Thanks. This is what I chose as well. My confusion comes from that "work" can also mean work permit which belongs to TRV. Especially study/visit/work happen to be the three major categories of TRV.

I am doing my upfront medical for express entry after ITA. At the clinic, the nurse asked me to choose which category am I applying at -- family, study, visit or work. I am totally confused: clearly I am not in "family" category as I am applying under FSW and no family sponsorship, but the other...

It takes time. The system is slow. You will receive it.

Got ITA. Hooray!

same boat. guess it takes a while? the system is too buggy to be trusted.

same here. i am above 482 but received nothing. does it take a while to update or what?

Re: 10 th draw No Hopes Group That is not what I was trying to say. I actually agree with you that someone who has committed several years of his/her life to the Canadian economy, whether a cook or a postdoc, should have priority over applicants living outside.

Re: 10 th draw No Hopes Group I am not a postdoc, but I do believe postdocs are more qualified individuals than many people getting the extra 600 points. If you still cannot see it, Barack Obama only gets his job for two 4-year terms, does it make him a less qualified person than a truck...

Re: 10 th draw No Hopes Group You clearly have no idea about advanced levels of education. A position filled by one PhD does not mean it can be filled by any other PhD. PhD-level positions are normally niche positions.

Re: 10 th draw No Hopes Group Do not be so arrogant. I am one of the 450-600's. I have a PhD from United States, clearly not a third world country and clearly no problem in assimilation. I came to Canada for a great job opportunity. My job has a positive LMO (the predecessor of LMIA) thus...

I am in the same boat. I initially received an ITA and then an email from CIC saying that they are taking away the 600 points and my ITA because my offer is not permanent. I was totally shocked by this since everything written on the website says that the offer only has to be valid for at least...

On-line and paper applications are in different queues, and only some occupations require medicals.

Thanks. Even if I receive the authorization letter now, I still need time to pack things up and move.

Hi, what is the start date on your offer letter? My appointment is supposed to start Sept. 1st, but per the current timeline I may end up entering Canada after that. Since I will need to show the offer letter at the border to get the actual work permit, I wonder if missing the start date would...

No, we have done nothing in particular, but I hold a valid multiple-entry TRV already. That might be the reason why the processing of my application is shorter I guess.

For online applications, we do not submit passport at the beginning but wait for the request.

Original passport request received just a few minutes ago! Application was submitted online May 24th.

This is what I received today: ===== ===== Dear Sir/Madame, This is in response to your email below. All applications are reviewed in the order in which they are received. An exact schedule of completion is not available at this time as our processing time is a minimum of (30) thirty days...

Hi, which address did you send you email to? They are not replying my email now.

Looks like they are still dealing with the early Apr application. BTW, do you need to get an updated offer letter? My appointment is supposed to start September 1, but there does not seem to be any chance of hearing from the consulate by the end of the month. I am wondering if I receive the...
