my study visa and my children attending school
Can anybody tell me what the procedure is to register my children into high school for the duration of my study visa?
I am due to start a 2 year nursing course at colombia college in alberta commencing Jan16 and I am struggling to find out how I register my children. According to the CIC website they are entitled to free education and don't require a study visa themselves but I am not at all sure how that system works.
I think my husband is also enttiled to work on an open work permit while I study. Do I need to include him on my application for my study visa or should he apply separately once I have my own visa?
Really hard to get this information from CIC.
Thank you so much.

You won't get information on living in Canada from CIC. Registering children for school is done with the school district in which you are going to live. If you have an address then go to that school district and they will sort it out.
