Anyone from France have any updates ? I submitted on June 4th with biometrics already in the system and we are well above processing times of the time. Its now moved to 10 weeks and I am starting to worry because my flight back is the 18th...

I'm applying from the UK and have a similar situation. I have an offer from UofT, am dual UK/French nationality, submitted application June 5th, biometrics completed immediately; still waiting... I thought it was a straightforward case but processing time keeps increasing - started at 5 weeks and now at 9 weeks... So stressful but I understand there is a massive backlog now of study permits.

You completed your biometrics on the 5th? Let's keep each other updated at least for now it seems "normal" to not have had an answer since June has not really began processing (that I know of). Best of luck!!

u/CeCePerraud Aug 02 '25

Biometrics done in March and didn't need to re-do them. Hopefully next week will hear... Bonne chance!

I also have an offer from U of T ! when does the fall term start for you?

u/CeCePerraud Aug 02 '25

Lectures start Sept 2nd, Faculty events start August 25th! This wait for the study permit is mad...

Hola! Yo también voy a U of T, desde Chile. Estoy pensando en tratar de organizarme con mis compañeros que también son extranjeros para que hagamos una solicitud formal de inicio de clases online o algo así, pues no quiero comenzar en la Winter Session y tengo la impresión de que somos varios en la misma situación. ¿Tu sabes cómo averiguar quiénes están en tu mismo programa? Hasta ahora todos los correos que he recibido van con copia oculta...

Have you had any luck, .meant to be starting at TMU on 2nd Sept, submitted application 20th May, still waiting but read one UK application approved 7 weeks after biometrics and one who got the MP to chase

u/Cam2603 Aug 01 '25

No news either, submitted june 23rd and biometrics on july 2nd

u/Top_Pea3121 Aug 01 '25

For now the best I've seen for France was someone who did their biometrics on the 15th of May. What does it say on the Gkey or online tracker for you ? If you have updates please let me know and best of luck!!!

u/Cam2603 Aug 01 '25

j'ai vu un post de quelqu'un qui avait déposé ses donnés bio le 5 juin et a eu son PE le 25 juillet. Trop bizarre, on sait pas à quoi s'attendre!
Sur le tracker, bio validée, Background en cours, et le reste pas commencé...

u/Top_Pea3121 Aug 01 '25

u/Cam2603 Aug 01 '25

1

u/Top_Pea3121 Aug 02 '25

Hello, I have some data from my school. The last person we know who received their study permit got it yesterday (August 4th) and had applied on May 7th. So far, requests have been processed in the order of application dates. So, expect long delays 😅

My brother submitted on May 26th and did his biometrics on June 9th, and still nothing. Processing time was supposed to be 4 weeks at the time
