加拿大旅转学是否需要读语言课

首先我们看一下旅转学的概念, 申请人先在国内办理加拿大访问签证, 在入境后, 读一个语言课程, 在课程通过,拿到DLI的offer后可以直接在境内申请学签。

哪些人可以在加拿大境内申请学签

当前在加拿大,想要在加拿大申请学签,需要满足下列条件之一:

  • 申请人持有有效的学习或工作许可
  • 申请人的配偶,同居伴侣或父母持有有效的学习或工作许可
  • 申请人是就读中小学的未成年人
  • 申请人是交换生或者前来访问的学生
  • 申请人已完成短期课程或者学习项目(一般是6个月以内),并且这是DLI录取的先决条件
  • 申请人或配偶,同居伴侣或受抚养子女Temporary Resident Permit (TRP)有效期至少为6个月
  • 申请人是已申请了团聚移民,并且已经递交了PR申请
  • 申请人或配偶,同居伴侣或受抚养子女受到非强制遣返令的约束
  • 申请人是下列人员的配偶、同居伴侣或受抚养子女:
    • 加拿大队的运动员
    • 媒体成员
    • 神职人员
    • 在加拿大执勤的军事人员或
    • 经认可的外国代表
  • 申请人或其家庭成员是在加拿大的难民申请人

旅转学到底需不需要读语言课

加拿大移民局2014年6月1日颁布的新规要求,持有visitor visa 入境加拿大的,如果想在境内申请学签,必须完成入学所需的课程或学习计划, 并且这是一个先决条件。 这里通常指的是语言课

关于移民法案[R215(1)(f)(iii)]的具体规定是这么说的

Application after entry

  • 215 (1) A foreign national may apply for a study permit after entering Canada if they
    • (a) hold a study permit;
    • (b) apply within the period beginning 90 days before the expiry of their authorization to engage in studies in Canada under subsection 30(2) of the Act, or paragraph 188(1)(a) of these Regulations, and ending 90 days after that expiry;
    • (c) hold a work permit;
    • (d) are subject to an unenforceable removal order;
    • (e) hold a temporary resident permit issued under subsection 24(1) of the Act that is valid for at least six months;
    • (f) are a temporary resident who
      • (i) is studying at the preschool, primary or secondary level,
      • (ii) is a visiting or exchange student who is studying at a designated learning institution, or
      • (iii) has completed a course or program of study that is a prerequisite to their enrolling at a designated learning institution; or
    • (g) are in a situation described in section 207.

此外,有人问到这里说的TRP 临时居留许可持有人 难道不包括 TRV (Temporary Resident Visa)中的访问签证(visitor visa) 持有人吗?

  • you or your spouse, common-law partner or dependent child has a temporary resident permit (TRP) valid for 6 months or more
  • foreign nationals and their family members who hold a TRP, pursuant to subsection A24(1), that is valid for at least 6 months

我们可以看一下TRP的定义

TRP 是一种文件,授权不能入境或不符合移民和难民保护法或条例要求的人作为临时居民或永久居民进入或留在加拿大。

A TRP is a document that authorizes a person who is inadmissible or does not meet the requirements of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act or Regulations either as a temporary resident or as a permanent resident to enter or remain in Canada.

Temporary resident permit

  • 24 (1) A foreign national who, in the opinion of an officer, is inadmissible or does not meet the requirements of this Act becomes a temporary resident if an officer is of the opinion that it is justified in the circumstances and issues a temporary resident permit, which may be cancelled at any time.

注意:学习或工作许可,临时居留签证都不属于TRP的类别, TRP是随时可以被移民局取消的。
