Guys anything updated in your profile? Like biometrics!

No movement on our end yet Jaggi__. We are getting desperate as the University session starts in September.

That is exactly my application status right now, I have also submitted a webform (no response yet).
The only other way of reaching out to them is via phone, but you have to call them early in the morning to end up with a human agent. I have not been able to reach an agent so far, even when I called at 8 AM.

I tried calling them today twice at 7:45 AM and then again at 11:15 AM and after going through the "press this, enter that" rabbit hole I finally reached the option of press 0 to talk to the agent, and then I got the automated message stating that they can't answer my call please try again later.

Hello,

I applied for a study permit extension on April 8, 2022, and I have received no updates so far. My eligibility review hasn't even been started yet. Is this normal? Anyone else in the same boat?

My son applied in March, but no update online yet, I sent a web form and they said they mailed me a letter in May, however, I never received it, and I have requested to resent the letter. They didn't mention what the letter is about, do you guys have any idea?

Did you receive any message or update in gckey?

No, it's still processing the application, so it is a bit strange.
