According to IRCC, there is no set time frame for you to arrive in Canada before you begin your studies. Rather, it is recommended that you arrive to give yourself a reasonable amount of time to prepare before you start studying.
Please keep in mind that you are not allowed to work on or off campus until you begin your studies in Canada.
In addition to completing the Emergency Contact form in iCent, once you complete the Airport Arrival form, you will be emailed a Travel Support Letter.
You do not need to complete a separate form to request a travel support letter.
