Frequently Asked Questions

I do not meet the required language level, how does the pathway work?


When we enroll through Immiland for the main program in one of our partner colleges or universities, you must present the language level through one of the tests accepted by the college or university, if you do not meet the minimum required , it is the college who places you in a level and indicates the time and cost of the same. The pathway is taken before the program, the college gives you a letter of acceptance program + pathway, this will be conditional, which means that to start the program you must successfully complete the pathway.

‍

You must take into account that when you go through the pathway, neither you nor your partner (if applicable) will be able to work until you complete the pathway and obtain an unconditional letter of admission.

‍

To know the cost and time of the pathway we need the language test. IELTS Academic type or TOEFL IBT type. You should not enroll without the language test.

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

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 is the CRS score calculated?
Deploy

Scoring is based on four broad categories:

  • Basic human factors (age, education, languages, experience)
  • Spouse or partner (if applicable)
  • Skill transfer factors (combinations that increase your value)
  • Additional factors (such as studies in Canada, siblings in Canada, valid job offer, provincial nomination)

The maximum total score is 1200 points.

Do you provide pet-friendly homes?
Deploy

a) With our suppliers we can definitely help you find homes that accept pets, however you should know that in Montreal cats are more commonly accepted in buildings than dogs. With this information we are not telling you that we cannot find homes that accept dogs, but that the availability is more limited.

‍

b) Please note that each building has its own rules and restrictions.

Do my supporting document translations expire?
Deploy

A translation cannot change over time and must be valid indefinitely unless the original document has changed or expired. If the signature of a certified translator or notary has expired, it does not invalidate the translation. As long as the translator's certification was valid at the time of signing, the translation remains valid.

The only time the translation will expire and a new translation will be required is if the original document has expired or has changed and the applicant submits a new document.

‍

I already have my letter of acceptance (LOA), I want to apply for my visa/study permit, how far in advance should I apply?
Deploy

We highly recommend applying for the visa 5 to 6 months before the start of your classes. This is to avoid that due to embassy delays, your application is not processed on time and you miss the start of your classes. Please be aware that each embassy is different and they are usually very volatile with their processing times, in addition to having delays in their processes. 

If, for example, your classes start in September, then you should ALREADY be applying for the visa in April or May. That is, by April or May you should already have the LOA, the money needed for tuition and living expenses, plus other supporting documents necessary for your application.
