Congratulations & thanks for sharing

Can you please tell us whether or not there was an update in your GC Key account (like review of eligibility passed) after getting this AIP mail ?

 

[SyedZeeshanHaider]

Congratulations , is pakistans files processed in Pakistan or another country?

They are processed at IRCC AbuDhabi

I don't understand .... if people (like the person who got their visa in this thread) have submitted complete applications, why on earth would they bother with this AIP stuff and not issue them the final approval? It's not like any more documents are required as the biometrics and medical are done.

This 2 stage decision making phase is only limited to Fall Intake because of so many applications, admissibility cannot be assessed very quickly due to limited staff i guess, some countries do not even have their VAC's open and likewise travel restrictions make it more difficult to issues final visas at this time

 

[A1S]

Oh, I do understand that that might be true. Its just that way to many people on this forum are pretending as if an AIP is the be all end all for study permit applications, even when IRCC stated in their webinars, press releases and their website that an AIP doesn't guarantee a final approval for the study permit. So what if someone starts their studies online after receiving an AIP, and then their final decision regarding the study permit comes back negative? In that case that person just lost tens of thousands of dollars for no good reason. It just seems to me that for complete applications, they should just make a final decision rather than complicate the process, both for themselves, and for the students.
