Applicants’ Response To This Update
@CanadainIndia contacting college is not the solution they are only suggesting to deffer, which will ruin one year of students like me. There should be some extension from @CitImmCanada side so that college can take decision in students favour. Otherwise this tweet is meaningless

Yes exactly, Deferral is the only option left for us. Some kind of extension must be provided. I have lodged my file on 20th may and still not received the result. @CitImmCanada pls take this into consideration that we have done our process on time and now we have to suffer also.
Rajveer Thaker, Study Visa Applicant
Can you please issue a notice to the universities for the same as they are not cooperating. We have a lot at stake. What about the students whose program merely offers one intake. Please look into it. Receiving the visa one week late should not result in me deferring for an year.
