Yes we can help you with courses that you can apply to in Canada.
With regards to your student visa application, the Canada student visa (Study Permit) process starts after you receive an offer letter (Letter of Acceptance) from a Designated Learning Institution (DLI). Once you have the offer, you can begin your online application with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
Step-by-step process:
Receive admission offer from a DLI
Pay tuition deposit (often first year or part payment, as required by the university)
Arrange financial proof (savings, education loan, or sponsor funds)
Apply online for Study Permit on the IRCC portal
Give biometrics (fingerprints and photo)
Complete medical examination (if required)
Wait for visa decision and passport stamping
Key documents required:
Valid passport
Letter of Acceptance (LOA) from Canadian institution
Proof of tuition fee payment or deposit receipt
Proof of funds (bank statements, fixed deposits, or education loan sanction letter)
Sponsor documents (ITR, salary slips, bank statements, or business proof if sponsored)
Statement of Purpose (study plan)
Passport-size photographs
Biometrics instruction letter
Medical test report (if required by IRCC)
English test scores (IELTS/PTE, if required by the university)
Financial requirement:
You must show:
1 year tuition fees, and
Living expenses (currently around CAD 20,635 per year for a single student as per IRCC guidelines)
It is also highly recommended to opt for a GIC (Guaranteed Investment Certificate), especially for college and postgraduate diploma programs, as it strengthens your financial profile and makes the visa process smoother by demonstrating guaranteed living expense coverage.
