Canada’s world-class education system makes it a prime destination for international students. A Canadian Study Visa allows students from across the globe to pursue academic programs in Canadian institutions. Whether you’re looking for undergraduate, graduate, or diploma programs, a Study Visa provides the legal authorization for you to stay and study in Canada. Additionally, a Study Visa can often lead to post-graduation work opportunities and pathways to permanent residency.

At Kaizon Immigration, we provide personalized support throughout the entire application process—from selecting an institution and gathering required documents to applying for your Study Visa and preparing for your journey to Canada. Our team of experts is here to ensure a seamless experience, allowing you to focus on achieving your educational dreams.

SDS Category

The Student Direct Stream (SDS) is a faster visa processing option for international students from specific countries. This streamlined process is designed for students who can meet additional requirements, such as upfront proof of funds and language proficiency. Countries eligible for SDS include India, China, the Philippines, Vietnam, and several others.

Benefits of SDS:

• Faster processing times (typically within 20 calendar days)
• Simplified document requirements
• Increased chance of approval for students who meet the program’s higher standards

To qualify for SDS, students must provide:

• Guaranteed Investment Certificate (GIC) of CAD 10,000
• Proof of full payment of the first year of tuition
• Proof of English or French language proficiency (e.g., IELTS, TEF)
• Acceptance letter from a designated learning institution (DLI) in Canada

Non-SDS Category

The Non-SDS Category is available for students from all countries, offering flexibility in document submission and lower upfront financial requirements compared to the SDS stream. While processing times may be longer than SDS, students who meet the visa requirements can still successfully obtain a Study Visa under Non-SDS.

Key requirements for Non-SDS:

• Proof of funds to cover tuition and living expenses for the first year
• Letter of acceptance from a Designated Learning Institution (DLI)
• Medical exam and police certificates (if required)
• Proof of sufficient English or French language proficiency, based on the institution's requirements

Although the Non-SDS process can be more comprehensive, Kaizon Immigration ensures your application is completed accurately and in compliance with immigration laws. Our experts will assist you in gathering documents, reviewing applications, and addressing any concerns related to your visa status.
