I think the poster wants to compare timeline for non-sds applicants who applied AFTER January 22, when PAL came into effect.
Nonetheless, you are almost there. You should get PPR soon .

Well I applied for Masters so I dont have PAL. But that means I can get my PPR soon right?

How do you know your visa office

How do you know your visa office

Because he is applying from there, like I am from Kolkata so, so my visa Office is Kolkata. If your city doesn't have a Visa Office then you are probably alloted the nearest office from your place or you can choose the one you are comfortable with

Try to get in touch with IRCC. I did the same & they’d mentioned that it’d be done in 4-7 weeks as of April 7th. 4.5 weeks in now. Wishing y’all the best & hoping y’all are approved!

Don’t need to give biometrics or medical

Hi! From what I saw on this tracker here, in the past few months non-SDS study permit applications have been taking around 8-12 weeks to process: https://myimmitracker.com/en/ca/trackers/study-permit-tracker

Just an update from me. Super, super fast application process.

Applied- May 9th
Biometrics already done for visitor visa
BIL validity letter - May 23rd
Passport Request Letter - May 23rd.

2 weeks!!!

My background:
Complete career change. I am currently in medical administration.
Going to centennial to do 2 year diploma in truck and transport repair.
39 years old.
Paid first year tuition in full.
Showed $25000 in Canadian bank account. Showed home bank account.
Common law so sent copies of that documentation, along with letter from my wife saying she will support me for the final year (she is a chartered accountant).

Good luck to you all, but it seems that the PAL requirement may be now streamlining the applications?
