nina24 - did your status in Canada expire or something? If it did, fyi you have 90 days after the expiry to apply to reinstate your status.....for e.g you can change to a work permit or student permit. There are currently not many examples of CEC cases being dealt at offices other than Buffalo...

nina24 - I had a similar situation - initially applied for a work permit for a certain job...but by the time it was issued, the job was gone. As I had the legal status to work, I just found another position at another company without reapplying to change my work permit. To tell you the truth I...

It's much more simple than that. Once you have reached IA - it means they already evaluated your file and as a result accepted you pending the next steps - that means they already went through your work experience.......checked with your employer (which in most cases they do not have the time...

Ok you are now going to a different context altogether with the possibility of a lay off. No one is ever 100% guaranteed to keep his job when he walks in the next day (economic crisis or no economic crisis - does not make a difference). Being positive in life and at work is the best thing you...

You answered your question yourself - neither a T4 nor tax receipt lists your vacation hours or your work hours for that matter. You are worrying too much over small details. The Immigration officer has no time to go find out when you took your vacation and for how long. All they are looking...

If you have applied for CEC or will do so in the near future the website below will give you an idea of processing times.....Add your own information to the CEC tracker below. http://www.trackitt.com/canada-immigration-trackers/canadian-experience-class/

I know this too PMM. I got this info with my application package but I am assuming they have not gone through my background check yet. I just got request for medicals. Since I studies and worked in Canada and therefore been here for a while, they will most likely eventually ask me to get it...

Thanks BCguy. Just received IA and I just did my medicals.Buffalo did not send me the fingerprint request though. From what I see Ottawa is taking 3 months to process medicals. Fingerprints are sent to Ottawa too from what I read...so I am wondering if it's possible for me to get them taken...

Does anyone know if everyone has to submit a RCMP fingerprint request or it's only in cases where you have a very common name (e.g John Chan) or if they find someone with the same name as you with a criminal record that you are asked to do one?

DUH! Don, I think if you call Sharukh Khan up he may be able to track it for your friend.

The office will ask for your passport and they will return it to you with your pr visa. Also GOOGLE is your best friend.

Good point Leon! According to logic, since I have paid fees for both applications, unless I withdraw one of my applications, they should be processing both of them. As a matter of fact, I have 2 different file numbers for the 2 applications, meaning it's okay to have 2 applications and that...

Seems to be very quick Simon. You can follow up on CEC application times on the website below: http://www.trackitt.com/canada-immigration-trackers/canadian-experience-class/ Good luck.

Thanks for the link to the trackitt website EasyRider - it's pretty useful. Did you apply for the CEC as well?

Sorry to correct you Leon, but I think you are wrong. You cannot apply for 2 different classes on the same application. But you can certainly have 2 concurrent applications at the same time. Refer to the link below for more information, Dave...

Hey easyrider. Thanks a lot for pointing me to that trackitt.com website regarding processing times for my CEC application. Here's what I think of the move to Quebec: A PR has no restrictions. Its' valid throughout Canada and you can therefore live anywhere in Canada. As long as you receive...

Hi Rahim - I just received the generic letter with my file number saying it has been placed in a queue waiting assessment (dated October 20 2008). The payment receipt is dated October 14th. So that means they are processing the CEC applications quite fast. Hopefully they will ask us to do...

Hi I applied for the Canada Experience Class (Buffalo received my application on October 9, 2008 according to the Purolator tracking number). I have not heard anything from Buffalo yet. Just wondering if anyone else has sent in an application. If so, did you get any updates from them? I hear...
