Also, my ppr was generated over a month and a half ago but the status on GCMS notes says "not started"
and it was also due over a month and a half ago. So now, I'm just waiting.

I would like to check if you have any sample SOP and did you explain why are you studying in canada when US has the same quality of education? Did u mention ur going back to US or country of citizenship?
