Following the Canadian government’s recent announcements about upcoming and ongoing changes to the immigration system, there have been policy adjustments introduced that impact international students, including the requirement for international graduate program applicants to submit a Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL) as part of their study permit application.
Under the new regulations, all international graduate program applicants applying for a study permit after January 22, 2025, will require a PAL as part of their study permit application. International graduate program applicants who submitted their study permit application prior to January 22, 2025, are not required to submit a PAL.
