Custodianship
Minors coming to Fanshawe Toronto@ILAC to study without a parent/legal guardian will need additional documents if they are less than 17 years of age. The minor must be cared for by a responsible adult in Canada, known as a custodian. In some cases, a custodian may also be needed for minors between 17 and 18. This will be at the discretion of an immigration officer.
Effective February 1, 2017, custodianship services are available through Fanshawe Toronto@ILAC, if required, for a one-time application fee of $250. *Note: This fee is non-refundable.
We require the standard custodianship declaration form as well as a signed agreement. Please request the agreement by email: [email protected]
These documents must be completed and sent to: [email protected]
For more information about custodianship, please visit the Canadian government website
What to Look for When Choosing an Educational Agent
Students can decide whether or not they want to use an educational agent. Agents do not have special access to our programs and services – and cannot guarantee your admission to Fanshawe Toronto@ILAC or guarantee you a study permit. Fanshawe Toronto@ILAC cannot monitor the business practices of all independent educational agencies, so please note that using an agency is the sole responsibility of the student and his/her family.
- Talk to friends and family living in Canada;
- Ask any potential agent to show you their valid Fanshawe College Agency Certificate and/or Agreement;
- Discuss the services they provide and the fees for each service – and ask for the information in writing;
- If it sounds too good to be true, you can always ask Fanshawe Toronto@ILAC about it;
- Do not leave original academic documents, passport or tuition fee payments with the agent;
- Tuition fees are always made payable to Fanshawe Toronto@ILAC – never to the agent;
- You own the original “Letter of Acceptance” to Fanshawe Toronto@ILAC – and the agent must give you the original document;
If you have any questions or concerns about any educational agents, please email:
