Documents Needed

  • Client Information section

    Where to upload documents (like IELTS/Duolingo scores, transcripts, resume, SOP) when there's no dedicated section for them.

Step-by-Step

A member applying non-SDS wasn't sure where to upload IELTS, Duolingo, academic transcripts, resume, and SOP, since there wasn't a separate dedicated section for these documents on the application.

What the thread clarified:
  1. Upload these documents under the Client Information section if there's no dedicated section specifically for them — this was the direct recommendation for documents without their own upload slot.

  2. There's genuine uncertainty about whether Schedule 1 (the Temporary Resident Permit schedule form) needs to be filled out alongside your study permit application — this specific question was raised twice in the thread but never conclusively answered, so verify this directly with a professional or IRCC's own guidance rather than assuming either way.


The practical takeaway: for a non-SDS application, upload documents without a dedicated section (IELTS/Duolingo, transcripts, resume, SOP) under the Client Information section — but double-check separately whether Schedule 1 needs to be filled out for your specific situation, since this wasn't clearly resolved in the community.

Dos, Don'ts & Tips

  • Do: Upload documents without a dedicated section (like test scores, transcripts, resume, SOP) under the Client Information section.
  • Tip: Verify separately whether Schedule 1 needs to be filled out for your specific application — this wasn't clearly resolved by the community.
