    CEC eligibility

    The officers can be extremely picky when it comes to the amount of hours and weeks towards the 12 months experience. As it is calculated on 37.5 hours a week so to be on the safe side I would make it like 1.1 - 1.5 years experience so your covered.

    Unfortunately every case is different and it can sometimes come down to the VO that you get. I have heard of a number of people that have received their MR and then onto get their PR and their employer was never contacted at all.

    Thanks Infoseeker :) I think you are right about applying now rather then later, especially with the uncertainty of this strike. I believe my application should go through to a MR as I was just thinking of the "worst case scenario" though. I hope this strike is sorted out on Tuesday. I will...

    No consistency and clarification of what formula or system they are working with. It certainly doesn't help install any confidence I have with the CIC.
