Third year uni in Canada - visa issues

55 replies

Radiatorvalves · 12/08/2025 22:32

Hello!

DS is due to start his third year studying at a Canadian uni in September. His flight is in About 2 weeks time. However the visa process has been tortuous. He’s submitted everything and has heard nothing. He’s not alone and of about 40 people on a group chat I think only one has received the student study visa.

It seems there is no one we can speak to about this. I’m planning to go to Canada house tomorrow, almost certainly fruitlessly, and I’m posting here to ask if anyone has any suggestions about how we could expedite this.

His own uni is not being helpful and he’s worried that the whole year will be a disaster.

if anyone has been through this or has any helpful ideas, we’d love to hear them.

Have been following this post as DD was waiting for a visa to another country. Hers turned up a couple of days ago and we have been heavily invested in this thread since then. Delighted for your DS @Radiatorvalves and everyone else who have now received their visas. Good luck to them all and hope they all have a fantastic year.
