What is the visa renewal process in Canada?

Many students studying in Canada will encounter the problem of visa renewal during their study abroad, and many students and parents ask related questions, so I will give you a brief introduction on how to renew the Canadian visa, hoping to help you.

Studypermit)/ Also called a big visa or a big thesis.

Multiple entry (single entry)/also known as small sign or small paper.

The studypermit visa in Canada is usually valid for 1 year. After 1 year, you need to apply to the local immigration bureau for extension. Generally, if you can successfully complete the first year of the course, you can apply for extending the validity of the visa until the end of the study.

Temporary departure requires a re-entry visa in advance. International students returning to visit relatives during holidays should apply for a re-entry visa to the Immigration Bureau in advance, otherwise they will not return to Canada.

Now it takes two months for students to apply for visa extension. Now all freshmen applying for extension of Canadian student visa need the following materials:

1, Admission Notice (application letter from the school)

2. Transcripts of academic records (transcripts of previous studies)

3. Bank deposit certificate (not less than 7,000 Canadian dollars, preferably more than 10000 Canadian dollars)

4. Copy of passport and student visa, and copy of the page of your passport that passes through and enters the customs.

5. Fill in the application form and apply for changing the terms and conditions or extending my stay in Canada.

6. You need to go to the Canadian Immigration Bureau to get a receipt, which is the proof that you went to the bank to pay the visa fee to the Immigration Bureau.

7. If you are an international student studying in Canada with a student visa (the correct name is "study permit"), you need to apply to the Canadian Immigration Bureau for an "extension" when the original visa time is about to expire.

International students can download, print or obtain the application form for student permit extension from the website of Immigration Canada at http://www.cic.gc.ca, or call Immigration Canada to ask them to send it.

The telephone numbers of immigrants living in major cities are as follows:

Toronto: 4 16-973-4444

Vancouver: 604-666-2 17 1

Montreal: 514-496-10/0

Toll-free number: 1-888-242-2 100 (students outside the above areas can call)

At present, the extension fee for the study permit of Immigration Canada is 125 Canadian dollars. If you want to extend your entry and exit visa (visa on your passport), you have to pay 150 Canadian dollars. If you need to go abroad, such as returning to China for the summer vacation, you must also extend Xiao Zhang's "entry and exit visa" (if you return to Canada, the visa will expire), otherwise you will encounter the embarrassment of not being able to enter Canada again.

Immigration Canada stipulates that visa extension applications should be sent at least one month before the expiration of the original visa, otherwise it will be too late to get a new student permit before the expiration, which will lead to illegal overstaying. Therefore, the renewal application must be sent as soon as possible.

To renew a round-trip visa, that is, a small visa, you must prepare:

1. Bank deposit certificate issued within 5 days before mailing the application form/kloc-0 ($ 10/0,000).

2. The school certificate (which must indicate the subjects studied, the expected completion time and the current level), the most important thing must be the school seal.

3. Your passport (valid for at least half a year)

4. Your study permit (once existed)

5, 2 photos (passport size)

6. Transcripts of the past two years (yes, not two semesters, that's used to postpone students' papers. Many round trips, the transcripts of the past two years must be stamped by the school! ! )

7. Application Form

8. Your cover letter (why do you want to renew multiple round trips? Never say you want to go back in class.

9. Application fee $ 150 (remittance to Canada)

The materials needed depend on the embassies abroad. For international students in China, they are nothing more than Seattle, China, Hongkong and Peking. In Seattle, USA, you should send your passport, application form and two photos, preferably a letter from the school and a financial guarantee, because it is possible to ask you for a bank remittance slip (150 Canadian dollars). It will take about five weeks. China and Hongkong, I want to go by myself, and the materials are basically the same. This will be finished in a day or two. In Beijing, the materials are more complicated, as follows: two photos, bank deposit certificate, (preferably) letter from the school, transcript (possibly) application form, family member relationship form, personal education form, (please note that it is the same as when you go abroad) about RMB in 850 yuan, and you may be interviewed (unlikely). About two to three days.
