Captainmew and Atif Ali? Any updates brothers..?

Nothing bro. stuck on same . Looks like they are waiting for closer to classes start date to make a decision. or no idea what is story behind. i noticed few people chose to defer LOA due to excessive delay. which is very unfair. for SDS, they should make a decision within timeline, should not be that much of delay. or our home country is delaying for the Background verification. its by third part hired by IRCC but should not be that much of late. hopefully we will not have to chose a defer because yet have pretty much time before September classes.
