thanks for the advise....question though if I defer until Jan 2021 will that affect the processing of my student Visa? meaning will I have to send new documents to IRCC or do i have to advise them in any way?Hi guys, sorry to hear about your situation. I can only imagine how all of you must be feeling so am going to be a nosy Jamaican here and provide some unsolicited advice. Here goes:
Most, if not all, of the schools here have gone online with classes for this semester. They are aware of the situation taking place with COVID-19 and the limits it has placed on getting back to normal, including international students getting their permits, etc. to enter the country.
So, I suggest you speak with your admissions advisors or counselors (if you have not done so yet) and ask if your studies could be deferred until next semester (January). My reasoning is, IRCC has strict guidelines regarding how much of your classes can be taken online in order to maintain full time international student status if you which to remain in the country after studies and later gain a PGWP.
There might still be time for some of you whose studies start in September but for August people, I am doubtful. I do believe in miracles, so fingers cross you will hear something by next week. Otherwise, think about the option of deferring before asking for a refund.
Good luck !
