21st July - no update. Many got who applied along with me ... seems they are prioritizing the applications based on the safe zone to critical zone people . Safe zone people like good academics , Min . and relevant work experience , Good ielts scores , Good SOP etc ... Critical zone people like Average academics , Huge study gap more than 3 years though with relevant work experience , Irrelevant work experience , SOP not convincing or any partially filled applications etc
Since there is no time for them to do a back ground check . They are releasing for safe zone people immediately . Critical zone people will be reviewed parallely but they are taking time for giving final decision it may be approval or refusal based on their deciding authority .
So people who applied very earlier but still didnt get updates they are under critical category (50/50 chances ).
