Hello,
When you uploaded your certificate of enrolment on GCKey, did you get an update on your profile that says they're reviewing what you uploaded?
If you sent it through webform, did they respond and let you know they received it and are reviewing it?
Hi,
I was unable to submit through GC key, so i mailed it to cpc ottawa and i sent it as a webform, 2 weeks later i got a mail that states the document is forwarded to the responsible office for their consideration
Did you get the Correspondence letter and OPR at the same time or was there a delay between them?
Hello,
1. Email VFS to buy label and pay fees
2. They respond in 48 hours with a payment link
3. Pay the fees, screenshot\save the confirmation email VFS back
4. They send you the label in 48 hours with a packing list
5. Bring the label to a FedEx location with the required documents
6. It took me a week to get my passport back after sending it out to the NY office.
7. I received POE letter when my passport is coming back.
Just to give you all an update. I was granted entry into Canada today. Now I have officially received my study permit. See below for my entire timeline and documents I presented.
