Medical requested 23 december 2022

I'm waiting for the appointment with the doctor.
But for the evolution of my file what to expect, I have the impression that it is too fast
Medical request is a good sign. They don’t bother sending it if you don’t pass eligibility.
 
The program lasts one year, preparatory course.
Then I will do an extension of SP for the 4-year baccalaureate when I have this one
If you don’t need to be in Canada to complete a prep course then why not apply for SP for 4 year bachelor. What school?

The preparatory course is compulsory for me before starting the baccalaureate.
I am admitted to Laval University.

Hey @Hiver23Q Congratulations on your approval back some time ago! May I ask, did you make a second SP application or your request for re-consideration via the webform was enough for the IRCC to re-consider your case and approve you in six weeks?

To end the story for those who will be reading, I got PPR six weeks after my second attempt. I am in canada since February

Thanks. It is the second application that got approved. For the reconsideration I just got a message stating that the documents I provided had been added to the file but about three weeks later I got a the ppr for the second application.

Thank you for your reply and explanation @Hiver23Q! I really appreciate it! :) Do I understand it correctly that you applied for the reconsideration of your first application while your second application was already in progress?

No problem Parrots. I applied for reconsideration the day after I got the rejection. The second application was two weeks after rejection. I added documents from a family member saying that he would cover the expenses and my supervisor wrote a letter explaining that the scholarship should cover all the expenses.
