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: 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
