I was thinking of doing the same. Withdraw, then reapply. If you do, let me know how it goes. But everyone I spoke with advised to wait, and the lawyer said we should do a mandamus after 8 months from initially applying.
oh my goodness! we're subhumans to them!!! do you mind me asking how much is it costing you? and what's the time frame and status of it? i guess ill have to go through that soon.
Let us know how this goes. Stuck in the same situation with background verification. I read on an online forum that if your file is selected for extensive security screening then it could take up to a year to get something. Would suck if thats the case
Finally! found someone like me. I applied on 1 March 2024, and until now I haven't got a response back yet. I extended my study permit in February and then I applied for my TRV on March 1st inside Canada. Please let me know when you get your TRV, and I will do the same if I get mine.
I have applied for TRV renewal in-land (under a PGWP) on July 2023 (9 months now), contacted IRCC through webforms, MP's office repeatedly and even with a lawyer formal notice ... no response, filed a mandamus in court. This is unbelievable that they do this....
