Finally somebody from Brazil :)

I didn't know anything about it and I don't know where my application is being processed.

I already have a study permit approval, but I changed the DLI and reapply through SDS, but I'm still waiting for an update.
Cool! When did you apply under the SDS?

Hope you're able to get your approval soon again. I'm sending you our Telegram group link via DM.

Hello friends, the time has come up where I need to defer to Jan 2022 as I can't wait much. I had email conversation with one of the Head Representative of the college. Initially he said that keep us posted when I informed him that I still can't register because my study permit is yet approved. Later in the day, he just said me that do it at the earliest regarding deferment.

Though I told him that I will wait for this week and will send email for deferment but I feel that it would be no point in taking risk and making the situation very crunchy. The time has come where I should go for deferment within a day or two and rest everything in the hands of the Almighty.
Just wondering which would be better Jan 2022 or March 2022.
Its totally depends on college defer policy. Some college only allow 1 to 2 defer but others ok with multiple defers. So, check with the college. If college allow you to make multiple defers then defer for Jan 2022 otherwise March 2022. GOOD LUCK

Since your application is already in, I suggest Jan 2022. Although I am tempted for Mar 2022 looking at IRCC handling of apps. I suggest spending around 1 hr on youtube pros and cons between Jan and Mar intakes. I would suggest Jan 2022. When is your application lodged and what is the current status?

Hello, everyone. I was told today by the Consulate General of Canada in Brazil that my application is being processed at CPC Edmonton because I applied under the SDS (their words exactly). Are all your applications being processed there, too?

During the past week I've seen some August and early-September SDS applicants from my country receiving their decisions from Edmonton. Sadly, they were all refusals (a total of 5), which is very concerning. What all of them had in common was that the officer was not satisfied they'd leave Canada after their studies based on purpose of visit.

Have you guys been seeing this justification a lot, too? Apparently, most of these applications I mentioned would not have been refused if they were being processed in Brazil, so it must have something to do with how Edmonton's office analyzes study permit applications. This is what local immigration consultants are saying. They are still trying to figure this out, since it's only been 3 months since Brazil was included in the list of SDS-designated countries and started having online applications analyzed in Canada.
We cant really tell, its a mess. But keep your hopes up....dont give up

Hello there, I've been following this forum for years without any contribution, but now I want to share some details about my app and to follow up some of yours as well:

SDS from Bogotá Colombia (supposed to be responded within 20 calendar days, right now I'm in day 75 LOL, don't know what to think)
GIC with CIBC, 1st-year tuition paid. IELTS 7.5 general score. Fall intake 2021.
Classes started Sep 07,2021. Currently studying and in midterm exams in Sheridan College. (Sheridan gave me the opportunity to stay studying and if refused will get a refund)

Visa submitted 11 August 2021
Biometrics: from previous application refused 2020
Medical not required in my country
Eligibility started Oct 15, 2021, in the IRCC phone line says "We're reviewing whether you meet the requirements". Before that, it said, "your eligibility review has not started yet".
Background check: "In review".

Sent webform to Canada vis office as in my local visa office said that all SDS apps are being reviewed in Canada, not in home embassies. But over the phone line, I finally got an agent saying that it was being reviewed in my home country, and my home country says the opposite. The webform was responded 3 weeks later with a general response about Aghanistan priority and keep following up the website (useless webform).

No progress in the last 2 weeks, also heard about other students submitting NON-SDS in mid-September (1 month after me) and getting their approvals.

Thanks for your thoughts and suggestions. I'll be updating ASAP once get any update.

As a quick update: Forgot to mention this is my forth re application, as I've been refused 3 times for study permit, long and boring story. Hope this time will be the more than expected approval. Luck for all u
Ohh man, what a mess. You are in much more pain than us. Good luck....
