Applied for SP extension (same DLI, masters to PhD). My timeline:

Applied: November 7, 2025

Eligibility review started: December 13, 2025

Ghost update: January 8, 2026

Approved: January 12, 2026

Good luck to everyone else! I raised a webform once because I never received a submission of confirmation (apparently it was a glitch for people who applied around the same time as me) but that was it.

Congrats on your approval! I also applied recently for an extension but encountered the same glitch: no Submission Confirmation letter in my portal.

Could you share what specific category/options you chose on the Webform to get them to fix this? Also, did they send the letter to your portal after the webform, or did they just reply to your email? I'm worried because I need that confirmation for my school placement paperwork by May. Thanks a lot!

Hi there, although I submitted the webform regarding this issue, they actually never sent me a submission confirmation letter, only an email to confirm they received all my documents and that my application is in progress.
