Help!! Study permit

[Oluwatosin Rachael]

I got a bvl and a passport request concerning my study permit. However, I just received an update from my school that my course will no longer start on 22nd May 2023 but 29th May 2023/12th June 2023. They just sent a revised acceptance letter and a revised work permit request letter, and has recommended that I update it on my application.
Technically, my study permit application has been approved, please how can I add these documents? And hope it won't have any adverse effect on my application?

Hello, I see no concern for you, it was not your mistake and you should have nothing to worry about. My suggestion is to send a webform informing about this change and attaching your new letter of acceptance. Although, you should do this as soon as possible to avoid any misunderstanding. I assume IRCC and Canadian embassies have had this type of case several occassions before, so as long as you inform them, you should be fine.

Don't forget to attach the letter of acceptance before submitting the webform. You can do that after you hit 'Next' once you input all your information.

I have submitted two webforms now, usually one is expected to receive an email from them after submission, but I did not receive any email. I was only notified that my enquiry has been successful submitted after submitting. Please what do I do now?

Question, was your study permit submitted outside or inside Canada? I have sent a number of webforms in the past and you should only receive an automatic acknowledgement email. Although, they usually take a few days or weeks, maybe months to actually open and process your webform. Remember, don't concern yourself over this, it is totally normal.

I applied outside Canada, and just as you said, I'm supposed to get an automatic acknowledgement but I didn't this time around. Could it be because the application has been approved technically and my passport requested for?

Just as you advised, I will TRY not to be worried and anticipate an acknowledgement from IRCC.

Thanks so much for your timely responses.

I really can't tell. All the webforms I have sent have been when waiting for a decision and I got emails of acknowledgement. I just found a screenshot from one of these and the submitting screen says:

"Success!
Your enquiry has been sent to the visa office processing your application. You should receive a reply within 28 working days (by email, regular mail or fax).
If your application is within normal processing times you may not receive a reply from the visa office.
If your message contains new information for your application (e.g. adding a newborn or change of address) your file will be updated but the visa office may not respond to your email."

Visa offices and IRCC take forever to reply to anything and will rarely reply to emails. However, they will open your webform and update your info and may not notify you. Don't trick yourself into thinking you will be ignored. I also don't think that your approval has to do with not receiving an email. Lastly, if you are sure your two webforms were correctly sent, then you should not send a single more, this will only delay everyone waiting from your visa office.

Yes, I received same message, that my enquiry has been sent... I got the same response the two times I submitted the webform.

Well, I'm just concerned as to if the visa officer at the border thinks I have lied die to him receiving the updated acceptance letter, different from the one I applied with.

Do you mean upon arriving at the airport? I don't know how different Embassies/Visa offices work but I never got PPR. Instead, I got a letter of approval for my study permit, and when I landed on Canada they issued my permit (it's just a sheet of paper). Make sure to bring evidence: both letters of acceptance, maybe a form issued by your school that you are enrolled, the email with the updated acceptance letter. I have heard of students who dealt with demanding officers, others with calm officers (as with me, they asked me like two or three basic questions). You will not be refused your visa. Just come prepared with the documents I mentioned (and if you think of more that could support you). Most likely the officer will not ask for these and will just go with your word and issue your permit.

Alright then. I will have all necessary documents ready. Thank you so much. I'm grateful.

You're welcome. Don't be afraid, one or two weeks of difference on the term start will not raise any eyebrows, just be prepared. Please keep me updated with how it goes, I know it will be favourable for you.

I got an email from IRCC notifying me that they got my webform enquiry and it has been added to my file.

I'm currently awaiting my passport that was requested by IRCC.

I pray everything ends well.

Hello. That is great to hear, and very nice they notified you. Hopefully you receive your passport very soon.
