Canada updated study permit guidelines with new PAL/TAL requirements

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has announced important updates to the provincial and territorial attestation letter framework for study permits.

Effective November 4, 2025, IRCC has introduced several key clarifications affecting the 2025 allocation period, including revised protocols for PAL/TAL reuse, joint program applications, and processing criteria.

The updates also address exception cases requiring Organization/Entity IDs and provide sample documentation for the current cycle.

These changes aim to streamline application procedures as the department works within the established study permit cap framework.
