Canada Study Visa Processing Time

The processing time for a Canada study visa, also known as a study permit, varies depending on various factors, including the volume of applications being processed, the complexity of your application, and your country of origin.

According to the Canadian government’s website, the current estimated processing time for a study permit application is approximately 20 weeks (or 4-5 months) if you apply online. However, processing times can vary depending on individual circumstances, and some applications may take longer to process.

It is recommended that you apply for your study permit well in advance of your planned arrival in Canada to allow for sufficient processing time. Additionally, it is important to submit a complete and accurate application with all required documentation to avoid delays.

You can check the status of your application online using the Canadian government’s Check Application Status tool once your application has been submitted.
