BREAKING NEWS
IRCC announces the immediate closure of the Student Direct Stream(SDS).
Effective November 8, 2024, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has ceased accepting study permit applications under the Student Direct Stream (SDS).
Additionally, the Nigeria Student Express (NSE) stream for Nigerian study permit applicants has been discontinued.
Moving forward, all study permit applications must be submitted through the standard application process.
๐SDS was launched to expedite study permit applications for international students from 14 countries, including India, China, Pakistan, and the Philippines.
In SDS stream student had to provide proof of GIC (~CAD 20,635)
๐Applications submitted before 2:00 p.m. ET on November 8 will still be processed under SDS or NSE, while all new applications will go through the regular stream.
Begin Your Study Permit Application Early
The SDS traditionally offered higher approval rates and faster processing times compared to the standard study permit application process. As a result, students who intended to apply through SDS should now anticipate longer processing times.
Regular study permit processing times differ by country. For instance, as of November 8, the average processing time for applications from India is now 8 weeks.
โ
Now, all study permit applications needs to be submitted using the standard application process, to ensure equal and fair access for study permit application.
