Start Your Academic Journey in Canada with Expert Legal Support in Brampton

Every year, Brampton welcomes thousands of international students aiming to study at top institutions like Sheridan College – Davis Campus and Algoma University at Brampton. However, gaining permission to study in Canada involves more than just an acceptance letter—it requires understanding and navigating complex immigration rules and deadlines.

At The Law Office of Ronen Kurzfeld, our dedicated student visa lawyers in Brampton assist students and their families throughout the study permit application process. We help you avoid common errors, prepare strong applications, and ensure you’re ready to begin your studies without delays.

What Is a Canadian Study Permit?

A study permit authorizes international students to live and study in Canada at a designated learning institution. While often called a “student visa,” the study permit itself does not grant entry to Canada. Depending on your nationality, you might also need a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) to enter the country.

Maintaining legal status in Canada requires submitting the right documents on time—both to enter and remain lawfully.

A refusal doesn’t mean the end. We analyze the refusal reasons and help you submit a stronger application next time.

Yes, most full-time international students can work up to 20 hours per week during semesters and full-time during breaks if your permit allows.

What financial documents prove my funds?

Bank statements, proof of tuition payments, letters of support, or GIC confirmations are required. We help tailor your financial proof.
