Other questions you may be interested in

I am in Canada as a student / worker, can I leave Canada and re-enter?
Deploy

Yes, as long as you have a valid visa or eTA. It is imperative that you have it as this is your travel document. In addition, you must travel with your valid work or study permit because you will be asked for it when you re-enter Canada. Your permit is your legal status in the country, while the visa or eTA is your travel document. 

My study/work permit was issued for less time than the duration of my study program or job offer, why?
Deploy

It is possible that your passport expired before the end of your study program or job offer. Canada cannot issue a permit beyond the validity of your passport.

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


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.
