Student Not Allowed Board Plane To Canada By Airline Officials
-
According to the IRCC operational bulletin’s latest update from July 6 2020, international students who already have a valid study permit, or were approved for a study permit on or before March 18, 2020, are exempt from the travel restrictions.
Your cousin’s application was approved on March 18, 2020 so she should be legally allowed to fly to Canada. However, IRCC had also advised that before boarding the plane, the person will need to pass a health check conducted by the airline staff. During the health check, your cousin may have shown some symptoms of covid-19, so she was not allowed to fly. I would suggest your cousin to get tested for covid-19 and if she is declared negative, she can try to fly to Canada again.
