    Waiting on student VISA, is it possible to chase for an update?

    Thanks for the support everyone! Just being able to speak to all of you helps a lot. I received an email response today to my email I sent yesterday saying 'your application is under review' but that was it :( Hopefully someone is looking at it now. Yes, the number i called ended in 6600 so...

    Waiting on student VISA, is it possible to chase for an update?

    We didnt write an explanation letter either and it wasn't mandatory. The website said it wasn't needed so we didnt bother. And it also said we dont need medicals and police reports but they will get in touch if they change their minds. Tried calling the uk office today but it kept giving me an...

    Waiting on student VISA, is it possible to chase for an update?

    We didn't write an explanation letter as the website says it wasn't essential - we've paid all the VISA fees though, as well as the university fees where required, so they should have everything they need.. I'm gonna give the UK office a call today but I'm worried they're gonna tell me they...

    Waiting on student VISA, is it possible to chase for an update?

    We're both british passport holders, so I don't believe a TRV is required. I've e-mailed them a couple of times but I think I'm gonna give up on that as they don't seem to reply.. the sad truth is that they aren't required to process it within a certain time, they can take as long as they like...

    Waiting on student VISA, is it possible to chase for an update?

    Yes I applied online on the CIC website. We went through all the paper work a thousand times so I'm confident that we did it all correctly. One thing we didn't do is a medical but the website stated that as we were from the UK it wasn't essential (I hope that's correct) I've been checking my...

    Staying in Canada after graduation

    Thanks for your help! Do you know the likelihood of that post-graduation work permit being approved? If we do everything right, is it pretty much guaranteed, or do very few people get accepted?

    I need help! I'm not sure if I am filling in the right forms!

    We're passport holders, from the UK. Maybe we'll hold off a bit longer than until a few things are made a bit clearer. We haven't really looked at the working holiday visas, but I guess that could be something we can look into to see if it could work. Thanks so much for this, I just might open...
