Documents checklist

SDS vs Non-SDS — which route from Chennai?

The Study Direct Stream (SDS) gives Chennai students the fastest Canadian study permit — typically 20 working days — provided you have IELTS 6.0 (no band below 5.5) or PTE 60, a CAD 20,635 GIC, first-year tuition paid, and a Letter of Acceptance from a DLI.

Non-SDS is available for everyone else, with a fuller financial dossier and 8–12 week processing. We assess your profile against both streams and pick the strongest submission path.
