Have any UAE Residents here in this forum Applied for Canada Study Permit from Abu Dhabi and got approval?
I believe there are a few people who got approval(PPR). It all depends on your profile, specially choice of program, university/college, age, home ties etc etc.

Any December applicants here who have received any updates ? So far nothing has started for me.
I was not able to login to my GCkey today. I don’t see any notice of website maintenance. I believe, It usually happens when they are reviewing our files. Mostly after this I see a application/profile update. Waiting for a decision soon.

Has anyone here raised a webform for review not being started. It is going to be 8 weeks since I applied and my application still shows in progress.

Was wondering if raising a webform is worth it ?

I didn’t do medical. We don’t need medical when we apply from GCC if we have not travelled to any designated countries in last 6 months and also depends on our program, if we have applied for a program in medical field it’s better to do upfront medical.

I have just lodged my application for Study Permit through online from Dubai. When do you guys think I’ll receive the first update? I’m so anxious.

Welcome to wait game :) It depends if you put your country of residence as Dubai or PH. Then you processing timelines will be different. Currently, there is no clear trend, everything is pretty random and vague and more like a lucky draw. Some people have got decision in 1 to 2 months and some are waiting over 6 months.

I have indicated my residence as Dubai. I don’t know if that was a good move or not. My anxiety level is off the charts. It’s only been 24 hours since I submitted, I’ll probably go insane soon Hahaha! But kidding aside, I am so nervous.

Welcome to the wait game. Your application will be processed by ADB officers. I personally waited for 8 months to get my study permit. But if your profile is strong, you dont need to worry. Sooner or later you will get your SP.

In your SOP did you mentioned that you will return UAE or Philipines after studies?
