okay thanks, I submitted one with my application, so I guess I might not be asked again.

Congrats again.

mamatee2:
Thank you. I had to go online to see sample templates so I can know how to draft it. I didn't have an idea how it looks like, now I know.
I didn't submit any consent letter, the reason they have requested for it. I will be sending it to them later today.

I also sent a mail to the MP of my school location, but he responded saying he must prioritize individuals residing in the riding and since I don't currently reside in the riding, I should submit any future inquiries to IRCC directly. In the future, once I become a resident he would be happy to assist me.

Thank you to everyone for all your contributions on this platform. May the Lord grant each and everyone's heart desires. As you water, so shall you be watered back in Jesus name.

And to God of completion who makes all things beautiful in his time, to Him alone be all the glory!
This journey is all by God's grace and his mercy for the race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong.
I pray for everyone still waiting on God for their PPR, may the Lord bring it to fruition. Amen.

Congratulations to yoursister. Please how do you raise a webform to inquire the status of the application?

Writing this on behalf of my sister to encourage someone here.

The US denied her students visa 4 times. We decided to try Canada since the US refused to give her visa. She received admission into 2 university out of the 3 she applied to.

Here’s her Timeline
April 26——Study permit Application submitted with upfront medical.
April 28—— Did her Biometric.
May 6 —— NSE request
May 12—— Reasons why she can’t go through NSE was received (sponsor lives in the US and English exam was waived for her). All with evidence.
May 28——- Applied for GCMS note
July 2 ———- GCMS received but blank
July 5 ——- Applied for a new GCMS note
July 10 ——— Submitted a webform to ask for the status of the application.
July 20 ——- Webform received and told it has been forwarded to Nairobi.
July 21 —— Eligibility review started.
July 26—— PPR (Passport Request)
July 28 ——- Passport sent to Abuja
August 4 ——— Passport Stamped
August 5 ———- GCMS note received (visa approved).

Sister now in Canada
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 19 by mercy445: 12:19pm On Aug 10, 2021
Hi, I don't know so much but I can shed a little light on your first question. Your info sharing is in progress. Of you travelled to any of the five eyes country, Canada needs to receive information from them about details of when you were there, it's a form of background check. And if you look through your gcms note, there's a part that would list all info sharing and expected due dates. Those countries may not have given them the required info yet, in your case only US.
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 19 by mercy445: 10:55am On Aug 05, 2021
lawfree638:
There are two ways to know if your eligibility has started;

1. The summary assessment page (on page 2)
2. And the verification session on your note.

Due to the workload, the Case analyst might not update your summary page but eligibility has started (this explains why some people eligibility wouldn't start on the portal until the last date they received PPR) You will just notice that eligibility started in the morning and PPR was gotten a few hours later because it's not mandatory for them to update it.

However, the verification page is equally important as the summary assessment page because the case analyst must update it. (you will find your IELTS, MSB, EMPLOYMENT Verification here, LOA verification here, etc)

GCMS note is full of code. If you decode it you will have an idea of how your application is faring as at when it was generated.
Thank you so much, so helpful. Please where can I find verification; I will keep looking through it. Also found a link that helps with what to look out for.

Winner0718:
It simply means your eligibility has not started, However your application has passed the standard processing time as stated on IRCC website see the emails to their different offices you can send a reminder email twice a week.
Thank you so much, please do u by chance have any sample of such emails to send? or point me to a thread that talked about that, I just don't want to type anything.

This is so helpful thanks.

EmeeNaka:
Remember that the note you have is the information about your application as at the date the Request was Registered (Abt 30days ago) not the date the Request was generated. Bearing that in mind, it's possible that a lot has happened to your application since that time. If there is Assessment notes, you can state it,if not just keep praying and relax. There is nothing much you can do. Avoid uploading any documents that was not requested except if it is relevant due to assessment note you must have noticed in you GCMS notes.
You can also send Emails to Nairobi Office, and Lagos Office reminding them the need to complete your application on time. I believe they read our messages and takes note of it.
Thank you so much for your response; shows note was generated July 22 actually. Thanks for the info I appreciate it.

Congratulations to all PPR holders, and those of us waiting!

Good morning everyone, I received my gcms note this morning. I would appreciate it if anyone points me to any post that explains what to look out for. Eligibility is blank, the primary office is Nairobi (how can I send them an email).
What caught my attention the most is how many times my file has been transferred (Accra, Lagos, Beijing, Nairobi, London, Ho Chi Minh. Also under notes, no words just note 1 to 4 detailing school info.

I will appreciate any help PLEASE.
Info sharing says in progress
3rd page that says application assignment shows a due date of June 13th
May 5 applicant.

Oh wow thank u so much, I almost thought I was the only one. Are you NSE route? I will keep on touch to know how you proceed.I really do hope my eligibility starts soon.

Are you likely to change to fall if u get it early or u just wait till January?

Do you mean January 2022 admission ?
Yes please that's a typo January 22

Good day all,

HUGE congrats to everyone who has received PPRs many more to come to everyone waiting.

Please is there any January 22 admission here who applied in May. I just really feel I should have changed my LOA to fall.

Also wondering if it makes any sense to start classes online?

May 5th applicant, no eligibility review yet.

Thanks

TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 19 by mercy445: 9:04am On Jul 14, 2021
Morning all,

Congrats in advance to PPR hopefuls.

Please I have a quick question. For those who did biometrics for a previous application. When you open study application, did your biometrics ever changed from 'we do not need your biometrics, if we do we will contact you. Though my previous biometrics shows on the right side when viewing on a laptop but that part under my application hasn't changed.

I want to be sure it's okay for it to stay that way or I have to do something so it states the date of my biometrics.

May application, medical passed June 15th.

I anticipate a response...I still don't know au to use this platform.

Your Letter of Introduction (LOI) will be sent to you after your passport has been stamp at VAC Abuja/Lagos, print it and attach it to the email you’ll be sending to school for LOA reconsideration.

Just leave everything as it is now, of you get approval before fall, simply request for the new LOA if not work with the winter term

All is well
okay thank you for your advice.
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 19 by mercy445: 6:09pm On Jun 30, 2021
RichieJayy:
Wait for your visa. When you eventually get your visa before fall semester, send an email to your school to reconsider you for fall semester with a proof of TRV approval (I used LOI in this regard). They might just reconsider you and give you a new LOA for fall. This worked for me.
Thank you so much for your response. Please why did you need LOI? Did u use that to support TRV to the school so they can give you a new LOA?

Thanks

Congrats to all PPR recipients. I am new here and I hope this gets posted.

May applicant: my admission letter was suppose to be fall but before ircc reduced processing time I as scared I won't make fall, so I told the school to give me letter for January 2022 instead (they had not issued for fall then).
Now I think my application may not be treated soon because I am not for fall (or am I overthinking it?) meanwhile when I asked school fora new admission letter for fall they said if I get visa before fall they are willing to consider.

I really wouldn't mind fall resumption,should I still ask school for another letter? Or just hope they treat my file.Eligibility yet to start.

Please I hope I get your thoughts PLEASE.
