DISCLAIMER FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENT:

As an international student, to maintain your status in Canada, you must notify Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (“IRCC”) regarding changes to your Study Permit, which was initially issued to study with Beta College of Business and Technology (“BCBT”), a Designated Learning Institution (“DLI”). Withdrawal from the program in which you were enrolled will fail to comply with the conditions of your study permit, as stipulated in Section 221 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (“IRPR”). Hence, you will no longer be in compliance with Subsection 220.1(4) of IRPR.

In addition, the college will immediately report to IRCC that you are no longer enrolled in the program of study. Subsequently, IRCC has the right to cancel your study and work permits, even if they do not receive your physical documents. In other words, the permits you currently hold automatically become invalid within the period allowed by IRCC.

It would be best if you left Canada within the days IRCC allows, starting from your last day of classes, unless you enroll at a different institution and change your Designated Learning Institution (“DLI”). Also, be advised that if you are not pursuing further studies in Canada, you must return your study permit and work permit to Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (“IRCC”) at the address below:

IRCC 25 St. Clair Ave E, Suite 200 Toronto, ON M4T 1M2 Intersection: St. Clair & Yonge

Additionally, it would be best if you ceased all work and/or studies. Suppose you continue to work from now on. In that case, it will be considered as working illegally in Canada, which could lead to your removal from Canada, deportation, and/or ban from entering Canada for up to five (5) years.
