Kingkong1, Really? Those are your questions? You did not answer mine: who are you, so I can take you seriously?

Kingkong1, I have obtained my PEng from one province already, and going through the process of applying in another province. Currently working for a company earning 6 figures. A MSc and a PhD from the U.S. However, the start was not easy, and I don't blame the system. Accreditation requires...

I am a foreign-trained engineer, currently obtaining Canadian accreditation. I have not found any of the "infamous" barriers or hurdles mentioned by the above poster. Only the normal examinations required to satisfy the regulatory body that I have in fact the training and experience I am...

If you were not charged, how does the situation is listed in your police certificate? Is it a charge, arrest, conviction? Anyway, you should contact the PGJ in the state where the incident occurred and ask them about your situation. If it shows in both the federal and state certificates, you...

Depending on the state where the charge/conviction occurred, you may be able to obtain it electronically or you may have to apply in person. Have you checked the website of the PGJ in the state where the infraction occurred? I think it may be possible that one of your relatives, with a "carta...

It is always very instructive to read the account of a failed cultural integration. Immigration is not for everybody; please don't make the mistake of thinking that it's Canada's fault that newly arrived people cannot find a job or adapt to the life here. The burden of adaptation is on the...

P.Eng. licensure is not easy. However, the process is straightforward enough and if you have had sufficient exposure to your area of expertise then it should not take long. In the meanwhile nothing prevents you to work as an engineering intern since day 1 provided a licensed engineer...

Perhaps I am not going to be of much use, but I held a postdoctoral fellowship in a university in Ontario on a work permit. I have never been to Halifax. Possibility of obtaining a faculty position elsewhere in Canada: depends on the area your husband is working. Is the university at Halifax a...

Hi Armando, you have asked this same question many times. CIC will let you know if the state certificates are needed.

Validating your documents will create a bar code that allows immigration officers to process your documents quicker. It is highly recommended (if not mandatory) that you validate them.

Glad to be of help. Congratulations for your wife's PR.

My very personal opinion is that you won't have any problem since you were already a PR when your now wife submitted her application. There would be a problem if you did not have the PR at the time, because that would mean that CIC has to evaluate your admissibility, education, background, etc...

Hi Armando7, Do you have a letter or a receipt from the police authorities that clearly states the date where the documents were received by them, and that they will submit the documents directly to CIC? You can scan that letter and attach it to your email response to CIC, advising them that...

Hi gimy, My wife was already a PR when I applied. We were married in 2010, and this was stated on my 2011 application. When I received my COPR, the status listed was "single" instead of "married". I suppose the question is, when you applied, how did you indicate your relationship with...

Hi, Just to hopefully provide information on my timeline for those who might be on the same boat. In Canada since December 2010 with a work permit, obtained Quebec's Certificate of Selection on April 2011. Applied for federal skilled worker program in July 2011. Medical exams and AOR in...

I have been in implied status several times. My work permit expires before the decision on the new one is made. The HR department in the company I work for usually contacts me saying something like: "have you renewed your work permit? If you have, please send us proof of your application. It...

Hi montrealjuly2011, I was thinking the same thing -- February seems much more likely now, with the holidays almost upon us. I'll definitely let you know if there is something interesting on the gcms notes. Cheers

Congratulations to the people who got their PR!

Hi Marmar1984, I just read your post and hopefully this is useful for you. 1. You applied for GCMS notes in October 12, 2012... I think you will receive them by the end of this month at the latest. Last time, they sent me my notes after 40 calendar days. This time, I applied for them on Nov...
