Please note that in order to apply for your visa, you must already have a letter of acceptance in hand plus the other immigration requirements specific to your case. Therefore, we recommend that while you are in the process of getting your Letter of Acceptance (LOA), if you want Immiland to represent you in your visa process, we suggest that you sign a contract with us so that you can get information and advance the visa requirements while waiting for your LOA which is the final requirement, for having made the registration with immiland you can enjoy a 10% discount on visa services. Remember that Immiland can take up to 3 weeks to put together a comprehensive application and then the Government of Canada can take 3 to 6 months (depending on the embassy) to give you an answer,we present a timeline for you to keep in mind to plan accordingly:

• 1. Opening of enrollment at the institutions: The institutions open enrollment approximately 1 year before the beginning of classes, the most recommended is to apply as soon as they open because most of them do not have an application deadline, as soon as the program is full it closes.

• Estimated time for LOA issuance: After sending us all documents for registration: 2 to 12 weeks, may be more or less, depending on the College/University.

• 3. Estimated CAQ issuance times (if going to Quebec): With LOA in hand, you should note that this may take 20 to 30 working days to be issued by the Quebec Ministry.

• 4. Estimated translation times for your visa process: It depends on your translator and the amount of documents you send for translation, in Immiland it can take from 5 to 9 business days if you hire our translators.

In total the process takes approximately one year (sometimes more, sometimes less depending on each profile) so it is recommended to start your counseling in time so that you can prepare all the necessary documentation and start your classes at the desired start of classes.

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.
