I'm an Irish citizen with an Irish passport, they just looked at the passport and said welcome home. For all they knew I was on holidays.

HI Guys, I got my request for Additional Information today (OINP working Sunday=good sign). Please submit the below information/documents as soon as possible. (1) Personal bank account statements for the past six (6) months. These documents should be original, stamped, dated documents from the...

This change only affects LMIA (negatively) and Canadian study (positively). If you don't have an LMIA or study in Canada it'll have no impact on you.

I understand why applicants with expiring work permits get highest priority, but FSW's shouldn't be put to the bottom of the list. I reluctantly left Canada cos of stress of false PR promises (WP now expired) so I'm FSW outland. I think FSW and CEC (w/valid WPs) should be reviewed in sequence...

Where does it state that Jan has 1800 applicants? Is that true? If that were true would have not have reached their allocation of 5,500 by January? Why wait until May to close the stream?

You're not meant to get Criminal Check for Canada unless requested. They only request this if there is someone with your name who has a criminal record in Canada.

@DaMask, per previous responses OINP will request ECA through WES from you. Although I think the majority of FSW's have already completed this step and therefore will not receive the request now. I'm FSW and already completed this and notified OINP. You're correct it's a personal decision. My...

That's a good sign. Please share your application Date & CEC or FSW?

At least 20 times consistent calling. Took me 26 times to get through.

According to Wes website, they undergo maintenance daily between 3am-5am EST so you can try again in a few hours.

@TicTocCroc 2005??? That's insane. No bank can give statements back that far. It's seems really odd that they'd need that. Was anything missing in your application? Did you send any payslips with application? Is there any possibility it's a typo and should have been back to 2015? Might be...

@g126 Thanks for this overview assessment, very helpful. From your research of the other forums, do you know what the Additional Doc Requests related to?

True they may not reopen, although OINP posted this on their website in May 2016: "Ontario anticipates that it will receive its 2017 nomination allocation from the federal government before the end of November 2016, and the province expects to be in a position to accept applications for some...

Isn't OINP due to reopen to new applications in November 2016? Surely they'll have to have completed those in progress first......

Congrats Sean :)

Me too, I took CELPIP in Canada (got full marks), now going to try IELTS. Have anyone taken both? How do they compare? I need to make sure my points don't go down. Any tips for IELTS or link to practice website? Thanks ;)

Thanks rajkamalmohanram ;)

I've some questions and I'm hoping someone has the information to keep me sane :) Does anyone know if they've stopped issuing Nominations? Are they just issuing Nominations to those with expiring Visa's? Have November/December all received theirs? Has anyone in January group with FSW Outland...

Sean so sorry to hear that. I'm back home, still waiting for OINP. I learned the hard way, not to base my life plans on the Canadian government officials doing their job, Canadian Immigration is just empty promises. Also yes, money making scheme of the highest degree!!! After multiple medicals...

Thanks Ingeb, you mention you're in the 'Final' stage. Can you answer how long it took from AOR to move to Assessment Phase, and from Assessment to Final (Decision) Phase where you are now? I'm hoping to get an idea of what I have waiting ahead as it looks like I'll now need another Language...
