新老加拿大學生都需要收藏一下啊!大簽Study Permit新政!
加拿大新學簽(Study Permit)管理細則已經出臺,將於今年6月1日起實行,總結歸納了以下幾個重點和大家分享。
(一)、只有認證教育機構可以招生
To apply for a study permit on or after June 1, 2014, youwill need to have aletter of acceptance from a designated learning institution.
6月1號之後,申請學簽必須需要認證學校的錄取通知,非認證機構的學生將不能申請學簽。
A list of designated learning institutions at thepost-secondary level will beavailable on the CIC website by June 1, 2014
官方名單將在6月1號公布。
(二)、非認證學校的在讀生暫時不受影響,擁有三年暫緩期。
If you were issued a study permit before June 1 and arestudying at aninstitution that is not designated for international students:
you will be able to pursue the program of study thatyou are enrolled in for theduration of your current permit; and you will be able to renew your study permit in orderto complete your program,but not beyond June 1, 2017.
如果你獲得學簽是在6月1號之前,移民局還是允許你在非認證機構上學直至2017年6月1.
(三)、轉學必須主動通知CIC,並且只能在認證教育機構裡面轉。
You must notify CIC via your MyCIC account when you aretransferring from onedesignated learning institution to another, even if it isat the same level ofstudy.
If you are thinking about changing your institution oryour program, you needto ensure that you continue to meet the conditions ofyour study permit, aswell as the conditions that allow you to work, should youwish to work duringyour studies.
6月1號之後,你如果轉學,只能在認證機構裡面轉,而且你有責任通過mycic電子帳戶來通知移民局的轉學情況。
As of June 1, 2014, all study permit holders in Canadawill need to activelypursue studies. This means that:
if you hold a study permit, you must remain enrolledand make reasonable andtimely progress towards completing your program; and failing to do so could lead to your removal fromCanada.
Your educational institution will report to CIC on yourcontinued enrolment andacademic status. You may also be asked by an immigrationofficer to provideevidence of your continued enrolment and academic status.
新政後移民局將會通過認證教育機構的匯報來掌握學生的實際學習狀況,所以如果你入境不讀書註冊或者轉學不通知移民局的話,你很有可能會收到removal order 被遣送離境。
關於轉學具體結合幾種實際情況重點說明一下:
還有一種情況我發現需要說明一下,就是手上有兩個offer,還沒入境就已經打算轉學的。
具體出現這種情況的原因,可能是心儀學校的offer來的比較晚,來不及申請簽證,所以先用一個offer提前遞簽。
我發現這種情況不在少數,這種情況新政後有個簡單的方法來通知移民局。
那就是在機場入境換study permit時,跟CBSA的官員說實話,解釋你真正想去讀的學校是後來那所,一般情況下邊境署的官員會給你按照後來的offer出study permit。如果這樣,你在CIC系統裡面自動就更新了學校信息,新學簽也會註明新的學校。
不過這種做法可能會有一定的風險,到時邊境署的官員可能會詢問你這樣做的理由,事先要準備好,不要讓他們懷疑你入境讀書的動機真實性。
1、持有老學簽的,去年或者今年6月之前入境已經更換了學校。(中間沒有更換過學簽)
這種情況,6月1號之後最好通知CIC。為什麼說「最好」呢?理論上原來只要是post-secondary level的轉學就無需更換學簽或者通知CIC,另外學校也不會去主動向CIC報告學生註冊出勤狀況。但是新政後,所有認證學校都必須報告,這裡面針對第一種情況就會有潛在的問題出現。你原來轉學的學校還是否存有你的檔案?
如果學校還存有你的檔案,那它就會向CIC報告你缺勤或者沒有註冊,這時候你如果不主動向移民局報告你的轉學行蹤,很可能就會出現問題。
如果之前的學校已經刪除了你的檔案,那它就不會報告你的行蹤,你理論上也就不需要主動報告你移民局了。
所以我的建議是,為了避免無謂的麻煩,最好6月1號之後自己主動申報給CIC。
2、持有新學簽,6月1號入境後,轉學或者沒有去原學校報到註冊的。
此情況必須要主動向CIC申報。
3、持有老學簽,入境後轉到非認證學校學習的
情況類似第一種,如果你中間並沒有更換過學簽,你最好通知CIC,讓他們知道你在實際學習,哪怕是在非認證學校學習。
這種情況下的老學簽仍然有效,並可以申請延期,但只能到2017年6月1號。
4、學簽將具有工簽屬性
On June 1, 2014, if you hold a study permit but you havenot yet applied for anOff-Campus Work Permit, you are authorized to work offcampus without a workpermit as long as you meet the eligibility requirementsfor working off campus.
If you apply for a study permit on or after June 1, 2014,the conditionsrelating to your eligibility to work off-campus will be writtenon your studypermit.
6月1號之後,持有有效學簽可以合法打工。平時每週20小時,暑假假期可以全職。
對於6月1號之前頒發的老學簽,雖然頒發時上面沒有寫著可以打工的條件,但是新政後等同於新學簽,可以直接憑老學簽去service Canada申請SIN,合法打工。
對於6月1號之後頒發的新學簽,上面將會註明你可以合法打工的條件。
5、對於COOP實習工簽
New rules may affect your eligibility to work as part ofa co-op orinternship program:
Starting June 1, 2014, you will be able to work aspart of a co-op or internshipprogram only if the work is an essential part ofan academic, vocational orprofessional training program offered by adesignated learning institution.
To work as part of a co-op/internship program, youwill need a co-op work permitthat is separate from your study permit.
If you are studying English or French as a secondlanguage (ESL/FSL), orparticipating in general interest or preparatorycourses, you will not beeligible to work during your studies, unless youbecome eligible to apply for awork permit with a positive Labour MarketOpinion from Employment and SocialDevelopment Canada.
對於COOP實習工簽,新政後還是需要申請。對於ESL/FSL的學生,將不允許打工,學簽上面會註明此條件。
