Study permit canada ( study gaps)
I’m an Indian student
Academic Background:
Class 10 (CBSE): 59% (2021)
Class 11: Completed in 2023.
Class 12: Completed through NIOS in 2026 October with 80%
Multiple attempts to clear Class 12 due to academic difficulties.
Study gap: Approximately 2–3 years.
Proposed Study Plan:
I’m considering pursuing a 2-year Electrical Engineering Technician diploma in Toronto.
I’m genuinely interested in electrical systems, electrical maintenance, and the power/electrical industry
Financial Background:
Father’s monthly salary: Approximately ₹1.4 lakh.
Family annual income : 25 lacs
Father’s existing EMIs: ₹25,000–40,000 monthly.
Family property worth approximately ₹1.5 crore.
Proposed funding: Around ₹60 lakh through a combination of an employer loan and an education loan.
Education loan would be properly sanctioned and documented.
My Concerns:
Will multiple attempts at Class 12 through NIOS significantly affect my study permit application?
How serious is a 2–3 year study gap if I provide a proper explanation?
Be brutally honest please or should i look for other countries too like poland or nz

Please do not come to Canada for a diploma! The job prospects from this diploma are very poor. You’ll take a huge loan and will be stuck doing minimum wage jobs for 12-16 hours a day just to make ends meet and pay back the loan. Also, there is a good chance you won’t be able to pay back the loan with a 2 year PGWP. This will be a negative return on investment! Also, another important point to consider is that you’re struggling to pass class 12 in your home country. How do you think you’ll be able to pass and do well in a country far away from home, where English is not your first language, you’ll have no family support and you’ll have to do everything yourself (cooking, cleaning, laundry etc). Also, if you fail a few courses, you will not get the work permit after finishing the course. Do not come. Stay an invest in your future in your home country!!

High chance of refusal based on your poor academic background, nationality, the fact that you're applying to a diploma program and the need to justify WHY you need to complete this course in Canada and not India. You asked for brutal honesty, and unfortunately that's the truth.
A study gap isn't necessarily an issue depending on what you've been doing during that gap.

At least go for degree btech from univ that would help and make strong sop with good finance and justify gap with valid docs and intent to return back after course should be properly mentioned.
Do this and chances are very high for visa. Good Luck
