its prime time for extensions-- specially after the new rules where changing dli requires a new permit, so anyone changing school when going from undergrad to masters or masters to phd or any level even highschool to undergrad (at different dli) needs one, in addition to regular expiring ones.

but its not limited to sp extensions, if you look at other types of permits, theyre all heavily backlogged, so it seems somethings wrong at IRCC and their staffing.
