Well i presume, right-now, they are going through completed cases again to double check and in the long-term, i is obvious that rules and eligibility will get tighter and harder. For eg, they could place student visa quotas or limiting how long a person can stay on a student visa. Extention restrictions?

possibilites are endless.

After it re-opens, i presume, checks will be much more thourough and will take a longer time to process.

but, hey, that's just what i think!

I guess, your application will still be processed but may take longer. They are no longer taking NEW applications.

There is a bit more detail on this BHC webpage.

So joh118, I regret to say that your guess is not correct.

So the cut off date is 1st Febuary and after that no application will be processed or can be made.
