Saskatchewan’s study permit allocation grew by 25.4 percent to 15,054 in April. It is expected to result in around 7,200 study permits for international students in the upcoming year. Advanced Education Minister Gordon Wyant stated that international students are vital for economic growth and labor market needs.
IRCC has also added a new requirement for provincial attestation letters (PALs), which require most new post-secondary international students at the college or undergraduate level to submit a PAL along with a letter of acceptance from a post-secondary institution when applying for an international study permit. Saskatchewan is one of the first provinces to implement an automated system to facilitate study permit applications from international students in 2024.
To date, the Ministry of Advanced Education has successfully processed over 1,200 PALs from 11 different postsecondary institutions. The ministry successfully launched an automated PAL system quickly using MyCreds, a national information technology platform for official academic documents that already collaborates with provincial education and universities. New Saskatchewan International Student program applications are on hold until January 2026.
