How To Obtain A Canadian Student Visa 2022
Any international student that wants to study in Canada must first and foremost, obtain a Canadian Student Visa this 2022. Because you can not study in another country without a student visa for that country.
A student visa is non-immigrant visas that do not require the holder to obtain citizenship.
Before you apply for a Canadian student visa, you need an acceptance letter from a designated learning institution (DLI). And a valid passport or travel document. Also a proof of monetary support and any family members who accompanied you, while you’re in Canada.
Further more, it is very compulsory to acquire a student visa before moving to Canada to study. Note that you must meet all the necessary prerequisites in compliance with the Canadian Immigration Act and Regulations.

-Related to or a family member of an international representative in Canada, and the person is accredited by the department of foreign affairs and other federal bodies.

4. Begin the application for a student visa.
Once you have successfully gotten the acceptance/acknowledgment letter from your chosen college/university, you can proceed and apply for the student visa. You will be asked to provide some documents for this application. The documents differ from country to country, you can find out the documents required for your country from the Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) website.
5. All is done, get ready to move to Canada to study.
This is the final step. If you are an international student coming to Canada to study, you will receive an introduction letter and student visa at the Canadian port of entry only if your application is approved. You will only receive a visa if your application requires a visa to enter the country. These two documents will allow you to enter Canada and at the Port of Entry, you will receive your study permit.
