raymege:
I don't think its appropriate sending a mail about an application if it hasn't exceeded the processing time.
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 16 by ca12: 10:49am On Aug 10, 2019

Yea
sterlingwaterlo:
i guess its not ready for pick up
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 16 by ca12: 1:50pm On Aug 08, 2019
Ok thanks
Just says application has been finalized.

So maybe I would just wait for vfs to send me a mail for collection or cic to send me an approval mail.
I m just confused on what *application has been finalized* means
mcobex:
Normally VFS will send you an email asking you to go for your passport. But if you have spare time you can always check up on them to ask(you might be lucky to find your passport ready for collection)
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 16 by ca12: 1:45pm On Aug 08, 2019
Still says application at Canadian visa office
sterlingwaterlo:
did u track it with the tracking number given to u at vfs? What's it saying?
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 16 by ca12: 1:37pm On Aug 08, 2019
It still says application under review online.

This may help someone
May 10th applicant
Medical request June 28
Did medicals July 4 and linked application online. Medicals updated to passed on July 12
Application pending and eligibility review not started.
Then the wait started
Up till August 2nd, no update on application and eligibility review had not yet started.
Then I sent out a web form and a mail to Nairobi office. Saw the mails listed on page 128.
August 6th, I received a follow up mail asking me to go do medicals and that if they do not hear from me in 15 days, I stand to be denied my visa.
Was very furious ehn.
Then started sending out every single mail I could send and also sent a mail to the hospital. Thank God IOM responded on time with a copy of the sent medical result as proof. I then sent this copy in a new mail and also filled the web form to Nairobi specifically,”.
This morning August 7th,I got the BVL letter and eligibility review has started.
So imagine this guys someone did not do his work well and just left my application on hold. Aahhhh
Well, I trust God that I would get my visa in two days time.
So if your application is overdue, pls send a mail because human error could cause a delay.
I don’t know who saw my post yesterday, I guess no one had a response to it but I hope this post passes some info for someone that has been waiting for long.
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 16 by ca12: 12:42pm On Aug 06, 2019
