Oh, I see. Good luck with that then! As for me, I'll definitely be attending UofCalgary if I get the study permit on time. Maybe we'll both get the PP request at the same time. Hopefully by this week.

Still waiting here as well. Got the Medical's passed notification on the 3rd of August. 10 days have passed, still nothing. Oh and I applied to the Visa Office in Abu Dhabi.

Hi guys, Anyone attending/applied to University of Calgary for this Fall intake? Oh and on average, how long does it take to reach a decision after the Medical's passed?

@ mead Thank you for your detailed answer. Much appreciated. And I understand exactly what it is you're saying. So I suppose the best time to work in Alberta would be when there is a boom in oil prices and higher demand for it as well. But that would be relatively short-term, and will have...

Hi. As a prospective job seeker, I'd like to know which province has a more balanced job market. So that fluctuations in any one commodity don't result in the instability of the economy. So far I'm guessing Alberta is most vulnerable to changes in oil prices, but surely the future of oil will...

@ blazin123 I wish, dude. :'( No updates yet.

I was wondering if there are any changes to the statuses on your MyCIC account, that might indicate your application being completed. Things like "Not needed at this time" or "Not started."

@ smileyuae Yours is a very peculiar situation. Please do keep us informed on how it works out. @ blazin123 Yeah, man. You should totally follow up on your application. 12 weeks is far too long, and way more than the average time. @ao92 The email you received is pretty normal, and most...

@ smileyuae It's true. Most of the Indian applicants have recieved their Study Permits in less than half the time of us GCC applicants. At the moment, I'd recommend everyone to apply from anywhere (even Nigeria) before thinking about Abu Dhabi. It really is a deplorable situation for all of us...

@ blazin123 No prob, man. No updates on my side either. Well except for the Medical Exam being passed. And it has been nearly 8 weeks since I applied. Hopefully, it's only a small matter of time before this wait yields some positive results. Stay strong! ;D

@ blazin123 Hey! Any updates so far? I checked MyCIC account and the medical results are passed. So thank God for that! Anybody got any idea on how much longer it can take after that? Like what is it that they are processing now? Background checks or what?

@ blazin123 Thanks, man! :) I'm going to the University of Calgary (Calgary, Alberta) and I am a Pakistani national. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll receive some good news soon. Don't lose hope! Also, if you don't mind me asking, where are you planning to study? @ tipsy Thanks for your reply...

Well, I just received my Medical Call today! Exactly 6 weeks after VAC Abu Dhabi received my application, which was on the 15th of June, 2015. Already booked my appointment three days from now. Anyone got any idea on how long after the medical do they reach a decision? Also, does receiving a...

Hello there! I too have applied for a Canadian Study Permit for Fall 2015. But my application has been submitted in Qatar, before being forwarded to Abu Dhabi for processing. It's going to be 6 weeks since the day of submission tomorrow. I have not received any updates so far except for the...
