Do I have to pay for BorderPass?

You’ll receive free access to BorderPass for your program at KPU. You only need to pay for required government fees (like biometrics and IRCC processing fees). You will also have free access to judicial review if your visa gets denied as long as your initial application was made through BorderPass.

My study permit application got denied, can BorderPass help?

Yes! If your initial study permit application was through BorderPass, KPU will cover the judicial review fee. If not, you'll be responsible for the fee, which is charged by BorderPass and may vary by case.

Can I opt out?

Yes, you can stop using BorderPass at any time. Please note that opting out will remove access to legal guidance, document tracking, reminders, Express Entry support, and other key services.

How does BorderPass help track my immigration journey?

You’ll receive a step-by-step overview of where you are in your immigration process. The system sends reminders, stores your documents securely, and shows you what’s next through your personalized BorderPass dashboard. More information is available in the BorderPass Knowledge Base.

Can BorderPass guarantee my application will be approved?

No. While BorderPass ensures your application is professionally prepared and reviewed by licensed lawyers, only IRCC can make the final decision.
