I find it quite frustrating that I applied on July 4th with no update whilst they started accepting august applications. The webforms are no help either.

Did you submit complete application with a client information? That might be the reason why?

I got approved yesterday!
Applied : Aug 11
Approved : Nov 12
Received a ghost update yesterday at noon. Checked again at 1545 the status was still submitted. When I log in again at mid night, it became approved.

Thank you for all your kind words and those who shared their timeline. You made this journey more tolerable!

Did you send webform by any chance?
I sent 3 webforms in total. The last one was sent in September. All webforms are questions related to my application and documents not required by officer. I never received any responds to my question but when I called help centre last Friday, they said they documents were attached to my application.
