Ask about status through webform. Doesn’t expedite.

SDS visa times have not been followed since before Covid. Not sure why IRCC has posted time of 20 days still on its website. Most people on here wait months even if applied through SDS. There is no ratio of acceptance. It depends on your program and profile.

Agree no point in sending a webform unless your wait times are months longer than most others applying from same country. It is very common to wait months even with SDS. Sending webforms just delays applications because resources get allocated to tell people to be patient and that their applications are being processed. There were additional delays this year because provinces were negotiating with federal government how cap of international students would be implemented and who would need provincial attestations. Now we know that if you applied before January 22 you will not be part of the cap or need provincial attestation but there was a period of a few weeks where this seems to have still been under discussion so many applications would have likely been on hold.
