But I didn’t get the poe letter yet, is that normal?
You'll get the letter when your passport is stamped. You'll get an email once that's done. If you got the passport request in your online application then that's pretty much it. They have already decided to approve you. Can you share your profile with others so that future applicants can benefit from it?

But I already got a message from vfs saying documents have been dispatched, the passport too, I applied paper based so do you think the loi will be included with my passport when I receive it through courier?

Kindly check your gc key again. There will be a correspondence letter in there. If there isn't then i think they will send one too with the passport.

I didn’t link my account to it, can I do that right now? After a decision has been made? Or should I just wait for the passport?

You can link anytime;

Create a new GC Key account. On the link https://www.canada.ca/en/services/immigration-citizenship.html, click "Sign in or create an account to apply online" on right and go down a little to "continue to GC Key" and click it. Now click "Sign Up" on the right and create a new profile. Remember the answers to the security questions that you'd be setting at this time.
Once that's done, login again and click "Add (link) your application to your account " on the User's account page.
Select category as "temporary residence" and sub-category as TRV. Under "Application details" select last option. Enter UCI, no hyphens and no space. Enter Family Name as last name on passport (upper/lower case matters). Next, select passport form drop down.
Enter all other fields as filled in application form. And click "search my application". If all fields are correct it will give you the application and you can proceed with linking it. If not, it give you 4 more attempts in 24 hours and then it would ask you to try again after 24 hours.

Nope, paper based. Okay so I linked the account and it says the status is approved but where can I get the loi from? The messages section is empty too, please help.
I think it'll come with the passport since you didn't apply online so relax and wait for it.

Hello,

I just got an interview request--the letter from Immigration Section (Abu Dhabi) mentions that it is being conducted for "quality assurance" of my application. My first application was rejected on the grounds that I had submitted an Approval Letter and not a Letter of Acceptance. I reapplied on 30th May 2019 with a letter of explanation from the University of Toronto to confirm my acceptance into the Master's Program for Fall 2019. Additionally, I attached an SOP.

I've heard that interview requests are extremely rare in the case of study permits so I am quite anxious at this point--I would just like to know what applicants on this Forum think; is this interview request a bad thing? Has anyone received their Visa approval letter after the interview?

My biometrics validity letter was received on 15th May, 2019. I have not yet received a request for Medical.

I have applied from Pakistan. I received my Bachelor's degree in May 2018 from the University of Massachusetts in the United States.

Looking forward to hearing from you all.

Thanks!
