Hello guys, i am new here and lost about my visa application.
i have applied for study permit through SDS on 31st march and completed biometric on 4 april.
there has been no update since then, and i am stressing about how long this will take to process the application since my college will be starting from 15th may. The status that is updated there has not been changed since 4 april and i am confused about what might does that mean!?
My application status is like:

Review of medical results
  • You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.
Review of additional documents
  • We do not need additional documents.
Interview
  • You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
Biometrics
  • April 4, 2023 Completed.
Background check
  • We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.
Final decision
  • Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.
Please help me to understand whether my application has started reviewing or it means its just in progress.
Thanks

Your application has yet to start eligibility review. Where do you live because you may need medical? May want to consider deferring.

It would state under Medical Results that your medical test results have been received. Right now, it states you do not need a medical but you do.

I have submitted e medical sheet to my visa application. I think once my profile will start reviewing it will get updated. The e medical has identifier number too.

One of the reasons why your application might be pending is that IRCC and all government agencies are on strike currently, leading to approval delays

Yea, that might be the reason.
Have you checked on the tracker? That will give you a more fair idea about your application because I also have the same thing you have on my gckey but on tracker which was updated on 19th April it’s said my eligibility is done

Just wait, your application will be updated automatically. If you dont get a response on your application by the end of the 1st week then consider deferring your term

Hey Naturgrl. Can I ask you a question please. I applied for my 3rd study permit application on 25th March and on 31st I got BVL then afterwards it’s has been silence I’m quite worried because people normally get their decisions few days after BVL. And also my tracker says Eligibility & biometric is completed but background is in progress. It’s soon almost a month since I got BVL. Do you advice that I should raise a webform?
