Simply put, you can just apply for a study visa..
About applying for permanent residency through EE
EE is a program for applying for permanent residency, and a study visa is an application for your identity when you go to school, so they are two different programs and do not interfere with each other.
Canada EE, which is the Express Entry fast entry channel, has been reviewed very slowly since the outbreak of the epidemic last year, taking about 4-6 months. If you have work experience in the Middle East or relatively unstable areas, the approval time may be longer.
PPR stands for Passport Request. After the embassy approves your application, you will be asked to submit your passport. At this point, it is basically approved and they will start to prepare to put a one-time visa on your passport for entry. They will also mail back a Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR).,And some instructions for settling in Canada.
The visa and the CORP confirmation letter both have validity periods. Normally, you should land before the validity period. If you are outside Canada, you can only land at the border entry point. However, if you are in Canada, you can make an appointment to land by phone during the epidemic. If the validity period is very short and the epidemic is not subsiding and it is about to expire, use the web form to contact the Canadian immigration department. Now the epidemic in their country is serious, so the Canadian government does not recommend you to go there.
Apply for a study permit separately
During the EE program’s permanent residency application process, you can apply for a study permit separately. If you are asked during the application process whether you are applying for PR permanent residency, just answer the question based on the facts. Many of my classmates used their study permits to study in their first year, and their permanent residency was not yet approved. After half a year,Once approved, I went to the school to apply to transfer the international student tuition I had previously paid to domestic student tuition, saving a lot of money.
Additional reminder,When applying for a study permit, pay attention to whether the major you want to study requires COOP., that is, whether you need to work or intern off campus. If you do, you need to apply for a study permit with COOP, otherwise you cannot participate in off-campus internships. If you have already submitted an application for a study permit without COOP, it doesn’t matter. You can apply again on the same application website when you arrive in Canada. I remember it is free.
