yeah, I really hope you are right about study trvs being a priority (also did you mean for stamping or approving hahahahah), I was a bit late because I had to come to dubai for a medical family emergency and it completely went over my head needing to go back before the previous expiry or even applying earlier. Would officers automatically access your previous applications and see previous approvals?
I see with your biometrics, but did you not have yours previously saved in the system?
similar to you from 2021 Ive had a study permit approved from UAE, which came with a study visa. As well as a study permit which I have renewed in march of this year.
