Lodged my paperbased application on Feb. 12 (VFS Makati, Philippines).
Medical passed on March 5.
Received BVL on Nov. 5.

My school was one of the first colleges to have their COVID readiness plan approved. Why is the final decision taking so long?

AIPs are only for online based application. Mine was paperbased so I didnt get an AIP.

Which country are you from? In my country, they didn't start processing paper applications until around (i think) late September.

It really is frustrating. 9 months of waiting already. And deadline for deferral in my school is Nov. 20, so if I don't get any message from IRCC then I might have to defer again.
