I applied my application on 17 July, I got admission in dental care and administration at Confederation College, Thunder bay for September 2017 intake. I was really late for applying, as processing time is mentioned 54 days for Pakistan on the CIC website. I'm vworried, will my application be processed in due time as I applied about 45 days before the start of my classes? Please anyone share your experiences.

Oh okay. I applied paper based. Unfortunately, this course only takes September intakes and I can't take it next year.

Hello, thanks for sharing your experience and congratulations on your visa approval.

That's a pretty long timeline though. Did u apply in jan 2017 for sept 2017 intake? Also u said u "passed Medicals". Is there any status update after you submit you application? Coz though I did my pre Medicals before I submitted my application online and uploaded the emedical form that I received from the doctor along with my online application as a proof of my medical exam, my application status after online submission says " you don not need medical exam. We will let you know of this changes"
Did this happen in you case as well?
And how long it took for the background check status to change?
I applied for Summer Semester in January hoping to get the visa in 4 months but due to slow processing I only got my medical request in June. I deferred my admission to Fall 2017 as a result. I got a new offer letter a few weeks later. I also did not link my account online as my application was paper based and I had no data to link my application online. It was only after the medical request I received in early June that I was able to link my application online as the medical request form also had my UCI and my application number. I checked in July that I had passed the medical exam and they were processing my background check. Background checks takes 4-5 weeks to complete. Have you submitted your passport or waiting for passport request?

I believe that for all Pakistani national the situation is same, they take too much time in background check etc
I applied from Sweden online on 12 June Vfs London and got Passport request on 2nd August, although the timeline from Nordic country is not more than 3 weeks but it took me 7+ weeks to get decision

All the best mates

Visa officers do check previous education completed along with program of study the candidate has applied. There is no age limit if the gap in the years of study can be justified. Otherwise there is a high chance of rejection.

If you have a copy of your application than you can link it online on CIC website. Its not necessary to link the application online but you can track your application progress.
