Hi guys,
- 26/04: I applied for SDS at VFS office in Vietnam and took Biometrics there on the same date. I also submitted to VFS the letter from the clinic where I took medical tests.
- 29/04: is under process at the IRCC Office (email notification from VFS).
- 21/05: I linked paper application to online application and here are the status showed till now:
- Eligibility: "Your application is in progress...we will send you message when we start reviewing your eligibility."
- Medical: "We are reviewing..."
- Biometrics: "We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes."
- Background: "We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information."

Please someone helps to tell me if they started reviewing my application as it's one month till now. I saw you guys mentioned about student acknowledgement letter and correspondent letter, what are they actually? I haven't had any and now get more panic.
Btw I apply for MEd at University of Victoria, B.C.

Thanksss.

15th April- additional medical tests.
I gave medical before applying (18th march) and asked to appear for more tests before filing application (29th March but received letter on 15th April)
Medical passed -6th may
After that no updates. Not even eligibility review started.
Any idea if this is normal and how long can they take?

Hi! Is there anyone applying from London VO?

I am an international student from China and now studying in UK. I submitted my online application for study permit on 06 April 2019, and still no updates for original passport request. I tried to contact high commission via email and web-form, however, no useful information replied. My postgraduate study program will begin on 17 June 2019, and I am very worried about not being able to go for my postgraduate study . The following are my application status. Any suggestion or sharing is welcome! Thanks a lot!

Hello,

I applied for a study permit and work permit for my husband Feb 1st and I haven't had anything as of yet. My statuses read the same as yours. I hope you have more luck than me but I have found the London Office to be very frustrating. Considering the processing times have shown 1 week for a long time now I am really unsure what is going o .

Thanks for you reply! The processing time is quiet confusing... I remember the processing time of London office was 23 weeks in March, so I originally submitted my application to HongKong office (5 weeks). However, HongKong office told me that my application was transferred to UK, and when I checked the processing time of London office, it changed to 1 week. I thought that maybe I could get my application quicker but now it disappoints me a lot. You applied much earlier than me, maybe your update is around the corner! Best luck for both of us!!
