Thank you
Will surely do (though it’s the exact same which everybody else has been getting)
Here you go :-
Hello,
While the COVID-19 pandemic has presented a number of challenges world-wide, Canada’s whole-of-government approach is aimed at protecting the health of Canadians while minimizing the economic and social impact of restrictions. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada has implemented a temporary two-stage process to provide an update to international students who have not yet been able to provide all the required documents or information needed to have their application fully assessed in time for the fall semester.
You are receiving this notification as an officer has reviewed the information and documents you provided to support your study permit application. Based on this preliminary eligibility assessment, your application has advanced to the next stage of processing.
Additional information and documentation may be required in order to continue processing your application. Ifwepreviouslyrequestedthatyoucompletebiometricsand/oramedical examination and submit a police certificate, please do so as soon as you are able to. If you have not received a request from us for additional information or documents, please await further instructions.
Once we have received all requested information and documents, we will complete our assessment of your application and we will inform you of the final decision (approved or refused) made on your application.
While you await a final decision on your application you may commence your studies online.
If you are a representative who has received this notification, please ensure to advise your client(s) of this important information.
Thank you,
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada
Thank you buddy
Don’t worry, even you will get a response very soon… I can totally feel how hard it gets waiting for it. Let’s hope for the best for you as well
All the best !!!
Thank you
& congratulations to you as well I know right ?! This is very risky but again they have been saying in webinars and all that the 2nd stage is for criminality & medical, etc
No point in stressing anymore buddy, the first stage getting approved does mean that a visa officer has considered us eligible to study in Canada. Don’t worry
Simply rock & roll your new course
Thanks a lot bro .....You have given me a ray of hopeBasically in my case, I already had an undergraduate degree & I wanted to pursue a post secondary level diploma (I chose the program because I genuinely wanted to pursue that course) so both of my refusals were for that particular course, after my 2nd refusal I realised that irrespective of my countless explanations they won’t pass me unless I opt for a post graduate level of study (my refusal reason in GCMS notes also stated ‘no progression of studies, furthermore that made them think that I’m not a genuine student’)
My overall IELTS score was 8 bands, GIC paid, 1 year tuition paid, in 2nd attempt I showed even more funds, course was also related
So the only logical reason I could see was the level of study !
So then I decided to pursue a tat different course (but related to my Undergrad field, so courses somewhat matched all three times). I then joined an entry level job in January to fill the gap & the job was of the same field as my new course.
So coming back to Letter Of Explanation, I didn’t follow a particular template or anything basically I drafted a 4 page SOP & I kind of presented it in a narrative form like a story based on my life & tried my level best to convince the Visa Officer that I genuinely want to study further in Canada
There were few headings under which I drafted the letter -
1. Introduction
2. Academic & Professional Background
3. Why A Transition To This New Course
4. Why I Chose Canada
5. Financial Capability
6. Future Plans
- I tried to remain as humble as possible and I also accepted that I was wrong to choose a diploma initially but now this new path is even better for me.
- I also talked about my earlier refusals and how I devoted my 6-7 months towards those two attempts.
-Tried to convey to the visa officer that the demand of personnels in this field is very high in India (my home country).
-I tried to present a very concrete career objective to make him realise that I am pretty darn serious.
-I also talked about how I wanted to simply gain international experience in the most diverse nation & eventually return back to India as I grew up in that country & I want to settle close to my parents.
-Also, I mentioned clearly why that particular college and that course, told them about the ways the particular course would help me achieve my career goals
The entire point is- each & everybody’s case is very different. Your reason for refusals might be completely different from mine, likewise your profile would also be different from mine but the thing is *just understand the refusal reason, decide it as much as you can & simply try to resolve that concern raised by the officer as smoothly & realistically as possible*
I would also suggest you to draft the Letter Of Explanation all by yourself because nobody else knows better about you better than you yourself. If you draft it all by yourself, I’m sure the person reading it would somehow understand your emotions & if everything makes sense would consider you genuine.
Draft it all by yourself then take help from your counsellor or somebody else who can correct the presentation basically (just make it fluent & grammatically correct)
Do a lot of research, read articles about study permit refusal reason & how to correct them, you can also watch tons of videos on YouTube for the same.
All the best buddy
What a wonderful outlook.Thank you buddy. I hope even you get a positive decision but please don’t feel let down if you get a refusal (if you get then there is surely some problem in your application which you haven’t rectified). So don’t feel let down with your decision … till the time you receive a decision make a plan for both the scenarios (kinda worked for me in order to divert my mental pressure in a little way).
But I really hope you get a positive response & achieve great things in life.
Also, always remember - EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON
Like in my case- I am grateful to the Visa Officer who refused me twice because if I had joined my college in January or April, it would have been a disaster during this Pandemic and everything.
Hahah well… that’s how we must get things done, right ;p ?
Two of my cousins had 3 and 1 previous rejections in past 1 year.
I am so glad that they got the AIP this time and all I said to them was "Its a blessing in disguise".
Tough times bring new and sometimes better opportunities.
I hope all the applicants get their visas soon.
I am residing in Canada and really appreciate Canadians & our Gov. how they controlled this covid situation responsibly. So it makes sense that Canadian gov. will take every action to keep the situation under control and at the same time they will definitely come up with a new approach to bring in the large influx of students+immigrants from outside Canada in coming months as their economy depends a lot on immigrants like us.
Best of Luck to all of you!

Did you mean that you got approved in your third attempt after you changed your program? You had not mentioned anywhere that you were rejected twice and got approved third time. I’m just inferring this from your writing. Please let me know, my brother recently got rejected and we are devastated. His situation is similar to yours. He has a bachelors degree, 3 yrs of work exp and he chose a diploma program. He even got AIP and started his studies online. We had paid full fee in advance. He has finished half of his program already. Not sure what should we do now.
Thank you in advance.
Create a separate thread and post picture proofs of getting refused after AIP, until you do that no one is going to believe your fantasy story on the internet.
