I don’t even bother writing webforms anymore. I just call when I have the lucky to be transferred to an agent. Nothing is easy with IRCC.

Meh. By this logic, Canada & Australia doling out PRs should have been the beginning of the end for the US, and that hasn't happened.
Chances are the US will continue to attract the cream of the crop - for these folks, the 3 months they're given after graduation is usually plenty of time to find a job. While green cards may be a pain, it's easier to make top dollar in the US, there are far more jobs and you're more likely to have a higher standard of living than in Canada or the UK. The ones who don't find a job in 3 months usually attended sub-par universities, studied something worthless or the market didn't deem them competitive w.r.t their peers.
Back in the day, most folks who went to the UK to study did so because all they had to write was the IELTS (not the GRE) and it was easier to get into a program. Chances are the same bottom feeders will jump at this opportunity, setting UK up to be another country where a large number of immigrants are under employed or where they blow 2-3 yrs of additional living expenses before returning home.

What the hell. I swear all I got for PCC upload was a single upload file field. Now what am I supposed to do? Send a webform with file number and expiry date?
Dont mean to upset anyone but it seems like for a change IRCC might consider canceling all the applications to clear the backlog....Cruel and not surprising but atleast it gives us some certainty.

Discussion of cancelling apps has happened here many time over and over again. They are not cancelling jack.
The continuation of your bolded statement:
"But it is unacceptably cruel to those who have in good faith waited years through this process. Not incidentally, it would be a savage blow to Canada’s reputation as a fair and competent manager of a successful immigration system."

Also, I cannot remember a single time they "hinted" about cancelling apps. Fraser himself said that back in January. Imagine the international image when minister of immigration says one thing and then does a complete opposite couple of months later.
history has taught us that IRCC releases information or their plans to their clients through immigration lawyers, CICNews and online news.

I assume you mean the new pathway for top 50 graduates, correct? Lambda college graduates cannot spell their own names without mistakes; yet you assume they will be eligible under this program lol

Sure. Yet, I don't remember a single piece of information where they actually considered cancelling applications. Plus, what applications you think they should cancel? 1.8 million are not EE applications (FSW is around 50K plus/minus). Temporary visas? They will apply again. Family class? Apply again.
So, which ones?
Well he might just get a promotion like Marco for making the headache-inducing problem go away. i dont remember reading or hearing about his govt cancelling apps myself however this writer makes a very bold assertion. He/she/it/they might just know something yet to be announced. Anyway Im prepared for anything

Again, how does cancelling apps will make a problem go away? 1.8 millions include temporary visas (people will just reapply), family class (just reapply), refugees (damn, that's going to be fun to cancel).
Maybe, just maybe, that journalist makes a bold statement to get clicks/shares. I know not like journalists talking out of the bottom to get attention HAS EVER happened before but just a thought )))
If you don't mind, could anyone please help me with my dilemma?
Summary of my case:
Summary of my case:
- FSW - Outland. AOR - 12th December 2020. Recently I got and completed the re-medical request on 21st March 2022.
- I received an offer for the UBC Master of Data Science program with a program start date of 31st August.
- Do you think it is wise to wait for PR? Is it useful to raise a web form attaching the offer letter and requesting IRCC to expedite my case? Or should I apply for a student visa?
- Is there an increased risk of visa refusal since I already have an active PR application? I've read that even if dual intent is a legit circumstance, it is extremely rare to get an approval. Is this true? Should I decline my opportunity at UBC?
1. they give no damn to applicants' circumstances and I bet on my cat's balls no FSW case can be expedited
2. yeah applying for a student visa while having PR case in progress would be a red flag for a visa officer, high risk of rejection
Summing up, I advise waiting for your case to be processed. Backlog seems to be set to zero by the end of the year.
