Submitted student permit application as international prospective student, the IRCC processing time I saw for my country was 136days and few days later it changed to 163days. The initial days have been crossed and just waiting for the second 163days attainment. Is there anything I need to do since the application was submitted by an agent.

Not much you can do but wait. Many people wait months for study permit responses. Has your application started eligibility review? Ask your agent.

Eligibility started 10th August, 2022 and later the agent told me that it's moved to ghost update. The explanation he gave was that IRCC is working on it. What is your thoughts?

What do you mean they are working on it? Ask your agent if eligibility review has started. Processing is at least 13 weeks so you have yet to pass processing times.

Yes. I saw the application when it turned that eligibility started 10th Aug, 2022 following IRCC feedback. Do you mean that from the date of eligibility started is from there you count 13weeks confirm for Nigerian student Visa Application?

Okay. Thought you had applied on August 10. All you can do is wait.

Again, processing time of my country which was 136, moved to 163 few days later and has again changed to 201days today. This is an average of 6months, 3weeks which is about 7months. I submitted my study permit application on 2nd June, 2022. Waiting on this means will be around Dec if we calculate with this and Jan 3, 2023 is semester start date. Any advice for me on best possible approach?. No solid advice from the agent.

Nothing you can do to speed up the processing of your application. The only thing you could do is raising a webform AFTER your application has exceeded the current normal processing times.

Good day. Please while I'm waiting for IRCC final decision on study permit application, my submitted medical exam is nearing expiry in next few weeks, must I go for another medical on expiry by myself or until I hear from IRCC final decision on my submitted application?

IRCC will tell you. But you likely will need a valid medical to enter Canada if study permit approved.

Please does IRCC request for another updated account statement order than the one submitted (four months) during student permit application?

What do you mean updated account statement? IRCC may ask for updated LOA if your program has started or been deferred.

I mean that while waiting for IRCC final decision on study permit application submitted, can IRCC in the courses of waiting, still request for another updated account statement again having submitted this during the initial application?

IRCC can ask for anything during the process - updated medical/IELTS if expired, new LOA, proof of deferment etc.
