Three additional Canadian provinces have begun issuing Provincial Attestation Letters (PALs) to international students seeking study permits. As of January 22, 2024, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) mandates provinces to issue PALs in line with their allocated study permit caps for 2024. New Brunswick, Saskatchewan, and Newfoundland and Labrador join British Columbia, Quebec, Alberta, and Manitoba to implement PAL systems. Other provinces and territories must start issuing letters by March 31. Details for Ontario, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Northwest Territories are still pending.
