Is it possible for me to take my husband and baby with me if I go abroad for studies, and under what conditions in Canada for a Master's?

Yes, you can bring your husband and baby with you to Canada while pursuing your master's studies.

- Husband: He may be eligible for an open work permit if you are enrolled in a master's program of at least 16 months, allowing him to work in Canada. Alternatively, he can apply for a visitor visa, but this does not permit work or study.
- Baby: Your child can accompany you on a visitor visa. If your child is of school age, a study permit may be considered for their education.
- Financial requirement: You must show proof of sufficient funds to support yourself and your dependents during your stay.

Visa rules and financial requirements are subject to change. For personalized guidance, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
