Not just that, it also seems like their processing procedure is all over the place. Someone got their application approved under a month while some others are still waiting for almost 3 months. I myself has been waiting since May 24th.

You have no idea how lucky you are lol :'(

You're fine. Just apply for a new one once you get back to Canada. Applying for a new visa is much easier to do in Canada.

Your description should have included more details, without those it's pretty much impossible to give you any advice. For starters, are you extending your study permit? Or are you applying for a new one? IF you are just applying for an extension, it shouldn't matter as you will have implied...

I got the same thing last week. Still nothing lol

Thanks for the information parhar51. Another question somewhat unrelated question, if she request from study to visitor status does her study permit becomes invalid immediately or after she gets her visitor status approved?

VO=Visa Officer. And yeah I feel you brother. The timeline for almost all applications are more than 80 days now. Freaking ridiculous.

You could try. Anything can happen. I've ready stories about a person getting his study permit extended just by talking to the VO at the airport. You may be able to arrange something with them, and it doesn't hurt to go visit them. Worse comes to worse you just wasted a trip so it's not too bad...

Hi guys, I need some help regarding the visitor status restoration procedure and I hope seniors here can answer my question. So my wife is finishing her studies soon and her original study permit expires on the end of September. She's thinking about taking another 4 month course (different...

Why didn't you apply into the Coop program? UBC has one of the best Coop programs and the program comes with a Open Work Permit.

So all the previous threads seems to be gone. This thread is dedicated to those who wish to share information on their study permit extension timelines. I applied on May 24th and still nothing :/

Definitely weird. It's definitely worth a try, however I'm assuming you would be required to apply for a change of status kind of procedure. Good luck!

Then you have to apply for restoration of status within the 90 days grace period.

Grats Josh. I like how the fact you get it before Anna did who applied 3 weeks before you :P

With the current timeline don't even bother. CIC will not issue permits/visas beyond your passport's expiry date. Unless your permit is expiring soon, otherwise you'll just get 3 months worth of permit and you'll be required to renew it again.

As I mentioned in another thread, they are extremely lucky individuals. The only reason I can come up with is that there are internal problems going. Otherwise it just doesn't make any sense. Same time last year, it only takes 1 week to get my application approved.

With good grades and a decent IELTS score, you should be able to apply to UoC with no problems. IF you're really worried about getting rejected then maybe you should apply for lower tier Universities such as Simon Fraser University, Thompson River University and Capilano University for higher...

That's 83 days. You should call CIC regarding the process of your application as it is already 83 days.

I got an this morning email stating that my application has been updated. I logged into CIC and the Status column also showed updated. Clicked in...nothing. The updated line is now replaced with Submitted as well....Damn that was unnerving.

Well at least give us some description on what happened. Your post just made you sound like you're swimming in salt.
