I lodged the student visa through SDS category from China. I have waited for 9 weeks since April 2020, no response.

I suggest you to submit your application as soon as possible as there are so many applications in a row. If you will submit then within 48 hours you will get bio-metric request so whenever VFS open , you just need to book appointment for bio-metric and your further process will start but apply as soon as possible if you are planning for FALL 2020.

I am accepted into the post graduate program in Canada. For that, I want to apply for study permit under SDS program. All documents like GIC, tuition fees paid proof, police certificate, IELTS result card are ready to submit except upfront medical exam due to closure of health immigration centres, I can't get appointment for upfront medical exam. I want to inquire that, can i apply for SDS program online, without submitting upfront medical exam or not. Will my application will be rejected on not giving upfront medical exam or will be on hold until I provide upfront medical exam on services resumption. Kindly tell me what possibilities might be.

it won't be rejected, you can still apply online without submiting medical upfront.

"Examples of missing documents include, but are not limited to

upfront medical results
police certificates
guaranteed investment certificates
proof of full payment of tuition for the applicant’s first year of study
language test results
educational transcripts
valid travel document (such as a passport)
Quebec Acceptance Certificate (CAQ) from the Ministère de l’Immigration, de la Francisation et de l’Intégration (MIFI), if applicable
If an SDS application is missing any of the above documents and is held for processing by CPC-E, officers must input the following for tracking purposes:

Organization ID: O144673299157
Other Description: SDS applications held for missing documents
Name: SDS Apps Missing Docs - Coronavirus 2020
Officers may refer an application to the migration office only in the following situations:

the applicant is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident (CPC-E to remove special program code)
there are documents that require translation (CPC-E to remove special program code)
there are adverse admissibility concerns, including adverse medical results (special program code is not to be removed)
Applicants who do not have the required documents for the SDS upon submitting their application should be directed to apply through regular study permit channels or apply through the SDS once services resume and they are able to submit the required documents".
But IRCC is confusing, at the start they said we will hold application but at the end they said don't apply.

yes i saw that . Now they declared students who are applying in online, they will process the visa request. But they should clear up the paper based applications very soon . As we are waiting for very long :(
As of now they already cleared. Bangladeshi students must apply online visa application until further notice. No paper based application will be accepted for the time being.
