注意!加拿大移民局对国际学生的study permit的新规定,自2005年1月31日起生效!
New Policy for international students who want to change institutions
On January 31, 2005, CIC introduced a new policy for international students in post-secondary studies in Canada. These students can now transfer between programs of study and institutions without applying for a change to the conditions of their study permit. They can also transfer between public and private institutions.
Previously, most international students could transfer between the same type of educational institution (for example, university to university, or college to college), but could not transfer between different types of educational institutions (for example, university to college).
This policy applies to students who have a valid Study Permit for training or studying at the post-secondary level, such as:
University
Community College, CEGEP, Institute
Private university, career college, academy, school or training institution
ESL/FSL and other language training
It does not apply to students in Kindergarten to Grade 12 programming.
Implementation
New Study Permits: All Applications for a Study Permit (IMM1294) for post-secondary studies received in person or postmarked January 31, 2005 or later will be processed under this new policy.
Existing valid Study Permits: All post-secondary students currently studying in Canada with a valid Study Permit are covered by this policy. You do not need to submit an IMM1249 (Application to Change Conditions, Extend my Stay or Remain in Canada) to transfer between institutions. For any other changes to your Study Permit, consult Information for Foreign Students (link to http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/info-students.html) or speak to your international student advisor.
Applications to Change Conditions, Extend my Stay or Remain in Canada (IMM1249) that have not received a final decision by January 31, 2005
For applications to only change the type of institution:
The application will not be processed. It will be returned to the student.
A refund of the processing fee will be initiated
For applications requesting multiple changes, including the type of institution:
The application will be processed.
The request to change the Level of Study will not be processed.
The processing fee is applicable.
Questions and answers for international students
1. How does this change in policy affect my chance of being approved for a Study Permit?
Application procedures for Study Permits have not changed. You must follow all of the application procedures for a new Study Permit (link to http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/apply-how.html). CIC’s criteria for assessing your application have not changed.
2. Will Study Permits look any different now?
New study permits (link to sample study permit ? posting is tentative) issued after January 31, 2005 should have the following differences:
The words “Any post secondary” should appear beside “Field of Study” in the upper left corner of the document
The document will no longer contain the following two conditions:
§ “Must be in attendance at a (university/college/etc.) approved pursuant to the immigration regulations"
§ “Attendance specified at the university, college or institution specified by the immigration officer”
The Study Permit will continue to include the name of the institution that you indicated in your original application.
3. How does this change affect my ability to work?
The eligibility criteria and regulations for employment are not affected by this new policy. However:
If you intend to go to a private institution when you apply for a Study Permit, the permit may include the following condition: Unless Authorized, prohibited from engaging in employment in Canada. If you later transfer to a public university or college, you would become eligible for on-campus employment and any other employment provisions available to students at those institutions. You do not need to change your Study Permit to become eligible for on-campus employment; your registration at an eligible institution is sufficient.
If you intend to go to a public university or college when you apply for a Study Permit, you are eligible for on-campus employment and may also be eligible for off-campus employment depending on your province of study. If you choose to transfer to a private institution, you will no longer be eligible for on-campus or off-campus employment.
For further information about on- and off-campus employment, speak to your international student advisor.
