Hi Guys,
I have been a silent reader of all the post in this group and really appreciative of all the shared information, experiences and support system. All the information posted has helped me tremendously in understanding the process as well as coping with the stress associated during the waiting period. Hence, I would like to sincerely thank everyone who have helped me through this journey, unknowingly, and keeping me composed.
That being said, I would like to give you a brief about my case. I applied for study permit after 20 years of education gap for a post-grad program. According to consultants in India, I don't have a chance of getting approved and hence I shouldn't even try applying.
Not agreeing to their thought process, I did proceed with the application and as destiny would have it, I received my approval last night. So for those in a similar situation who are losing hope, I wanted to write this post mainly to request them not to lose faith and proceed with their dream. Have faith in yourself, be truthful with your thoughts and head for your goals!
Having said that, my timeline is as under:
Medical: Upfront before application
17th April: Application - Online General Category
24th April: Biometrics
1st May: 1st Acknowledgement Letter
15th May: 2nd Acknowledgement Letter
28th May: Medical Passed
29th May: Biometric Validity Letter from CPC - Ottawa
30th May: Passport Submission Request
Hope my post helps and inspires someone the way this thread helped me! Pass it on!
Good luck to everyone and thank you to all!
