Thank you. Yeah I will keep you posted as well if there is any update. I have started my PhD in Sept and now its almost one month that my study permit is expired.
I received the SP today. Tuesday I called the ircc. I insisted and the agent finally looked at my file and told me that normally it should have been processed a long time ago. Today my file has been updated 3 times (documents sent in July added, eligibility, decision). I was unlucky for three months, and I finally got some luck with this very kind agent I talked to on Tuesday. I hope you will get some good news soon. And if needed, if you are currently in Canada, you can contact your MP's office, they can help you.

Did you apply for study permit restoration?

Congratulations. That's really good to hear. Although it took a long time but at least you have got it. I sent a webform yesterday and I will wait for a couple of days for any response on that. I am in Canada and I will try to contact the MP of our area and will request to get any update for me. If nothing, then I will give them a call too. Thank you for letting me know

The number is 1-888-242-2100. You should call them between 11 am to 3 pm Montreal time. It's usually less busy.

Did you hear anything from IRCC? I am also waiting for study permit extension for more than 2 months. How long are they taking for the extension?

I sent them the webform last week. Today I got an update in my application that " We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements." Let's see what is next. I applied on July 28th, 2021.

I don't think there is any specific time. I read on different threads that sometimes u get a decision after 7-10 days when ur review starts and sometimes it even takes months. So, you cannot estimate how much days it will take for the decision to come after the start of the review.

Okay, Please post here when you get your extension approved.
