Try linking your paper application to your online account. Do see the background checks status after you link it

Yes, you can apply for a study permit.

You could first email the Lagos visa office to ask about the status of your TRV application

@Bryanna please I need your advice,I applied for Canadian visit visa with my husband on July 2018,however I requested for a passport withdrawal without cancelling my application.I used a passport withdrawal sample letter I saw on this forum in writing mine.I got a text this morning saying I should come pick up my passport at VFS Abuja.When I called customer care to ask about my husband's application,the said his own is still been processed and mine was cancelled since i requested for a passport withdrawal.Now am sad and confused coz my bank called last week asking if I submitted my bank statement at the Canadian embassy.My question is why cancel my application when I only asked for my passport to be returned since I have urgent travel to the UK?why cancel the application and still call my bank to verify bank statement?Pls @Bryanna,what's your take on this issue?

No, that is not true if you have specifically informed the Lagos visa office that you will re-submit your passport whenever requested to make a decision.

Hope you mentioned in the email/letter that you require your passport for urgent travel to the UK + you clearly stated that you are not cancelling your application.

I suggest you email the Lagos visa office to reconfirm that your application is being processed + you could include a copy of your plane tickets to the UK.

It seems a bit off topic:
1. Why did you bank call you to ask if you had submitted the bank statement?
2. Did the visa office contact the bank?
