Hi all,
Looking through this forum, it's hard to find East Africans' (Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Sudan) study permit application experiences. Although the other African (Nigeria & Ghana) threads are informative, the processing times and requirements are a little different.

I applied in February (May entry), still waiting for an update.

If you were go to vfc website then track your application..but I think it's already been submitted you should wait 4 to 6 weeks

They have returned my application without a message.
Did you include everything required? Did they check your docs at VFS for completeness? You should send a webform to IRCC and also send email to the visa office if you know which one was processing your application.

That is just a generic rejection that they give to almost everyone.

Yap VFS checked it thoroughly.I don't know if it is an error or what.
