Immigration Consultant Considerations and Notes

Accuracy of Information:
- Student’s Name: Ensure that the full name matches the passport exactly. Any discrepancies could lead to complications during the visa application process.
- Date of Birth: Cross-check the student’s date of birth to ensure accuracy across all documents (passport, study permit application, and Letter of Acceptance).

Matching Program and Previous Education:
- Ensure that the program chosen by the student aligns with their academic background. If there is a significant deviation, the student should be prepared to explain this in a Statement of Purpose or Study Plan, which should be submitted to the immigration authorities when applying for the study permit.

Visa History:
- If the student has previously been refused a visa or study permit (for Canada or any other country), this must be disclosed and discussed. Include any supporting documents explaining the reason for refusal and demonstrate that the issues have been addressed in the current application.

Financial Proof:
- Immigration consultants should double-check that the student has sufficient financial documentation to prove that they can support themselves in Canada. This includes bank statements, scholarship letters, or affidavits of support from family members or sponsors. If the student is relying on a third party (e.g., parents), the relationship and ability to support should be clearly explained.

Letter of Acceptance (LOA):
- Verify that the LOA has accurate information that matches the program the student is applying for and includes all the required information such as program dates, institution details, and payment status (tuition fees already paid or pending).
- Double check the LOA to see if a program includes a co-op/work component with study; apply for a co-op work permit with a study permit.

Detailed Study Plan:
- Ensure that the student has a clear and logical study plan. Immigration officers want to see a direct connection between the student's education in Canada and their future goals in their home country. The more precise and clear the student’s intentions are, the higher the likelihood of approval.

Program Duration and Study Permit Implications:
- If the student is applying for a program that is 6 months or less, no PAL is required. However, the student should still be mindful of their visa type (tourist visa vs. study visa).
