Our licensed Immigration Advisors are here to help with questions related to:
- Study Permits;
- Working while studying;
- Co-op Work Permits; and
- Post-Graduation Work Permits.
This service is only available to currently enrolled CapU students who have an active CapU student ID.
As we receive a high volume of inquiries, please be sure to review the International Student Welcome Guide on eLearn for answers to your questions before requesting to speak with an immigration advisor.
There are two ways to connect with an Immigration Advisor, through our drop-in advising via zoom/phone, or at one of our in-person drop-in sessions.

Use the link below to connect with us via Zoom or phone. The registration waitlist opens and closes 15 minutes prior to each session. However, it may close earlier if we cannot accommodate all registered students due to high demand. You must check in during the available hours using your CapU student ID.
Enter your phone number to receive text notifications about the Zoom link and/or your spot in the queue. To receive a call back, please provide a local British Columbia phone number. SMS messages and data rates may apply.
Students without a local British Columbia phone number should join via Zoom.
