can calling IRCC to ask for updates affect the application negatively?

Does calling IRCC to ask for updates regarding application have negative effects? and how do you call them from the US? What information should you give them when you call so that they know which application you're talking about.

My friend, you have lodged your application only March 6 if I remember correctly. The TAT of applications being processed in UAE is 13 weeks, until and unless your application process passed that time frame, I would suggest you relax and wait for the development of the application since it is still in the processing time indicated in website.

Sorry I have just checked, your application lodged Feb 15, I applied only 2 days after you, I am still on Eligibility Review only since March 9.

But I still advise you to relax since it’s only been 1 month and 1 week since submission of application. VOs had been prioritizing backlogs from last year.

Why do you want to ring them? Just be patient and wait like everybody else

Not sure what information you are expecting to receive. There isn’t really much that you can receive updates on.

We all are waiting. IRCC says it would take up to 13weeks for them to process study permit applications from UAE. So no worries..
