Study Abroad

Most advisors recommend starting the GIC process at least 1 to 2 months before you plan to submit your study permit application. This is to leave room for bank processing delays

An initial lump sum (roughly CAD $2,000-$4,000) is released when you activate your account in person - followed by monthly instalments for the rest of the year, plus the interest your GIC earned.

Most participating banks issue the certificate within roughly 5 to 10 business days after you complete the wire transfer and paperwork.
