Can I Apply For Both US Student Visa And Canadian Student Visa?

Many students ask questions whether they can apply for both United States student Visa and Canadian student visa, and like how to apply Canada and US at the same time. Here, in this blog we will discuss these questions. First of all, every country has its set of rules for student visa, and if you are applying there, you should abide by the rules. It is quite normal that US student visa and Canadian student visa rules are not same. Yes there are some resemblances, but not exactly same. So whenever you are applying you need understand the pros and cons of the visa.

Now the question is why do you apply for US and Canadian student visa at the same time? When you have to put down non-refundable visa application at two colleges or universities, what are the benefits of applying so?

Needless to say, you have to deposit at the college or university fees at the United States in order to get your I-20 to even apply for an interview. Now paying visas for United States and Canada, and on or the other student visa would automatically become inactivated as early as you fail to pay tuition or show up on campus.

For your information, United States and Canada do trade information, so you technically taking risk or your career. The visa department can treat you as a fraudster and having both visa denied. In actuality, you can only attend one college or university after all. It would be wise if you pick one country, either US or Canada to study abroad and get a tourist visa to visit the other. That would make far more sense, legal and ethical at the same time. That would also make understandable to both the countries consulate departments.

See, you are not visiting both the country at the same time. It is impossible. You are visiting either United Sates of Canada to study, and if you find time or manage, then only you visit other country to travel for a few days. For example, you have a plan to study in Canada, not US, then applying to US visa doesn’t worth it, and at the same time, a student visa to a specific country will not allow you to travel or immigrate to other country. Having applied to multiple colleges or universities for same course and same duration, and having applied to multiple countries is not a good decision. There would be many legal issues unless you talk to an expert overseas education consultant.

Studying abroad is a dream for many international students. Let’s assume you also have a plan to study in US or Canada, but when you are visiting Canada for higher students with student visa, you are non-immigrant to the USA. The best thing would be – you go back to your home country after finishing your study and then apply for a fresh student visa for further study abroad.
