Ok, I can probably get that sorted no problem. My quandary now comes from the fact that no evidence has been asked for, as far as I am aware.

Hi All, I am applying to London after getting an initial ok from Sydney. Nowhere on form E37023, the London checklist (or anywhere else), does it seem to ask for proof of our relationship. I do not want to delay my application. We do not have a joint bank account, but have been cohabiting since...

Proven my answer elsewhere. Someone was arguing that 14 + degree is 17 years in total etc.

I am having a discussion about this... 11 years schooling and 1 years education for a diploma would get you these points? 12 years at school, then 2 years study for this diploma = ok?

I thought the receipt is for your personal records. It proves you have paid.

I believe you may be ok. Officers are aware that jobs can appear under different categories. I think it revolves around the evidence of your contract and reference from your employer, in different countries jobs have different titles but involve the same duties.

Quite rightly too!

I would look at the list of duties. If that looks like your job, but your title is different, then you will be ok. If this can be confirmed by your employer in writing then you will be ok. Remember, you can say anything in your application, but you need to prove it afterwards.

You suggested as much info as possible, so I added as much info as possible, which included a resume for both of us as we are both management material with 5 or more years experience here in London. Also in there was a print out from a UK government website to corroborate what I was saying about...

With my initial application I wrote a letter, showing how I determined my points with complimentary evidence. It was quite detailed and also contained both mine and my partners resume (CV) - this was suggested by rupeshari previously. The idea that you give as much evidence and information as...

If the duties of his job are a significant match to the description of Financial Manager in the NOC list then I think you should give it a go. Make sure you are able to confirm this with a reference or similar.

Yes this is an interesting one as my forms have gone off and I am in the process of changing jobs. When it comes back will I do all my forms again? Or just send a cover letter?

From my perspective that shows only 6 months work experience in a valid job. Unless your duties can be shown to match the duties in the correct category.... Write down what you did in the other roles and compare to the NOC listed category.

Well, with the delays/backlog that have already occurred at local visa offices, it is easy to see why applications are going to Sydney first. It makes it easier for them to respond to demand and allow a level playing field for all applicants around the world. It will be interesting to see when...

but it is good to know that they sit down and do a rough 'marking' of the application at this stage, even if it has to be substantiated later. My application points are different according to how I might grade my education. I totally accept that my application would have to be substantiated at a...

sorry BCGuy, but it does not state that they do the points check in Sydney, obviously I am no expert, but I am just going on the guide EG7 (quote from page 43 is below) It clearly states for categories 2 and 3 they check (at the local Visa Office): - For Category 1, no mention of a minimum...

Re: Anybody has any questions for Immigration Minister Jason Kenney?Now you can Everything in guide EG7 suggests that the only review done at Sydney is a) completed forms b) payment and c) FSW applicant is on NOC list. The actual application is still made to the local Visa office (London) when...

Where is this information from the London office? On their section http://www.dfait.gc.ca/missions/unitedkingdom-royaumeuni/visas/forms-formulaires-eng.asp#permanent there is no checklist for FSW, so I am taking the standard checklist, which does NOT say notarize photocopies (E37023.pdf)

Re: Anybody has any questions for Immigration Minister Jason Kenney?Now you can Hi, I am confused about this, I am FSW1 (NOC 38 listed) and my application will go to the UK embassy?!?! Nice to hear confirmation that this is a priority, but must be sad news to those already waiting 5 years...

Re: Anybody has any questions for Immigration Minister Jason Kenney?Now you can I will have a think....
