Yea, mine didn’t change either.. it’s still the normal “we are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements”

Hello, when they start our eligibility review does the application status changes from we are processing your application to we are reviewing your application?

Sometime after I submitted my medicals, eligibility review changed from, “your application is in process, we will send you a message when we start reviewing your eligibility” to “we are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements”

Congratulation I got an email stating I have passed the first stage but not through my IRCC account is your PDF letter in the same format below. It appear that the below email was send to everyone who passed the first stage.
Please confirm whether your letter is in the same format below as I am confused whether the below email is AIP or not.


While the COVID-19 pandemic has presented a number of challenges world-wide, Canada’s whole-of-government approach is aimed at protecting the health of Canadians while minimizing the economic and social impact of restrictions. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada has implemented a temporary two-stage process to provide an update to international students who have not yet been able to provide all the required documents or information needed to have their application fully assessed in time for the fall semester.



You are receiving this notification as an officer has reviewed the information and documents you provided to support your study permit application. Based on this preliminary eligibility assessment, your application has advanced to the next stage of processing.



Additional information and documentation may be required in order to continue processing your application. If we previously requested that you complete biometrics and/or a medical examination and submit a police certificate, please do so as soon as you are able to. If you have not received a request from us for additional information or documents, please await further instructions.



Once we have received all requested information and documents, we will complete our assessment of your application and we will inform you of the final decision (approved or refused) made on your application.



While you await a final decision on your application you may commence your studies online.



If you are a representative who has received this notification, please ensure to advise your client(s) of this important information.





Thank you,
The PDF Letter is identical to this one. This file was available on my IRCC account.

I am too concerned abt it, is there any thing wrong with our files? haven't seen any news related to approval of complete application :(
I saw someone who had a complete application that received AIP too. So, it applies to everyone.
