For legal and tuition status changes to take effect for the current term, all proofs of citizenship, requests for Quebec residency, and immigration status changes must be received by the end of the last day of classes for that current term. Claims completed after that date will only serve to update your status and lower your fees for the following term.

Newly-admitted students: ID cards will not normally be issued without your immigration documents having been received (ie. proof of Canadian citizenship, or international status such as your CAQ or Study Permit). Your ID card is essential to use many services on campus, and to sit for your final exams.

If your permanent code has not been issued by October 15 (fall term) or February 15 (winter term) we will put a hold on your record, which will prevent you from registering or dropping any courses, and which will prevent you from obtaining your official transcript, until your record has been put in order. For students in short programs, this action may be taken earlier in the term.

The Student Accounts Office wants you to be aware that if your submission to update your legal and tuition fee status will not be completed before their听fee payment deadline, you should request a fee deferral in order to avoid any interest or late payment charges. More detailed information on this on the Student Accounts听website.

Unfortunately, you are not eligible until you officially receive the Canadian citizenship certificate. Until that time, you will be assessed international tuition. Fees adjust from the term during which the documentation is received and entered to the record. No retro-active changes can be made, as per the Quebec Ministry of Education's regulations.

Please refer to the International Student Services website.

Due to the regulations governing the creation of your Quebec Permanent Code (required for all enrolled students in the province of Quebec), 海角社区 cannot accept a copy of your Canadian passport in support of your Canadian tuition status, except in cases where you already have a valid Quebec Permanent Code.

Please refer to the main page and select "Other provinces and territories" in order to view which documents are acceptable to prove your Canadian tuition status.

In most cases, a student is not eligible. A student must become a permanent resident of Canada first before being able to prove Quebec residency. You will be assessed international tuition until your permanent residency of Canada is officially approved. The legal status change will only be made as of the present term of registration. No retro-active changes will be made. Note: there are some specific CSQs that are eligible for an international student fee exemption but they must have the appropriate category and processing center (see exemption page for all the requirements). If the CSQ does not have them, then you are not eligible for the exemption.
