I did. I had to drop out of Coop due to Covid. So I had to make an LOE regarding that. And I also submitted an unofficial transcript, and I just use the webform to send them my official transcript once I got it from the school.

As mentioned earlier I applied on 29th September and one of my friend applied on 17th September still no update for both of us....

That's true! Even I couldn't believe how fast it was. And my application was a bit complicated with the LOE and unofficial transcript. Hope you get it soon as well!

Hi Guys, My application got updated yesterday. It now says we are reviewing your eligibility. But I applied on 23 rd December. When can I expect the next update? I have applied with unofficial transcripts and submitted LOE stating that I will be able to provide an official transcript after 19th Jan.

Well I got this job after I applied for WP. health care isn't even my field but luckily found something in medical research. If for some reason my work permit doesn't have that condition explicitly mentioned, would I be eligible to work in healthcare?

No

Unoficial transcript have always been accepted, you need the completion letter though.
