Hi everyone. I had filled out and online application for a study permit + co-op from within Canada. Today I received the message on my account that my application has been approved. However on the confirmation letter it says: Summery of documents issued:
Permit - WP-Ext. & eTA.
It doesn’t list the study permit.
I haven’t received any mail with the visas yet. It can take up to 6 weeks to receive it. I just wanted to be sure if I will receive the study visa. Does anyone know why the study permit wasn’t listed/ experienced the same? Also why does it say Work permit extension for the co op?

Kind regards
Mina

Was it an extension ?
The processing time of the WP (38 days) is less than the SP(10 weeks).
Probably they approved WP first, however since they approved your WP , you would have no issue in the SP approval I guess.

No it is not an extension I’m applying for both the first time. That’s why I’m so confused.

Try to call them, but I don't find a reason for you to worry , you have one approved, this means the other one would be approved by default.

Hey can you let me know when did you apply for extension? I applied back in Mid- January, no update so far. Also did you attach a supporting letter to explain your situation? Thanks
