someone commented from India that Indian visa office haven’t started second stage approval yet. Once VO start working on that they might see similar rejections as well. However in jigzyy’s list i have seen one indian received full approval that mean Indian office is already working on second stage. I don’t know whether its a mistake or he actually got it.
That I doubt. India's SDS has a very high SP rate. I dont think Covid is going to change that too much even now. Infact, imho, AIP has basically come to play because of VAC offices in India being closed (makes sense considering how many students come from India and imagine the impact on the canadian colleges/economy with even 50-60% of em refunding their fees). SDS for Pakistan was supposed to make our SP chances better (not as much as India's obviously but better then what we were getting previously). And the fact that AIP and then rejections are coming from Abu Dhabi isn't at all encouraging. I know AIP isnt final approval, they have told us that over and over again but at the same time, it was basically shown to be some sort of maybe maybe assurance that if criminal records and health were clear then AIP was 70% yes to SP ( I'm ball parking the number, don't anyone lecture me).
Not trying to be a downer but this is the first time I'm beginning to have doubts about the whole process.
