The full guide
Study Permit needs a Letter of Acceptance from a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) first. Since the 2024 international student cap, most applicants also need a Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL) or Territorial equivalent (TAL) from the province/territory where the DLI is located — without one, IRCC returns the application as incomplete rather than processing it. As of 1 January 2026, master's and doctoral students at public DLIs are exempt from the PAL requirement; Quebec uses its own Quebec Acceptance Certificate (CAQ) instead of a PAL.
Cost: CAD $150 application fee, plus biometrics (CAD $85) and the GIC/first-year tuition itself
