Hi everyone! I've been reading the forum for a couple of days but I don't know if this is the place to post this, I hope it's okay here.

I applied for a Student Permit on August 1st and an Open Work Permit for my husband. I'm going to study a Master's Degree on Digital Media, it's a pogramm by 4 different instutions in Canada (SFU, BC, BCInstitute of Technology & Emily Carr University of Art + Design). Now, my course begins Sept 4th and I have my flight booked for 28th Aug (I can change it, that's not a problem).

My Immigration Agent told me it takes 20-23 days to process and that right now it appears like this online:

Review of eligibility: Your app is in progress. We will send you a message when we start reviewing your eligibility.
Medical results: You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.
Additional documents: You do not need additional documents.
Interview: You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
Biometrics: We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.
Background Check: We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.
Final decision: Your app is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.

Do you think it is likely I'll have before the 28th? They haven't asked for medicals or anything else and I'm very worried I'm not gonna have it in time for the 4th of September.
I'm applying from Spain and the processing time it says 3 weeks.

Thank you for your help!:)
