1122 Post Application ON July 2011 Lets Share

[mext60]

I agree... its going to be pretty crazy this time.. I strongly feel CIC should either.. and we have very less chance.. its like a race .. whose courier reaches first!

I strongly feel CIC should radically change its processes to either have -
- Have some lottery system (similar to US for H1) where all applications received say till 31st july will be elegible for the draw or lots. The current rule would lead to long lines in front of CIC office (of people living closer or willing to travel) and those outside
- OR atleast accept first 500 'eligible' applications (and not first 500 applications even if many of them are not eligible late) so that the ineligible applications are not chosen over eligible applications
- OR any other reasonable process which ensures that whose application gets accepted doesnt depend on what courier service we chose or what time and day we finally sent the application.
- AND update the website on time. Last year I (and many others) started the application process much after the cap was actually filled, all because they just were too busy or lazy to update their website. All effort gone waste!!

I also noticed the change in name and exclusion of definitions from 1122. My guess (rather hope) is that they would still include 1122 category as probebly they got a lot of marketing type profiles last time and they were rather looking for operational/strategic consultants!

Lets see what future holds.. hoping for the best and gud luck to all!!

Pretty soon they will be switching to another system which will be similar to new zealand's Expression of Interest based system or Australia's SkillSelect system that is starting from 1st july 2012. In both these systems you cannot apply for immigration directly, you have to register your profile on a website and then if you ever receive invitation from the respective immigration department, only then you would be able to apply. The examples of these two systems and Canada's aspirations to switch to such a system was mentioned by Canada's Immigration Minister in one of his recent address.

For all those applying under 1122

I hope you all know that there have been certain changes in the category 1122 few months ago. I am pasting the relevant links below.

Please see below - the first link contains the notice regarding the change in the name of category 1122. If you see the two links below, the definition of the category and the list of designations has also been changed for 2006 NOC to 2011 NOC . All marketing/ advertising type roles have been excluded and the description changed accordingly. Marketing / Advertising roles have been included in a separate category.

www . cic.gc.ca/english/department/media/notices/notice-changes.asp

www30 . hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC/English/NOC/2006/QuickSearch.aspx?val65=1122

www5 . hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC/English/NOC/2011/QuickSearch.aspx?val65=1122

1122 category only includes roles including analyzing the structure, operations, managerial methods or functions of an organization in order to propose, plan and implement improvements. They are employed by management consulting firms and throughout the public and private sectors or are self-employed

Please make sure you apply in the correct category to avoid any unnecessary rejection

It's a waiting game. No one will be able to confirm whether NOC 1122 will be there or not come 1 July 2012.

NO to both your questions.. however, do remember to mention name of your ex-spouse at all the applicable places.. for eg. application form and family information form... also you would need to attach your marriage and divorce certificates with the package.

Hope this helps

PAUSE on application (except PHD or with job offer) ...

wow, we all know that they are going to change, but never thought that they will hit the pause button ... for those who have prepared their application, you could improve your IELTS etc for Janury 2013.

 

[Kanika78]

wait for 6 more months. Hopefully we will be able to use work experience letters for 2013 application

hi guys am also victim of last year 1122 category,i have planed to send my application on 29 june but latest update says,
As of July 1, 2012, CIC has temporarily stopped accepting applications for the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP). This temporary pause does not apply to those with a qualifying job offer or applying under the PhD stream. We will likely start accepting applications again when the revised FSWP selection criteria take effect. Proposed FSWP changes should come into force in early 2013.

so can any 1 tell that i have 2 wait till january 1 or quota open in this month only plz quote if any have any reliable source!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, if you don't have job offer, you must wait until 1 January with the new rules. If you have job offer, you must send it as soon as you can since it's still open for people with job offer.

Hi everyone,

Almost an year ago, I was notified by CIO on 22-Nov-2011 that my documents has been returned back by regular postal service as the NOC# 1122 that I applied for has reached its limit. I need to know with whom i can check my documents status. I have sent several emails to CIO inquiry office on "CIO-Sydney-Search-Enquiry@cic.gc.ca" to find the exact status of my document. However their response was not satisfactory saying that its the responsibility of postal services to deliver the parcel to the address I provided to them. Now I am quite suspect about them that they might not be sending back the documents to applicant and for sure throwing them in the garbage to save their cost. Based on what I can ask post office to check the status of my letter without having any kind of reference from the sender. I located in Jeddah-Saudi Arabia and applied from here. Is there anyone was facing the same problem and find a way to trace his/her documents.

I really need help to get back my document..

Thanks & Regards

Aayan

Its true that return documents from CIO takes time. Even in Canada the document from Sydney to Toronto takes more than a week.

On the other hand Saudi postal authorities are really the worst in the world. I know that in Jeddah some guys back in 1990s used to throw the cards that are sent by people from abroad..

I know a person in Riyadh he said he got the documents back after about 8 months apparently delayed by his delivery post office

I sent my application on July 1st. Today on 6th July it reached CIO Sydney. Mr DOUG signed delivery paper.
6 days for delivery with DHL. Too long if you ask me. How long would it take with Fedex?

It was strange, because yesterday I saw that application reached Halifax in the morning, so I expected it to be in Sydney on the same day, but instead, it was returned in Halifax today at 07:15 AM, and later today started to move again and reached CIO at 14:41 h.

Mr DOUG signed my application first time when it was returned last year, so I'm a bit scared he he. Just joking.


You Mention that Mr. DOUG signed your deliver paper, did you receive any further notification after? Is Mr. Doug in Halifax of Sydney Immigration Intake Officer or is he a Post receiver at Sydney Office? I'm little upset for my file, After I apply my file, I did not receive any thing from FSW Office since end of the March 2012. I don't understand what to do!! ???
