Immigration Documents: After you Arrive
Renew your passport
If you need to renew your passport during your stay here, consult with your country’s embassy or consulate in Canada at least six months before your passport will expire. A list of foreign representatives in Canada can be found at the website.
Remember, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will not extend your study permit past the expiration of your passport. If both documents are expiring, renew your passport well in advance so that you have adequate time to extend your study permit, if applicable.
i If you are in a situation where your passport will be expiring soon and you need to extend your study permit, please reach out to an International Student Advisor, Immigration Specialist for advice. If you will be applying for a study permit extension, it is imperative that you submit your application to IRCC before your current study permit expires.
