Correct and they sent me the instructions.

I have applied and given my biometrics in the US, but submitted my passport in the VAC in my home country. I just had to pay additional fee for doing so. You should be able to request specific instructions from the VAC that is closest to you as to what documents/payments to submit.

If you are a resident of the country that needs a Canadian visa, then yes you need to get a stamp in your passport. You can contact your nearest VAC to send you the specific instructions for passport submission. They should be able to help you.

I had the reversal as well, and despite it my visa eventually got approved a few weeks after. I applied in June.

Thanks for your input but why would validity dates matter in this case? The start date on the LOA is the key according to you.

I haven’t gotten my visa stamped in the passport yet as I am about to send the documentation to my VAC soon. Also wouldn’t the study permit date be the date of the arrival to the Canadian airport as that’s where/when we get issued our study permits?

True, on the government official website I couldn’t find any references to this issue. And thanks, I would appreciate your update on this.

How early can we enter Canada in these unique circumstances once we get our passports stamped? My studies start in early January 2021, and I am looking to arrive one month before my start date. I've read somewhere here that during a recent webinar they said we could enter only up to three weeks...

Got the passport request just now! So same day as the BVL.

Hello. Finally something happening to my application. I have just received my BVL. I was sent today an email to check the message in my GC account. My profile: Applied from USA Submission: June 20 Biometrics completed: July 26 A/P: August 26 Office: Ottawa College is on the approved list...

This might help.

If you lived in certain countries for 6 months in the year before coming to Canada you may not need a medical exam. Here's a helpful link in regards to this.

No updates for me. Applied in late June, AIP late August, biometrics done late July, primary office Ottawa, DLI is on the readiness list.

Yup, it's on the list.

I have an AP, deferred to Winter 21. Also recently got the the eligibility reversal status for some reason. Applied in June from US, got AP in late August. No BVL or PPR yet.

Applied from USA, but now am residing in Europe. No option for SDS, I did defer for Winter 21 and updated that and my new residence so that might have had to do something with my GC key update, but not sure.

The ghost update also happened to me the other day but I noticed that my eligibility status actually reversed and now it says it has not started yet (I received AIP previously). Perhaps you had the same change. I have no idea why it changed like that.

I have applied for a PBD after doing masters in the US and got an A/P in the first attempt. Applied from the US, non-US citizen.

The Canada VAC in Los Angeles will now be receiving passport requests effective September 14, 2020 as well as returning them, all via a courier service. Is this is a sign that the US applicants will soon receive passport request letters from IRCC? https://www.vfsglobal.ca/canada/usa/

I am not 100 percent sure, but am in touch with my school to see if that's possible. This is from Northeastern University, so not official, but may be the case: Q. Do I have to study if I have first-stage approval? No, if you would prefer to wait until your study permit is approved, and your...
