What should a letter of explanation for a Canadian study-permit application include?

A useful letter of explanation connects the student's background, chosen program or school, funding and future plan in a clear, credible account. It should also address any facts an officer may reasonably question.

Do not repeat every document. Explain why the study plan makes sense, identify supporting evidence and address gaps, changes of field, past refusals or large recent deposits honestly and concisely.

What to verify

Check the current IRCC document list, the school's eligibility and the consistency of the study plan and finances.

Planning advice

Use current official school and IRCC information. Keep all records consistent and retain written confirmation of key decisions.
