Students who go to Canada to study must go for several years. If they are going to study for a longer time after graduation, what should they do about passport renewal?
How to deal with the expiration of the Canadian study passport?
1. Complete the Passport/Travel Permit/Seaman’s Certificate/Return Certificate Application Form of the People’s Republic of China in advance.
Three passport photos (photo requirement) 3. The original passport and a copy of the page with my photo (the original will be invalid and returned after new procedures are completed, and the copy will be retained by the embassy) 4.
Add the original and photocopy of valid visa or residence permit (the original shall be returned after review by the staff, and the photocopy shall be retained by the embassy) 5.
In advance, complete the “Passport (Identity) Verification Form of the Applicant by the Embassy in Canada” (only if the original passport is damaged and cannot be identified).
Copy of passport extension page (only if the passport has been extended) 7. Copy of passport annotation page (only if the passport has been added with name) 8.
Transitional photographs of changes in appearance (major changes only) 9.
Original proof of continuous residence in Canada for less than three years or original proof of non-naturalization from the HOME OFFICE of Canada (only if you have obtained permanent residence in Canada).
The above two kinds of documents must be used within 2 months from the date of issuance. If expired, please issue a new certificate.
Items 5 to 9 above are optional for your own situation.
Application for renewal of passport because the validity of the original passport is less than 12 months, the visa is less than 2 pages with 4 sides, or the appearance has changed greatly is called normal renewal.
This usually takes about 20 working days.
The cost is 30 pounds.
An application for renewal of a passport without expediting because the original passport has been damaged or expired or for any other reason other than the above is called an abnormal renewal.
This usually takes 35 working days.
The cost is 65 pounds.
There is no urgent item.

At present, the study visa issued by most countries to international students will not exceed the validity period of the passport held by the international student.
This leads to a problem known as the “scheduling problem”.
The reason is clear. The passport is about to expire. The visa is about to expire.
There is not only a problem of “keeping up” with the validity of the two, but also a problem of “sequencing” in the process of obtaining a new passport and visa.
Because the study visa will expire soon, international students need to apply for a new study visa. One of the most basic conditions is that students need to hold a passport valid for more than six months, namely a new passport.
In fact, international students need to control their time and arrange the application within one year.
If international students are faced with the problem of returning home during the holiday period, I sincerely advise you not to be greedy about the length of the holiday, be sure to apply for a new passport and a new study visa before returning home.
Visa renewals are mainly available to two groups: First: primary and secondary school students.
Visa applications for primary and secondary school students are granted for only one year at a time and need to be renewed annually before enrolling in university.
The second category: get language conditional admission of college students.
The Canadian Embassy rules for the first stage of language learning applicants to strictly control the duration of the visa, basically only one year visa.
Then you need to submit an application for renewal whether you continue your language study or enroll in the regular course.
Canada is a country that values integrity. If you do not renew your visa in time and overstay in Canada, there will be very serious consequences.
What are the big and the small?
A Study Permit, or Study Permit, is a document issued by customs when a student enters Canada for the first time to prove that he or she is a legal student in Canada.
The VISA attached to the student’s passport permits the student to enter and exit Canada.
With a visa, students can enter Canada;
You can study legally in Canada with a large signature.
Also, the size of the TAB is time-sensitive.
For students applying for a Canadian visa for the first time, the validity periods of the large visa and the small visa are generally the same.
It is recommended to take a careful look at the validity of the visa and roughly estimate the time to submit the application for renewal when you get the visa.
What is the order of renewal?
The order of renewal is as follows: under the premise that the validity of the large and small visas are consistent, the application for renewal of the large and large visas should be submitted in Canada first. The new large and large visa will be sent to the student’s residence in Canada. After the large and large visa is approved, the visa application for renewal of the small and large visas should be submitted in Canada or in China.
When do you start preparing for renewal?
The processing period for a large visa varies from 1 to 4 months. The Embassy recommends that you submit your renewal application for a large visa at least three months before the expiration of the large visa and at least 30 days before the expiration of the large visa.
During the visa process, students can legally study in Canada and await the outcome, even if the visa has expired.
The validity period of the large visa will not exceed the validity period of the passport, so you should pay attention to the validity period of the passport before renewing it.
If the passport is valid for less than one year or not enough to meet the later period of study, you should renew the passport first.
