You aren't eligible for sds if you aren't living in pakistan
With dependants in your country already it will be easier to prove ties and convince them that you will return however you will have to explain why after such a long study gap you are pursuing education in Canada

I applied on 6 December sds second try with upfront medical and biometric already done in previous application,
Got medical passed on 09 Dec and transcript request , submitted same day,
Since then no update ,
Eligibility not started yet,

I'm thinking why they have not update my biometric since it was done in previous application and there should be no complications in it?
I was supposed to apply in November but gic took 1 month my bad.
Don't know what to do, not a single update is worrying ..
