STUDY PERMIT - APPLIED ON OCTOBER 2020

[yenice]

What is the current turnaround time for SDS applications? I will be able to complete the sds requirements in early January and my intake is in May. I don't know if that is enough time.

I think it's ok to apply on January. I have only seen 2 students who were approved for May intake. The rest are like me who submitted very early and no decision till date

Hi! No updates till date. I am waiting for final decision, already received BVL on Oct 20. How about yours?

Hi, how does the BVL update on GCKey. I mean does it appear on GCKey somewhere ?

I submitted my biometrics last year for my past tourist visa application. They already have my medical as well. It says my background check is ongoing since last week but no other updates aside from that.

Hi, Does your biometrics updated on GCKey account under the application information?

I understand you have given your biometrics last year for your visitor visa, Did you also receive the BVL for this application ?

Can you please share your timelines on each point to which will give us an idea how your application is being processed meanwhile your biometrics was done last year.

Which country did you apply from?

Yes, you need a fresh Letter of Acceptance, you can remind your college about that. Although they automatically issue a fresh letter as per their schedule.

GC Key is login credentials to track your Visa Application status on IRCC website.

I see, thank you

Thanks and good luck! We are applying for sOWP and my sons SP along with my SDS application. Getting schedules and appointments for the requirements have been hard in the Philippines.

We will also apply for OWP upon SP approval. If I have known it will take this long even we applied early then we should have lodged the same time hehe. Good luck and God bless po!
