I was a PR too, I went through 4 years of high school, 1 year in college, and worked in Canada. At a certain point I decided I wanted to reconnect and spend time with my brothers that didn't emigrate to Canada, so I lived in the UK for a couple of years and ended up getting a degree at a British...

uh oh, that sounds similar to me. You said you grew up in Canada, were you a permanent resident? my mother and sisters live in Canada as Canadian citizens but I also have brothers who live in the UK(UK-only citizens), it's probably safe to assume they are checking info on each of your family...

The processing times only include the fastest 80% of applications, not only will they tell you this but I can attest that this is true: if the current processing time is 1 week then there is no way in hell they have included the applications of the slowest 20% in their calculations, applicants...

Thanks for the information, the application due date on page 2 is 2019/01/09 ... I assume this is 1st of september and not 9th of january since the GCMS notes are from march? Does this mean I shouldn't expect a decision until september? haha that's nearly a year since I submitted my application...

So I just received GCMS notes and can see the following: Updated Date: 2019/02/12 Assessment Eligibility: Review Required Security: HIRV: Criminality: Passed - Bio Org Crime: Medical: Misrep: Other Rep: Info Sharing: Complete Final: Counterfoil: No Does anyone know: are the blanks 'not...

Sorry to hear about your outcome, yes I have my paper application linked to an online account but never received any messages or anything.. thanks for the info.

I am considering going on a trip somewhere for about a month, my course starts in May. How does IRCC inform you of their decision? I assume they mail the letter of introduction or rejection letter to the address they have on file, but do they also email you an electronic copy? if so can you...

I'm from the UK and I applied to do a 2 year computer networking course at Georgian. The UK office has had very long processing times compared to other countries, which is quite frustrating ... for a while it was up to 23 weeks!

Thank you!

I don't think there's anything you can do to make them do the application any faster. I am approaching 20 weeks, I have sent 2 case specific enquiries and both times they just respond like robots "we are actively processing as fast as we can, we can't tell you how much longer, and anyway we only...

I am not sure how much research you've done already so i'll just throw stuff out there! For choosing a subject I think it's a good idea to browse the different occupations in demand and choose one(or a few to approach institutions with) that you'll be happy doing and that gives good points...

I'd say it's possible, what field are you a graduate of? I assume by score you mean express entry, what was your score? What will your score be if you factor in canadian education and work experience from pgwp. How long are you willing to study for in Canada? Also, there is the possibility of...

Sorry to hear about your outcome ... the nightmare ended at least, now you can make a new plan!

I think you are confusing 'guarantee' with 'aim, target, goal', it is not the same thing. Their goal is to process 80% of applications within the processing time, at no point do they use the word guarantee. If they fail to process 80% of applications within the processing time for a given...

Ok, I found the service standard on their website: Service standard IRCC’s goal is to process applications submitted outside Canada for a new study permit within 2 months. In order to process an application, we must have all information and supporting documents. This service standard was...

I'm afraid you're mistaken, this is a quote from one of the replies I received from a CSE: "As indicated on our website, the processing times provided are based on how long it took to process 80% of all applications during that time period and are subject to change. As these processing times...

I've heard that applying online is faster but now we have to give biometrics which has to be done in person so maybe, maybe not. I followed the advice of my Eduport representative and submitted a paper application at the same time I gave biometrics. I am also skeptical of their processing times...

Not the Dubai office, but i'm in the same boat .. I applied at the London office in early november but still no decision, it has been 127 days now or 18 weeks and 1 day. After I missed my start date for my course I started pestering them with specific case enquiries once per month but they...

The college wont return your money unless you can show them a rejection letter from IRCC, they should be willing to defer you until the next intake after May if you don't receive a decision by then. I am in the same boat, I feel for you ... life on hold due to waiting for a decision that could...

I guess this is a bit of a rant, i'm very frustrated with IRCC at the moment. I applied for a study permit early November, at that point the processing time for the UK was 7 weeks. I visited the VFS Global office in person and submitted biometrics at the same time as the paper application...
