Where did they have asked to send the passport as all VAC and VFS are closed
As per the VFS global website , all application centers will remain closed in India till 31st May . So , I am also waiting for them to open . As a matter of concern I will try to raise this question with Delhi immigration office .

I am seeing ur posts from much time. I also applied my study permit in the start of March SDS. Can I please know what's mentioned in your GCMS notes. Can you please share all the correspondence written in GCMS notes. I m also very anxious about my file.
the gcms notes contain confidential information but you can see a sample file at sample.gcmsnotes.com it takes about 30 days to receive the information from ircc, in some cases it can take longer

Hi, I got my student visa before March 18, if my classes would start online by fall 2020 and that I am exempt from travel restrictions, is it possible for me to travel by month of August..? Somebody guide me with this..

normally it takes about 30 days but with reduced visa activity due to covid-19 some gcmsnotes are coming through much faster. the processing time has not been consistent, prior to covid-19 it was taking 30+60 or 30+90 days even. then at the height of covid-19 ircc mentioned they had reduced operational capacity to process requests and now some files are coming through in 2 to 3 weeks. there is no way to expedite the processing for any 3rd party website or any individual (in canada or not).

I applied for my visa on 24 Jan and biometrics on 28 Jan Under SDS category. I haven't got any reply after that. Can i apply for gcms notes and how to do that
You can apply for the notes in a number of ways; if in-land for free at https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/welcome.do?lang=en if outland then you can seek the help of a Canadian friend/relative to request on your behalf and the process is much the same with a fee of $5

Happy to hear that you got visa before the problem starts. But it's recommended to communicate with your college administration department frequently for more updates about your studies as rules are changing here in Canada because of this pandemic.
