Study Permit Extensions

[bluecats17]

i got one email like this about one month after my application, yet no updated result from my CIC account so far. i applied in the middle of June, this email came in the middle of July.

not so many as you've got, but i guess you will get a fine result.

Thank you, roadtofreedom16.
I hope my application will be approved soon.

Guys do we need to submit medical report done in last 12 months again while filing for extension.

No, you are not required. Your answer to the questionnaire should have been no, if you haven't been outside of Canada in the past 12 months.

Cheers!

From what I understand is that if you apply for an extension and your study permit expires during the processing stage, you are in implied status so you don't have to leave. If they don't extend your permit (I think if you mentioned your circumstances then that shouldn't be the case), you have some time to apply for a restoration etc. I wold suggest you talk to someone at your university's international office for more details as a precaution but I think those are some options.

Thank you very much Samroc for your answer!

Hi everyone,
So my husband applied on May 29th for a study permit (he was on a spousal work permit but now got accepted in school and asked for a study permit) as far as I know this process is considered as an study permit extension.
He applied May 29th (online)
July 21st got the weird email update with no real update
July 24 in the morning he got the update notifying the approval
July 24 afternoon he got a digital letter indicating that a package will be sent to our mailing adress in no more than 6 weeks.

So I think we were in the lucky group to get approval before 2 months. I also have a question: will this package contain the study permit in physical or he will need to send his passport once this Package arrives? The online letter did not say anything about sending the passport so I'm confused.

Hello, may I ask which province you applied to?

This delay is scaring me.
I will apply this week.

By the way I just written the letter of explanation.
I was wondering if someone could check the grammar mistakes, where may I post it?

Hi Everyone, my study permit extension application got approved. Here is my info:

Province: Alberta
Date Applied: June 8th
Updates: Received first update message on July 24th with no change
Approval: Logged in last night (July 27th) and saw application status said "approved"

So it took about 50 days. My current permit was expiring on July 30th so I am glad they processed it before that.

Good luck to everyone else waiting for their extension approval.

Thanks! I am attending University of Calgary. I am not sure but maybe they are prioritizing non-Quebec folks based on when their permit is expiring. Mine was expiring on July 30th. I hope you hear soon!

Don't think so, I've applied for extension on 28th May here (British Columbia), still nothing. My permit expired on 15th July, enjoying implied status.
Their system is crazy, the order they're processing the applications makes no sense and the website timeline is not that trustworthy either, lol.
Good luck for us all!
