Study in Canada
CAQ application
Regulated consultant, RCIC R520189
The Quebec Acceptance Certificate (CAQ) is issued by MIFI. It is generally required before you apply to IRCC for a study permit to study in Quebec.
The Quebec Acceptance Certificate (CAQ) is an authorization from the Government of Quebec for international students who undertake a program of study at an institution located in Quebec.
Unless a MIFI exception applies, the CAQ must be obtained before the study permit application to IRCC. An incomplete or non-compliant application can delay the entire pathway.
We prepare the application against MIFI requirements (letter of acceptance, proof of funds, identity and, where applicable, documents specific to an applicant already in Canada).
At NK immigration, our commitment is to guide you with professionalism, transparency and rigour, so that every stage of your project is prepared with care and you can move forward with confidence.
