Get a study permit extension
If you want to extend your stay in Canada as a student, you must apply for a study permit extension. You should apply before your current study permit expires.
To extend your stay in Canada, you must:
-have a valid study permit; and
-meet the initial requirements for a study permit; and
-still be a student in good academic standing at a DLI; and
-have completed and passed the courses you registered in; and
-not have worked more than 20 hours per week during regular academic sessions; and
-still meet the other conditions in your study permit.
Check the expiry date of your current study permit
Before you start the process of renewing or extending your Canada study permit, it is important to check the expiry date on your current document. If your study permit will expire in the next few months, you should start the renewal process as soon as possible to avoid any potential disruptions to your studies in Canada.
Determine if you need to renew or extend your study permit
The next step is to determine whether you need to renew or extend your study permit. If your current study permit does not expire within the next few months and you still have valid status in Canada, you may not need to take any action. However, if your study permit is set to expire soon, you will need to take action to renew or extend it.
If you are unsure about your status in Canada, you can check with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) for more information.
Important things to remember when your study permit expires
- You must leave Canada or apply to extend your stay before your study permit expires.

a recent photo (taken in the last six months);
your COPR (if you have one);
the extension fee; and
any other documents required.
- You must make sure that you have a valid study permit before you can resume studying in Canada. If your study permit expires, you will need to apply for a new one.
