what is the correspondence letter? Is it the letter notifying the biometrics information? , and if so, I got it on April 1 from Ottawa, still waiting for the final decision.
Initially, I submitted my biometrics in 2017, so IRCC collected the biometrics information (correspondence letter from Ottawa) on April 1, which was 6 days after submitting the study permit application (submitted on March 25).
Yes, that is the one!! We are in the same boat though. Couples of updates: I spoke to one of the RCIC consultant - he said the estimated processing time is not accurate during this interruption and expecting of some changes from IRCC in the upcoming weeks in August.
I submitted my complete application on 14th July. Does it mean I can get final decision in August?
I am not 100% sure about the final decision in August. I am pretty sure (if you attend the webminar by IRCC days ago) that IRCC's aim to pass as much of applications to stage 1 - prior approval. For complete applications, they say they will process (but I think the answer on webminar by IRCC is still vague - I am just waiting for August's updates).
Unfortunately, no. I have not even got my biometric correspondence letter yet since Jul 13. How about you?
I am still waiting for any update since I got my correspondence letter on April 1.
I am quite uncertain now. It is August, and we are waiting so hard and long. Do not know what they call this "priority" as they said before!!
On the website, they say that is how long it takes them to process applications in the past... Now, it probably will take even longer. However, the majority of us submitted our application a few months ago, so I don't know if this apply to us.I just saw that the processing time for study permit applied from U.S. is now updated to 19 weeks!!!....
