firstly, thank you for reading this, and I hope you can simply contribute to my situation.
My name is Eissa, I'm a student in Dalhousie University, I'm a Palestinian guy, born and lived all my life in Qatar. I applied to study permit and visa through Canadian embassy in Abu Dubai in early 2012. and I received my study permit and visa in mid 2012 (validity was from august 18.2012 to july 31.2014) to start in Georgian college in barrie Ontario. I stayed in college for the fall and had to drop in winter due to change in plan (credit wont transfer to university level) so I started in Dalhousie in june 2013, in the between time I went to Qatar, upgraded my English and visited family.
i studied in Dalhousie from September 2013 to April 2014, then i went home in late may and returned in mid july 2014. i contacted the cic from Qatar and they told theres no problem of applying late but not after the expiry date ( july 31 2014) they told to apply online and the student advisor in school advised how to do it.
on july 25, 2014 the online application for study permit was received and every single requirement and document was submitted and even extra. The processing time was 15 days. I waited from july 25 till September 2 (before school start within days). on September 2 my account on the cic was updated and file was close and the decision was "the application has been withdrawn" they attached a letter stating that the reason is because "you have submitted an application that must be submitted in paper form. we cannot take any action in your case until such time as you re-apply a new paper application to CPC-Vegreville"
I was shocked of the outcome because they told i cant go to school, so i had to drop this fall term. i tried calling so many times to understand why this happen and what should i do. they send me an email that i should apply for study permit and TRP, both of them in one file mailed to CPC. so i did and the paper application was received by September 5 2014. till this day every time i call they say we have it on file but not in process. i had 3 lawyers going into my file for help on why i need trp not trv especially that i'm a student. turns out to be that i had TRP for 2 years given by Abu-Dubai for no reason. and everyone treated like its a visa. my friend came to Toronto fresh from Qatar and they gave him trp and he applied for a visa like me. so i figured that maybe because we are Palestinian.
I would appreciate anyone who can help me figure out this complicated situation and give me a clear idea of what id next and when could cic finish processing my file, because I need to start in the upcoming winter term.
hope to hear from you guys. thank you
