Statement 2024 calculation

1. Tuition fees, number of years of study

2. Cost of living (based on the number of students and dependents) for the number of years of study

For example, 1 year of study for a single student without an accompanying person.

1.18,000 x1

20.635 x1

Total = 18,000 + 20,635 = 38,635 CAD or 1.0 million baht

For example, study for 2 years, submit a student + 2 dependents (total 3 people)

1.18,000 x2 (number of years of study) 2. 31,593 (according to the table for 3 people) x2 (number of years of study)

Total = 36,000 + 63,186 = 99,186 CAD or 2.56 million baht

Basically, the statement should be the money in the account.

But you can submit additional evidence such as funds, stocks, savings bonds, land title deeds, cars, condos, or other things. The one that will be the most important when submitting will depend on the liquidity of that evidence, such as stocks or funds that can be sold on the market when needed. It should be money in the account, mainly 70%.

I would like to add that if you apply for a student visa yourself, you should have your own statement. If you don’t have your own statement and only have your sponsor’s, you risk having your visa rejected.

 I recommend putting your money on hold for at least 5 months before applying for a visa. For example, if you plan to apply in June, you should put 500,000-700,000 baht in your account in January. Put it on hold for now. Once you’re done, you can continue with your normal account activities.

Because if you put money in during March, April, May (in the case of applying for a visa in June), if it is a lump sum, larger than usual that goes into our account, we must show the source of the money, such as selling gold, selling land. But if the money has been in the account since January (more than 4 months after requesting a statement), we will not be asked additionally that there is an unusually large amount of money coming in. We can show a work certification + say that it is a saving when showing the source.

 All statements are submitted by both the sponsor and the student themselves. If there is a large sum of money in the statement in the past 4 months when applying for the visa, it must be shown where it came from.

For example, show a statement from January to April. If within the past 4 months, there is a larger sum of money than usual, such as 500,000 baht, you must show the source of the money, such as selling a house or other things.

But if you don’t have a large sum of money within the 4 months you applied, you don’t need to show additional documents (for example, if you have a lump sum of money on January 10, you can apply for a visa on April 11 without having to show the source of the lump sum).

If the student plans to apply for a spouse’s visa as well, when applying for the student visa, it is recommended to submit only the student’s statement. It is not recommended to use the sponsor statement of the spouse who plans to apply for a spouse’s visa, such as using the husband’s statement to sponsor his wife’s study.

For example, a follower sponsors a student. When the student applied for a visa, they used a statement to follow up. At this point, the embassy was confident that the student had enough resources to support them even though they did not work in the lese majeste industry because someone sponsored them. However, later, when they followed up, the person who used to be a sponsor let the student follow up with them. Therefore, the embassy was not confident that they had enough resources to support themselves and the student

If you are using a sponsor to cover expenses, you need to prepare three main documents:

1. Proof of Relationship – This document confirms the relationship between you and your sponsor.
   • If the sponsor is a parent, a birth certificate can be used to establish the relationship.
2. Source of Income – A document proving the sponsor’s source of income.
   • This can include a salary certificate or a company-issued income statement.
   • For other occupations, photos or other supporting evidence can be used.
3. Sponsor’s Bank Statement – A four-month statement of the sponsor’s bank account.
   • Important – The last month’s balance must meet the minimum required amount.

No, you cannot.
When applying to a college, you must submit an English Requirement document (as per the institution’s requirements).
If you do not meet the required score, your application will not be accepted.

There are three ways to submit proof of English proficiency:

1. IELTS – The required score depends on the institution and program. If the score does not meet the requirement, your application will be considered incomplete, and you will not be able to apply.
2. Duolingo – Similar to IELTS, you must meet the required score for the institution and program. If the score is below the requirement, the application will not be complete.
3. ILAC LOA – This is a Letter of Acceptance (LOA) from ILAC for an appropriate duration of study. It guarantees that you will meet the college’s English proficiency requirements before starting your college program.

You have two options:

1. Study at a college/university – You can enroll in an EAP (English for Academic Purposes) program and then continue directly into your college course without changing institutions.
   • Pros: You stay at the same institution throughout.
   • Cons: Higher tuition fees and limited flexibility if you want to switch colleges.
2. Study at a language institute partnered with a college/university – For example, ILAC (International Language Academy of Canada).
   • You can complete your English course at ILAC and then transition into college without needing to retake IELTS/Duolingo.
   • Pros: Lower tuition fees, flexible learning options (online, hybrid), and the ability to change colleges.
   • Cons: You will need to switch institutions after completing the English course.

Yes, if you plan to study English in Canada.
You can first submit an application to ILAC, pay the registration fee, and then use the acceptance letter to apply for college. You can choose to start your ILAC course after your visa is approved.

However, if you apply for a visa before meeting the English proficiency requirements, your spouse will not be eligible for a Spouse Open Work Permit.

• The primary applicant must meet the English requirements first.
• If not, dependents can only apply for a Tourist Visa instead.

Assessing your English level helps in planning your studies in Canada.

Most colleges require a minimum level of English proficiency before accepting applications.
By testing your English beforehand, you will know:

• Whether you meet the required level.
• How many weeks of additional English study you may need.

Since ILAC is Canada’s #1 English language school, its pathway program allows students to transition into top colleges and universities without needing IELTS or Duolingo again.

If your English score is below the required level, your college application will be conditionally accepted (LOA with condition).

• With a conditional LOA, you cannot apply for a Spouse Open Work Permit.
• You can only apply for a Tourist Visa for dependents.

Once you meet the English requirements and receive an unconditional LOA, you can apply for:

• Spouse Open Work Permit for your partner.
• Visitor Record for your child (allowing them to study for free based on the main applicant’s visa duration).
