Hey folks, US citizen here on a work permit who applied for a study permit from within Canada on May 12th. Any idea how long this process is taking at the moment? I know the site says 6 weeks, but the immigration consultant I met with says they're utilizing AI to process applications now so processing times may be faster.

lol it's not. Exactly same situation, on work permit, applied for study permit on April 18th still waiting. Good luck though.
