Should I raise a web form?

[computerscience23]

Hello! As you all know, CIC recently introduced 2 stage approval process for international students and stage 1 (Approval in principle) doesn't require applicants to submit biometrics. Some people (Nigerian applicants as far as I remember) posted on this platform that they received stage 1 approval sometime around last week. I guess CIC must have solid backlog for India given the huge number of applicants. So, is it advisable to raise a web form to inquire about the status? Also, did anyone from India receive stage 1 approval recently?

Below is some background info:

- I submitted a complete online application on April 06th' 2020 and got biometrics request on April 07th' 2020. Since then, I got no update.
- I am a returning student (September 2016 intake) and my previous study permit expired on July 08th' 2020.

if the normal processing time has exceeded for your application, I don't see why you should not. i did the same and received an approved in principle email.

Thanks for your reply. But it shows that they haven't even started reviewing my eligibility. Is that fine? Also, did you use this web form - https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/contacts/web-form.asp?fbclid=IwAR39XM0F_rllMO8aKT5UwkbkSpgIM6N11Hm5WuZrjYIAZos1Oc-N2wMlagA#q2
