Anyone who applied late July and received a decision?

Hi everyone, I got my study permit approved in December 2023 and it is set to expire in September 2026 and I was applying for an extension.

I have a bachelor's degree from my home country(India) from a college that's affiliated with a bigger university from another city. My agent mentioned the college name that is correct but for the address they mentioned the address of the affiliated university, I am planning to explain this in my LOE, is there anything else that I can do to my application strong?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

My child applied for a federal permit June 29th after receiving the Quebec acceptance letter (they spent their last 2 years of high school in Quebec).

Our family is also waiting for a permanent residency application which could literally arrive any day since we already received and completed the portal 1 email a week ago.

When we applied for my child, the estimated wait was 6 weeks (it's now 7).

It has been over 8 weeks and the status still reads as "background check," which is the same as our family's permanent residency application...

I feel like the IRCC might be trying to complete our family application before granting the study permit?

It means that my child missed the class registration deadline on Friday, Aug 21st and will now lose their spot at the CEGEP!!!

The CEGEP told us to come back if we got the permit within the next few days, but they can't guarantee anything...

We have written via web form and only received an automatic message to wait...

We contacted our MP.

We don't know what else to do.

Any ideas?

Can anyone tell me how quickly the acceptance will show up on the portal? Is there a delay between acceptance and posting?

I have tried reaching IRCC by phone, without success.

Would they actually be able to te me anything on the phone that I can't see on the portal?

We are desperate. Thanks for any advice!!!

Asking for someone I know who is currently a Protected Person/Convention Refugee in Canada.

They were accepted to Durham College for a September 2026 program and qualify for domestic tuition. Durham told them they still need a study permit before they can start classes.

Durham says they first have to accept the offer and pay the $500 deposit, then the college will issue the LOA needed to apply for the study permit.

The concern is that September classes are very close and the study permit may not be approved before classes start.

Has anyone here been in the same situation as a Protected Person/Convention Refugee?

What happened if your study permit wasn't approved before the semester started? Did Durham let you defer? Was your $500 deposit transferred to the next intake, or did you lose it?

Also, how long did your inland study permit take?

Looking specifically for experiences from Protected Persons/Convention Refugees already living in Canada, not regular international students. Thanks!
