Hi,

Hope you all are aware that there was an amendment done to the CSQ selection points on 8th March 2017 by MIDI. According to the new selection points I know many of us who applied during the time of June 2016 and August 2016 intake were impacted.

I guess many of them might have moved on and currently going ahead with new plans to immigrate. Those who not yet received any update or still on " waiting for treatment' in your submitted application, there is good news for you all.

You might be eligible for a refund of you fee that you paid for the CSQ application if you became ineligible due to the amendments done to the selection gird.

Pasting the key points of the verdict below which was issued by the Superior Court of Québec on February 19, 2018.

You can contact the below mentioned lawyer who is in charge of this case for more information.

Applied from August 2016, Application status still showing " Under Treatment", not received any checklist of documents, Please suggest what we should do, after March 8 , 2017 changes in point, I still have the required points, but I have not received the checklist of documents till now , so should I wait for documents (and opt out of class) or I should remain in class and get my refund.

If I get refund , than obviously , i am not in pool more, and will not get CSQ. But what , If I am still eligible in new point system , than whether I should opt out of class and wait for the documents or I should assume that I will not be treated and I should get my refund ?
Please suggest .

Am also bit confused after the message from MIDI. It looks like those who want to proceed with the application should mail the clerical department to exclude.

Important Note-all of candidates, who are waiting CSQ please take further action only after consulting senior Lawyers like David Cohen etc. It is also mentioned that those who lack points with new grid will get refund only after rejection. So if you have sufficient points and obviously will not get rejected , so you get CSQ. No need of refund then. So please clarify first and then take action. Not run behind personal rumours of people.....

I also received this notification. I am not sure if I am still eligible or not based on my points. Do you happen to know any points calculator online application?

As what I have understood with the information, if I think that I have sufficient points and I have not received the cheklist yet, then I need to opt out and mail them. If I think that I have insufficient points due to new poiint system, then it is better NOT to opt out to receive the reimbursement if the case favors on our side.

The risky part is that what if we opt out, but we have insufficient points?
