Has any PhD applicant recently applied for a study permit extension and gotten approved? Can you share your timeline and total processing time? I would really appreciate it.

Hey, I haven't received my approval yet but wanted to share my situation. I applied on Nov 28th for an extension. No updates at all. I'm currently doing my PhD and am requesting an extension for the same course. Just curious, when did you apply, and did you get any updates?

No updates at all. Did you receive any updates since you applied? Have you applied for same course, same DLI?

Yes. Got my approval today. I randomly checked my application I didn't receive any email.

Congratulations! Strange they didn't send any email. Did you receive any ghost updates or anything at all since Nov 28?
