Don't apply for a job at a company that is not in or too far from a city where you live now. Don't apply everywhere on the internet. Some crooks will get hold of your resume.

There are basically two different business sectors: native Canadian-owned business and ethnic Canadian owned relatively small business. If you're colored and/or weren't educated in Canada, it's very hard to get a job in the former, and it's also hard to get a job in the latter unless you have...

Why are you trying to get a CA WP? Didn't you hear there are no jobs in Canada? Most CA PRs are trying to move to the US once they get CA CIT because there are no decent jobs here. Unless you want minimum pay manual labor jobs, come to Canada. Otherwise, stay where you are.

What did you do in Vegas? There are many many young unemployed kids here looking for the same kind of minimum pay jobs you want, but I have seen many old people still work at places like Walmart, especially old ladies, some out of shape. If you can speak proper English and don't look or act like...

Any idea why you guys got RQ?

I heard so many people getting RQ at test center because they have simply US visa stamps, not to mention US visas B1, H1B, F1. I heard if you have US PR, it's automatic RQ.

I am very surprised you didn't get RQ at the test center. I'll be also very surprised if you are invited to an oath ceremony without getting RQ.

Just relax. Do what you were asked to do. Everyone gets the same RQ form. Only your wife got RQ? How about you? Where is your file?

I guess you lived in the same address for five yrs. That helps too.

Glad you like Windsor. What I heard is the opposite. That is, it's one of the most polluted cities in Canada--the air quality is terrible. So I guess you got your MA or MS from Windsor and then got a job after graduation. You think you have a nice job. Then it must be a good one. Mind if I ask...

I know many people with a similar travel history who got RQ. I think you were very lucky. Did you go to the U of Windsor for undergrad or grad school?

Do you happen to have a nice job? I don't think Windsor is known for good jobs. It's an impoverished factory town, isn't it? Just trying to figure out why some people get citizenship in 8 mo while others have to wait for 24 mo or more.

Then it's from Sydney. I guess your file had been in Sydney from Dec. 3 the date your file status changed to In Process to Feb. 1 2013 the date you got RQ.

Did the agent tell you at that time that your file was transferred to local office? Or he just said your local office is Scarborough?

How did you find it out? Did a call centre agent tell you that?

No, check the envelope. The letter always says, Send your RQ to local office (Scarborough in your case).

Did you get it from your local office?

Did you also go to school here in Canada? And also got PR as a FSW?

I'm almost certain you are a female applicant. And also not married, right?

Do you have any idea why it took 13 mo to get a test date after CIC started processing your file?
