directly and once you have obtained the LOA, our visa team will be happy to help you with the visa process.

How will I know who is the person who will arrive for me at the airport?
Deploy

a. Days before the arrival of the client Immiland will contact the client to verify all the necessary data: Estimated time of arrival, flight number, amount of luggage and everything related to the arrival of the client.
b. Likewise, we will share the name, characteristics of the person who will be waiting for you upon arrival with a welcome sign from Immiland.

What is a will and why is it important to have one in Canada?

A will is a legal document that expresses how a person's assets should be distributed after death. It is important to have one to prevent the government from deciding the distribution under intestate succession laws.
