Restoration of status as a student-Delay

[Ashav]

Hi there,

I applied for restoration of status as a student( Jan intake,2019) along with spousal work permit on October 12, 2018 but still waiting for the final decision. I read somewhere that restoration as student takes the same processing time for study permit extension and it is 53days for online application. In our case it crossed almost 81 days.

Does anyone stucked in the similar situation?

Thanks

Need more information. How did you end up out of status? What have you been doing since falling out of status. Where is your wife? Wa she previously on an SOWP. Spouses of International students are not guaranteed permits and/or visas to accompany their spouses to Canada. The addition of an SOWP adds processing time but hard to comment without the full story.

According to most sources Restoration takes much longer than study permit extension, up to 4 months.
