Hi guys,
Is anyone having same status as mine?
App Lodged: March 2020 - complete app including biometrics and medical.
AIP date received: Aug 15, 2020.
Started Online Classes for Sept 2020 intake.
School is listed in DLI list of approved for covid-19 readiness plan since October 20,2020.
Still no 2nd stage or final approval received.
What are they thinking? They have approved students for 2021 intake, but students like us, who are already taking online classes for sept2020 intake - they’re keeping and holding our apps!
They have also send me this email last oct 20, 2020:
The Government of Canada has announced changes to travel restrictions affecting those intending to study in Canada.
If you are a representative, please let your clients know about this important information.
You are receiving this notification because you have applied to study in Canada and passed the first-stage eligibility assessment.
While the COVID-19 pandemic has presented a number of challenges worldwide, Canada’s approach is aimed at protecting the health of Canadians and its residents while minimizing the economic and social impact of the health and travel restrictions.
After October 20, 2020, international students may travel to Canada only if they:
If you receive final approval, you will only be permitted to travel to Canada if your DLI is on the list of DLIs that have a COVID-19 readiness plan that has been approved by the province or territory where the DLI is located.
Measures are in place to allow you to maintain eligibility for the Post-Graduation Work Permit Program if you are studying online from abroad. We encourage you to review the IRCC website to receive the most up-to-date information affecting international students, including the list of DLIs that have an approved COVID-19 readiness plan. This list is updated regularly.
Thank you,
