Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has issued a critical correction to its program delivery instructions regarding study permits for students destined to Quebec.

The update clarifies that Quebec Acceptance Certificates (Certificat d'acceptation du Québec or CAQ) issued before December 6, 2024, not 2025 as previously stated, may be reused when applicants change educational institutions at the same level of study.

This policy adjustment ensures accurate processing of study permit applications and provides clearer guidance for international students and institutional stakeholders navigating Quebec's distinct immigration requirements within Canada's broader study permit framework.
