I got the following in an email from CIC, can anyone give an idea of how long this part of the process may take? ""When the above documents are received, the file will be assessed and sent to the officer for review.""

I read the notice below on CIC's website and was wondering how this change works... i.e. even if I meet the conditions within the first or second year I will still have to wait for three years to pass and then apply for citizenship at which point they may then request proof of meeting the...

Very helpful advise.. I too believe that they are not interpreting the rule clearly as I have had a similar problem with them last year where they quoted ministerial instructions that were not relevant to my case. I will see what records I can get my hands on but at the same time I am thinking...

Thanks computer geek... the thing is that in my country we are only required by law to maintain company records for a period of 6 years so I am not sure if my accountants have the documents that they are requesting, and because of how I interpreted the information on CIC's website I did not...

Just got a reply from the high commission. My application was originally sent Sept 2007 and they are saying that my business documents must be for the preiod 2002 - 2006. I submitted 2006 - 2010 which they say they cannot use. However the CIC website clearly states the following: Business...

My AOR letter also stated that processing would have began 36 - 48 months after. On the 3rd day of the 49th month, I went in to our consulate to enquire about my application and they told me I had to send in a request by email. I did that and they replied saying that they were prioritizing...

Hi, I applied under federal entrepreneur in Sept 2007 from Port of Spain Trinidad. AOR was received in Oct 2007, Docs requested Dec 2011 and submitted March 2012. Have not heard anything since. The problem though is that the federal entrepreneur class has been suspended until further notice...

I just submitted a stack of documents requested by CIC in support of my application under the federal entrepreneur class and was wondering how long I should wait before applying for a fresh set of caips notes which will show data regarding these documents.

Great help as always PMM.

Thanks PMM Not long after I received the CAIPS, I got a request from CIC to submit additional documentation which they have requested I submit before March 12th.... Does that mean that they would not look at these documents until October 2012 or would they bring forward that date when they...

I just came back from our embassy here in Trinidad querying the status of my application under the federal entrepreneur program, as the original timeline for processing the application as stated in my confirmation of receipt letter has now passed and I have not received any further contact from...

You mentioned that he filed papers to remove his condition since 2006, but you did not confirm if his business met the definitions outlined by CIC to have his condition removed i.e. annual turnover, creating at least one full time incrimental job etc. It could be that he has not met the...

My ackowledgment letter from CIC stated that they would begin processing my application in 36 - 48 months. It will be 48 months in September and I was wondering if anyone had their stated time pass and what actions should I take if this was to happen?

No I have not. Will this also work if I have only submitted the simplified application form so far? Also I though that I read somewhere that requesting caip notes can delay your processing time. Is there any truth to that?

I used the simplified application process to apply under Federal Entreprenuer in 2007. The acknowledgment letter said that they would begin to process my application in 36 - 48 months. At that stage they will request all relevant documents including police clearance etc. It has now been 44...

Is there any other way to check applications status other than ECAS? I know the American system for example would say that they are currently processing applications from a particular month & year etc. My initial acknowledgement letter said 36 - 48 months before they begin working on my...
