According to the Operational Bulletin issued on 29 June 2012 ,"The current cap year for the PhD stream ends on October 31, 2012, and unless otherwise indicated in a future Ministerial Instruction, the cap will be automatically reset on November 1, 2012". I was wondering how this will impact the...

salam20 and ojohn22, Any news on the encashing of your CC/BD?

I got my birth certificate translated and certified, and also got an affidavit. As per instructions we cannot translate the documents ourselves, especially that require an affidavit and certification. But for that one document I had to pay quite a bit.

Hi hopeful4, I too applied for immigration in 2004. In 2010 I applied for student visa after getting admission in a Ph.d program. In 2009 my daughter also came to Canada on student visa. She too was part of the application in 2004. So immigration file does not affect your chances of a temporary...

I was planning to send my application and documents in one envelope. But Utopie's post has made me rethink. How did you guys send your documents? Is there a need to highlight and put stickers or just arrange them in the order of the checklist? Thanks Anjuku for your tips, I got 8 score in IELTS.

Anyone who didn't send the police clearance certificate along with the application, can you please tell me if you checked the box in the checklist and also if you wrote a cover letter that PC will be sent later?

Since the cap on applications has not been updated and people who have recently applied are still waiting for a response, does this mean the cap has been reached? We, who will be eligible to apply in Sept, are spending time to prepare our applications, but don't know the outcome.
