    Received an update, but it's not showing.

    Yeah, I got a couple of emails before that did not translate to actual updates in the system. But this one is different, because it displayed that empty table, or maybe it was there all along. I dont know, im really confused here.

    I submitted my application 8 months ago, on the 6th of March, 2016. How about you?

    Received an update, but it's not showing.

    Hi everyone, I had an interesting problem last night. And I was wondering if anyone had this before, or if you have any theories on why it happened. During the months since I applied to EE, I received many emails from CIC. 2 of those emails said that my application was "Updated", but when I...

    Complications with Expiring Passport, help!

    Yeah I know, normally it takes a week to 10 days to renew the passport. But my home country (Lebanon) decided to start issuing a new set of passports, one that includes biometric chip inside them. Thats why this is not purely a passport renewal, as much as it is a brand new passport.

    Complications with Expiring Passport, help!

    I hope your problem gets solved fast. We are in the same boat here. I wonder if there is any way we can inform CIC that our passports are "on the way". Maybe if we can get a paper from the embassy saying that they have the passport, maybe that will give us an extension. I dont know, I am...

    Complications with Expiring Passport, help!

    You're talking about this form, right? https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/canada-case-cas-eng.aspx Well I did fill it up, and I explained my situation very clearly. 2 days later I got a response from CIC saying (My application is "in progress"). I doubt a human being even read my...

    Complications with Expiring Passport, help!

    Thank you for your reply. I will be contacting my embassy in a couple of minutes to see if I can request urgent processing again, though I doubt it.

    Complications with Expiring Passport, help!

    Hi everyone, I am in Canada, and after I got my ITA I submitted my Express Entry profile on the 6th of March 2016. It has been more than 6 months since I applied, and the wait has been frustrating, but that's not the reason I am making this post. My passport will expire at the end of...

    Police clearance Qatar - after submission at consulate

    I cannot edit my previous comment, so I hope people can read my reply here. The method that I mentioned above did not work. I did mail the package to Qatar, but it was returned weeks later. They did not process it, and of course no explanation was provided. I urge everyone to go through the...

    Please help..How to get qatar police clearance (in fastest way)

    When was the last time you used this "firm"? I learned that the rules in Qatar have changed in the last years, and that nobody can do that for you anymore. You have to have a relative there to do it for you, or apply to an embassy.

    UCI Number - Asivad???

    The sticker that was put on my passport did not have any UCI either. It only had a Document number, and that started with EXXXXXXXXX. But when I got into Canada, the officers in the airport printed out a piece of paper with all my info on it, and they stapled it to the passport. It had my UCI...

    All who got ITA - PLEASE READ!!!

    Nope I drop to 450. It's all because this tool considers that my wife's 1 year of experience is not valid, because she worked in 2 occupations. It doesnt make sense. The Express Entry system gave us 5 points for it.

    All who got ITA - PLEASE READ!!!

    Yeah I understand that it is for guidance, but the disclaimer says that the results provided by the system shall govern. And in my case I do actually lose points when I use this tool, and now I am worried.

    All who got ITA - PLEASE READ!!!

    This is the first time I see this tool, thanks for sharing. According to this I do not qualify for ITA anymore, because my wife will loose her Canadian Work Experience. According to my EE profile, I am getting 5 points because my wife has 1 year of experience. But in this tool, my wife gets...

    CEC 1560 hours expereince

    Yeah, I thought it only happened to me. I didnt misrepresent myself in any way. But 15 days ago, the system suddenly increased my points, and I later received an ITA. I didnt change anything in my profile, they just recalculated my points. I suspected that it had something to do because of the...

    Police clearance Qatar - after submission at consulate

    I went there myself, because I live in Ottawa. I think that you will have to send them by mail.

    Police clearance Qatar - after submission at consulate

    This is exactly what I did. I went to the police to get the fingerprints, but they said that they dont do those things, they referred me to www.commissionaires.ca I found one of their offices here in Ottawa, and they did the fingerprints, $55 if I recall. Then you have to notarize them, and...

    Police clearance Qatar - after submission at consulate

    Well if you're waiting 6 months anyway, why not go through the embassy? Are you in Ottawa? I have submitted to the embassy, but it never hurts to try to send the courier if it is only 20 days. The worst case is that I will get 2 PCC.
