I don't understand, what does it mean when the CHC says "application is in process"?? Can't they be specific in telling us exactly what stage of the process it's in??

You are welcome! Yeah do that and make sure you do it ahead of time, because they take alot of time as I have heard. Moreover you need to have your IELTS valid until you finally get your license and you know IELTS expires in 2 years, so if you don't get the license within that time you will have...

Sorry for the late response. I was away. No you will have to do IELTS Academic test, they won't accept the IELTS General test because the english fluency requirement is actually from Ontario College of Pharmacists (OCP) : http://www.ocpinfo.com/client/ocp/OCPHome.nsf/web/Language+Proficiency...

And yes you don't need license to work as a pharmacy assistant, it's just hard to get into the system initially.

Hi, It's very hard to get into it. And now they are upgrading the role of pharmacy assistants to pharmacy technicians which means even the assistants have to go through PEBC exams to be certified. They just started this last year. So employers now prefer to have certified technicians, unless you...

Don't study when you are not in the mood, because then you won't get anything. Try to get in the mood by thinking about your future, because if you don't study, all the previous hard work will go to waste but if you do, you will have a bright future. That's how you motivate yourself, have a...

Hi bitoyzz, Yup I passed my Evaluating on my first attempt, now struggling to do my Qualifying, but I am also working in Shoppers as a pharmacy assistant. This whole process isn't that easy and can be very frustrating. You are right we should take it one step at a time. Comprehensive Pharmacy...

Thanks! Oh yes I actually joined this forum in order to get information regarding his immigration process. We are still waiting on it..so I just came across this thread by chance and thought of giving my input! I am not sure about other provinces but I do know that Ontario has the longest...

Hello folks! I would like to share some information that may be of some help to all the pharmacists hoping to get licensed in Canada. I guess by now everyone knows about PEBC exams. So I won't talk about that. Rules and regulations vary with each province as each province has its own regulatory...

Thanks for your help. I was just in doubt and you are right, medical is more important. The visa office hardly gives any replies. This forum is indeed very helpful.

Thank you so much! You have been a great help! I am now kinda relieved! We have already submitted it twice in the process and now it's just a matter of a few days.

But still it delays the whole process....it still takes some time for us to make it, send it and for them to process it...

InshAllah. May Allah s.w.t. make this difficult time easy for all of us here ameen

Yeah that's my greatest fear right now, this only means longer waiting time :(

what's your timeline?

It was valid for 6 months too. The 2nd one was done around July 15, 2011.

Applied in April 2010 Received in Islamabad Visa Office June 2010 Re-medical done in July 2011 Passport requested and sent to Islamabad Visa Office in October 2011 They asked for further medical tests again in November 2011 All test reports submitted to them again in December 2011 Now waiting...

Yeah that's what I was thinking too. They have the passport but haven't issued visa yet.

Thank you bro for your response. I know that it's valid for 6 months. But it has already been 6 months since the 2nd police clearance certificate was issued. I just wanted to be sure whether it's a requirement (as important as the validity of medical and passport) for the issuance of visa. But...

Does anyone know whether the police clearance report has to be valid when the visa is being issued? When the Visa office asked for my husband's passport his police clearance report was valid but it has been about 3 months since and his police clearance report is about to be expired now. Should...
