    Thread For applications Through SYDNEY (AUSTRALIA) Office

    It's a Certificate of Selection for Quebec and it's part of the process for those that live in Quebec. If you didn't go through Quebec and CIC, don't worry about it. :)

    Thread For applications Through SYDNEY (AUSTRALIA) Office

    Yes... Sydney VO requested a copy of the CSQ but I don't remember at what stage they asked for it. I think it was at the point when they told us to proceed with MICC and then to send them a copy once we got it. We emailed them a copy of the CSQ once we got it. It's probably faster to email it...

    It's plastic, waterproof, and more durable, unlike paper? And it fits in a wallet. :)

    Forms for MICC Immigration Québec

    Good question... :) We put in the date that we moved-in together because we had a lease / document to prove it even though we were going out together many years before that. By the time we applied for the sponsorship, we were already living together for more that the minimum requirement so it...

    Thread For applications Through SYDNEY (AUSTRALIA) Office

    Hi... I'd like to, but I really don't know what what to say. :/ I don't want to make you believe in something that's not true because I made a mistake in another thread and I felt bad about potentially misleading someone. Thankfully someone else corrected me so no damage done, I hope.

    Thread For applications Through SYDNEY (AUSTRALIA) Office

    Hi... What's your timeline again? I know you said you were getting married later this year in another thread. Has the application started once you've set up shop in Calgary? What do you plan to do after you're done in Calgary? a) Return to AU and wait for the process to be completed together...

    Do we need to live in Quebec?

    I'm not too sure how the employment picture really is for unilingual anglophones since my spouse arrived on an "inter-office" work permit and didn't have to look for a job. And depending on his field of study, maybe the lack of French is irrelevant. G'luck...
