They made it clear on their website that one of the advantages of sds Include a faster decision. Yes that is the harsh reality at least it appears that way to me, i think according to them its not about being fair its about delivering their obligation towards their sds clients and we really cant expect them to be fair. Like we just have to pay the price of opting for non sds, the good news however for us is that their work load is decreasing so i strongly believe they’ll give out decisions to every student before august 6th. I also observed a pattern where in youtube those ppr time line guys often mentioned “non sds files are also getting bulk pprs” karke. So yeah this appears to be their go to way of how to deal with files.
I completely believed they will give out decisions before that timeline. Its just that 4 months of waiting has drained our brains.
Anywhoo.. its not like you don’t need to show funds for non-sds, the obligation is even bigger just that its not up front.
About the fact on non-sds vs SDS. Guess what? Most top schools master cannot just have SDS as the go-to route. Even after scholarship, what am paying in 1st year tuition fees is more than 2 year full fees and living cost for many of the PGD/cert/UGD etc etc programs. So heck no I am not putting that money in a foreign account. Even folks who just put in non sds applications in my class until March 20 got decisions by May 1st week as IRCC had taken pace.
Its just a sad time and no one could have predicted. If someone walks up telling you “I told you so”.. he is either fooling you or is a narc buffoon himself. Run away. Whether its me, your mates or a consultant. In fact a consultant could have guessed actually (if he is worth his salt)
Literally non-SDS applications who re-applied or did biometrics later have received decisions. So its just not that.
Its a long discussion. Just sharing my 2 cents.
Don’t cry over spilt milk. That’s all.
Hope for the best!
