Ok, I just got an update from CIC Singapore (I personally feel that it is the worst system in the world as a G8 nation. Their timeline is long, confusing and frustrating. I really hope they improve. US study visa only take 5 days. Not sure why is to hard for Canada to make a decision. On the flip side, they have the best education system, more importantly my kids will be exposed to a great environment. So it is good to wait. sigh)

The email they responded informs that my application is currently pending initial review. As my course is in Winter 2018, my application will be on hold and reviewed again in Fall 2017. They will process all my applications (kids and hubby) together.

Not sure if it means that I will be rejected or approved but this delay is quite frustrating.

So it is not weird because your admission is for winter and there is quite long time remain. Dont be worry about your visa. You will get that on time.

I am just wondering that if the initial review is pending for your case so why they asked you to do your medical?

Hi Raghuk, I had the option to complete an upfront medical exam. So I did it for me and my family to save time. I think it depends on the citizenship. Some nationalities are allowed to complete upfront medical and some are requested. Anyhow, I also dropped them a note requesting them to expedite if possible as my husband has to provide 3 months notice period to his company and we are trying to avoid traveling in Dec/Jan due to the fact that we are from a tropical climate and our kids have never been in a cold climate. What do you think are our chances?
