Thanks, helps in setting my expectations. I guess you had done upfront medicals right? So if all goes well I guess I should receive medical request before reaching the final stage of approval.

Hello. Thanks for your feedback. I did infact check it yesterday & managed to get a slot for today. Just returned after giving BIO in Dubai. May I know how long it took for the status to be updated on your GCKEY and what should I expect next to happen.

If you don't mind, may I ask which intake have you applied - is it for May or September 2021. This will help me to plan my study permit application timeline, as I have LOA for Fall 2021 from the college.

My UNI has a special intake for July next year due to lot of deferments this year. Many suggested to apply as early as possible considering the long delays.

Thanks Shane for the info. Pray you get your PPR soon. If you don't mind me asking how long have you been in UAE and what is your country of citizenship. This part is making me nervous about home ties, etc.

what is the reason of refusal
family ties in canada and homecountry (i dont have any relative in canada and was leaving my children husband and parents family everyone in home country...but still this was one of the reason)
employment in your country (Since i have gap)
