    Need Advice on Securing a Tuition Deposit Refund and Potential Implications of Not Submitting Passport

    You should clarify directly with your university; most policies don’t treat abandonment as denial, so it's better to negotiate refund options first!

    Retroactive CCB Payouts?

    You’ll likely get a lump sum from August 2024 onward once approved. Just ensure taxes are filed and RS66 is submitted; no extra forms are usually needed!

    I’m in the same boat. The offer was received quickly, but there is no PAL update yet. Maybe try emailing the admissions office directly for clarity.
