Hey guys, I used to follow this forum long ago! Just wondering if there were any successful application for phd stream from Quebec so far?! Cheers!

I'm stuck in a dilemma! MICC received my doc in June 2013 and yet I haven't received AOR! So, I assume I will be considered under the new rules! This means that I lose 6 points in the French requirements! However, my bachelor is added to the AOT list for 6 points! But, my bachelor was less than...

This doesn't make any sense!!! how irrational they could be...

Hey guys, My application was delivered to the immigration office on June 25th, and apparently the new rules will be applied to my case. I scored A2 in both listening and speaking and according to the new regulations I won't get any points, therefore, I won't be eligible for the interview (I'll...

Hey guys, Does anyone have an email contact to an immigration officer? I need to ask how a Quebec phd student can support his/her claim regarding not living in Quebec after finishing studies!! Tanx

Do you think having a family (PR) living in Ontario would be a good reason to show your intentions to live outside of Quebec? Is there any PhD streamer from Quebec who got his/her PR?

Hi, I appreciate it if someone can comment on the proof of financial support. Is it enough to just provide a bank statement mentioning the account balance for a specific date (i.e. 15 January 2013); or I have to submit a transaction history for a period of time (i.e. 3 months). Does the TA/RA...

Thank you asbereth for your complete answer. In the case of 5 points for two years of studies in Canada, I'm a bit surprised! According to CIC website (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/factor-adaptability.asp), it clearly mentions "There is no need to have obtained a degree or...

Thanks for the reply TyruX. I think I will get the 5 points since I completed two years of studies (PhD) in Canada within those three years, don't I? And additional 5 for the family in Canada.

Hey guys, I appreciate it if you can clear the air on the topic that if the RA would be counted as the work experience even if it's while you are enrolled as a student!! Here is my self-assessment points: 1- Education: 25 (PhD student) 2- language: 14 (IELTS: listening & Reading: 6.5, Writing...

Thanks for the reply. Also, is there anyone here who applied under the phd stream from Quebec? I'm a phd candidate at McGill in Montreal, and have no intention of staying here after my studies whatsoever. So, i'm curious to know if anyone from Quebec has directly applied for the FSWP (without...

Hi all, I read few posts mentioning that the 1000 cap for phd stream (starting Nov, 2012) has been reached. Is that right? I'm planning to submit my application in mid January 2013, since that's when I will be done with my second year. Cheers,

I submitted my application on December 1st.
