  • Immigration information

    It is strongly recommended to begin the immigration and study permit application process as early as possible, as it may take several months to complete. To support this process, Ontario Tech has partnered with BorderPass, a platform designed to streamline immigration application procedures. By registering with BorderPass, students gain access to a team of professionals, including Canadian immigration lawyers, who provide assistance with study permit applications, electronic travel authorizations (eTA), and temporary resident visas (TRV).

    For more information about immigration documents and BorderPass, visit the International Office's website.

    Please refer to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) for the most updated immigration information.
