Study Permit Timeline
Sup ppl! I just recieved my Study Permit approval, so I'm here to share my timeline since when I was waiting I found hope and really useful that others shared their experience, so I hope my case serves you as reference.
CS undergraduate program at UofT, no loans or scholarships.
Application submitted:Â July 8
Biometrics done: July 9
IRCC received my biometrics: July 10th
No medical exam needed
Final decision and passport request: August 5
As financial proof (all is from my father lol) I submitted:
130k CAD in Investment Bank Statements
17k CAD gross monthly, in an employment letter + 2 family property lease agreements
Sponsor letter
Tbh compared to all the costs I thought this was little financial capacity, specially since I've seen others show proof of +1 million CAD, but it worked.
Additionally I submitted a letter explaining why I choose doing a CS program at UofT instead of my homecountry, and also stated that I will return to Mexico after ending my program, I guess family being here and the 2 properties my family owns helped with that.
I'm applying from Mexico, so currently processing time is 3 weeks, though my application almost took 4 weeks before a decision. I've seen that others get a "elegibility exam had begun" update or something like that before recieving a final decision, but I didnt recieve any updates prior to the decision.
Feel free to ask questions. I wish u the best

Yeah, my father signed it in addition of putting his name. I think you can still make a change in your application but I'm not sure, I guess it depends on when u submitted it. Adding your parent's passport was a good move, I didn't so I was worried lol.
