Application are still being accepted. There is a cap of 20,000 applications per year, but no info on current numbers. I wouldn't worry about this limit, though. French test is not mandatory. If you have enough points without French – no problem. Processing time – sorry, don't know. It's very...

Guys, check this document out http://www2.publicationsduquebec.gouv.qc.ca/dynamicSearch/telecharge.php?type=7&gpiType=N&file=NPI2013-016.pdf&eoq=36870

Your B1 will get you 0 points. Try B2 for sure, in that case you'll have a chance of interview waiver. With no french you almost certainly will go to an interview.

3-6 months.

New rules for sure. Old rules apply only for those who received invitation to the interview or "pending decision" letter BEFORE August 1. Letters like these come several months after AOR in a good case.

I don't have anything about priority on my AOR neither, but my application is definitely priority (Quebec diploma, 12 points), and it was confirmed when I called MICC.

TEFAQ will be modified this winter and will include written part.

Why are you only talking about Asian applicants being "fooled" by this new language requirement? All other applicants are affected as well. I guess, not francophone countries really, but a lot of others!

Oh, I see, HK = Hong Kong, VA = Vienna, right?

First letters can be different as well, my file number is VA00005xxxx (you're talking about dossier number, right?). So the difference can be even larger.

The numbers are a bit different, but all the info can be found here – http://www.micc.gouv.qc.ca/publications/fr/planification/Plan-immigration-2013.pdf

sorry for being down and pessimistic, I'm happy for you, truly, but it's easier for you to be calm when you already have a CSQ :)

That's just for intake.

I get only 48 points if they cancel my A2 French, but I sent an update of work experience (they received it but haven't updated the file yet), this will add 2 points and I end up with 50 points. How about you? What's your story with these new rules?

That's the thing – AOR doesn't help, according to that FAQ my file is going to be treated under new rules, your as well (if your profile info is relevant) – you got your AOR Nov 26th 2012, and if you haven't received anything else you'll be treated under new rules as well.

Guys, this is so sad... I don't know what to think, I feel fooled...

I called MICC and they said part 3 is only about general immigration, not Skilled Worker category. Part 1 is about Skilled Worker.

Thanks, kuro_shio! This is very good! http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/fr/informations/faq.html#1aout But I'm still confused, my French is not good enough, I don't understand how chapter 1 and chapter 3 work together. It seems like they contradict each other. For example, as of August...

Congrats! Mine took ~ 2 months and 1 week, so I guess it's not too bad.

Well, then, that's awesome! :) Hope you're right!
