Hi everyone, I'm in a tough situation and was wondering if anyone had any ideas on what to do.
On the 3rd of August 2024, I applied for a Study Permit Extension. On the 25th of September 2024, I received a message from IRCC saying that my application was withdrawn due to my DLI failing to verify my LOA within the specified time period.
I have since then confirmed with my enrollment advisors at my university that they did in fact receive the verification request from IRCC on the 8th of August, and that they promptly sent back a confirmation of verification of my letter of enrollment, confirming that I am a student and confirming the validity of my enrolment letter. They confirmed that they performed all of these actions within the specified time period, and have provided me with a supporting letter to show it.
I submitted this letter using the IRCC webform to my withdrawn application, and then called up IRCC and asked to begin the reconsideration process on my withdrawn application. Since I've heard that the reconsideration process is often inconsistent and unpredictable, I also submitted a new study permit extension application from scratch, with a letter of explanation explaining my circumstances.
The problem now is, if the reconsideration process bears no fruit, then all I have left is to rely on the new study permit extension application. However, if my university says that they did in fact verify everything on time, but IRCC STILL sent me that withdrawal letter, what is stopping this from happening again to my new application 2 months down the line? How do I ensure that for my new application, that this does not happen? I can easily reach out to my university to confirm that they have received IRCCs validation request and validated my status on time, but I can't think of a SINGLE way to ensure that IRCC has received my university's verification, since the operators at 1-888-242-2100 don't have access to the behind the scenes information. Any thoughts?
