That line "we will let u know of the final decision aapproved or refused" is like the year 2020, u don't exactly know what you are getting into!!
Exactly it's like a 2 stage approval.. but my concern is why would I fall under that category as I have given my biometrics n medicals

While the COVID-19 pandemic has presented a number of challenges world-wide, Canada’s whole-of-government approach is aimed at protecting the health of Canadians while minimizing the economic and social impact of restrictions. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada has implemented a temporary two-stage process to provide an update to international students who have not yet been able to provide all the required documents or information needed to have their application fully assessed in time for the fall semester.



You are receiving this notification as an officer has reviewed the information and documents you provided to support your study permit application. Based on this preliminary eligibility assessment, your application has advanced to the next stage of processing.



Additional information and documentation may be required in order to continue processing your application. If we previously requested that you complete biometrics and/or a medical examination and submit a police certificate, please do so as soon as you are able to. If you have not received a request from us for additional information or documents, please await further instructions.



Once we have received all requested information and documents, we will complete our assessment of your application and we will inform you of the final decision (approved or refused) made on your application.



While you await a final decision on your application you may commence your studies online.



If you are a representative who has received this notification, please ensure to advise your client(s) of this important information.





Thank you,



Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada

I feel the VFS now will review all the stages. As the IRCC part was to review only eligibility so after finalizing I'll get an update

I have already submitted everything including biom, medical and police clearance so I m in the same situation like yours just have to wait for final approval but there is hope that travel resrtriction for international student will be uplifted soon as per the new update yesterday.

Exclusive: Canada may lift international student travel restrictionsCIC News has obtained a letter that suggests the Canadian government is looking at ways to welcome more international students for the fall 2020 semester
