Yes but you only did the biometrics on 22nd October, I was meaning that maybe @Saini95 can send a few enquiries that may help get IRCC to process the application if it got stuck at some stage, more like urging them to process the application. You may mention the study permit submission deadline...

Yes, that's right.

Still nothing. Did you send any CSEs to IRCC regarding your application processing delays?

Yes that's common to receive a decision on the weekends. A quick search brings up this thread from July: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/sds-visa-from-india.643089/page-11#post-8047701

Could also be IRCC requesting more documents. Please make sure you or your agent do check what the notification is about, it's important.

Yeah those were lucky to have their applications processed so quickly. There's nothing we can do except wait. =)

Sorry bro that sucks. I don't know if they're overwhelmed with cases or if your embassy is taking longer to finish the review, which might cause such delays. Anyways, hang in there, you'll hear the final verdict soon, hopefully by the end of this week.

They have just started reviewing my eligibility, I didn't get any email notification but I was able to see the update in my GCKey account. Hopefully it won't take them more than 2 days to finalize this review and give a final decision. Good luck everyone!

Any other documents required as per your local visa office instructions, you should upload them under client information, e.g transcripts and police certificates. If you answered yes to using a representative, then I believe in the application documents page you'll have a place to upload the...

Yes, 20 calendar days after biometrics enrollment.

Many people here got refused within 2 weeks of applying, if your application is taking longer then chances are it will lead to an approval hopefully. =) Also worth noting that on the CSE form they state that they will not respond to your enquiry if the application hasn't exceeded normal...

Ah. In that sense I guess I'll wait. Let's give it another week and see. Thanks and good luck on your application!

Thank you for responding so quickly to my inquiry. Was their response any helpful, regarding the status of your application? In the SDS processing time page they say that their processing time is usually 20 calendar days, so that includes the weekends as well. Are you sure it's business days?

Oct 07 - Upfront medical. Oct 16 - Online SDS application. Oct 18 - Biometrics updated, medical passed, background check started. Nov 04 - Embassy asked for all my transcripts and mark-sheets, which I uploaded few hours later. No further updates received. Eligibility review has not started yet...

For SDS, the normal processing time is 20 calendar days after your biometrics are updated. Cases vary from an applicant to another. They might be taking more time processing your background check or eligibility review, or both. Why would you be worried if your application hasn't surpassed the...

I was requested today to provide all my past transcripts and mark sheets as I only provided the most recent one. I believe they have started my eligibility review. My timeline: Oct 16 - Online (SDS) application Oct 18 - Biometrics updated, medical passed, background check started Nov 04 -...

SDS requires IELTS score of 6.0 or higher in each language skill: listening, reading, writing and speaking: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/temporary-residents/study-permits/direct-stream.html#toc02
