Dear cs5, welcome aboard the thread and good to hear from you, we needed such news.

May I ask from which country you are, and do you have any expectations about the medicals?

Thanks buddy. I did it through caips.ca the basic service costs 40 Canadian dollars, however you can request this report through any Canadian resident (relatives, friends, anyone living there) for only 5 Canadian dollars. This link immipedia.ca/Ordering_FOSS_and_CAIPS_notes covers the steps.
Thanks a lot for your prompt reply and wish that they will send you the medical request very soon.

Salam Armintaba

I got 21 points for employment history and 16 for my IELTS score (Listening 9.0, Reading 8.5, Writing 7.0, Speaking 9.0, total band score 8.5). I was a bit worried about the work experience point as my university major is in engineering but my last job description (last couple of years, after my initial application in 2006) didn't relate to engineering while I did specifically asked them to evaluate my latest NOC code in the updated forms. All went well. My other points were 10 for age, 20 for educational qualification (bachelors degree in engineering) and 4 for my wife's bachelors degree.
Thanks buddy, I dont wanna be nosy, but can you do me a favour nd tell me how many years job experience you had when you first applied in 2006 and if the rest was counted after that?

Thanks Youskal. I'm Iranian, absolutely no idea about the medicals just that based on the routine of previous years - if at all applies to us - they should start sending out medicals during Q3

well I did have over 10 years work experience when I filed in 2006 so that alone would have covered the requirement, but I changed my career path a few years ago after applying for SW class and sent them the letters and certificates during the update stage. They've indeed taken this matter into consideration because the caips report has listed my latest NOC code and job title in the "points awarded" section

Congrat CS5.

Can we conclude that if it takes roughly a month to grade the application, and if someone -God prohibits- did not get the minimum points then his/her application most probably will get a rejection by the time they finish the grading, and those who did not yet hear anything might have passed and are just waiting for the MEDs?

No we can't, because I got my CAIPS too and after more than 3 months of submiting my updates, they hadn't evaluated my scores...

Dear sep2006, once you have sent your updated documents from December 2010 forth your douments have not been evaluated yet, apparently they have dealt with the documents received by the end of November

@ cs5

Hi there,

I am seriously planning to request for a caips through the way you did, caips.ca, but I have no credit cards to pay the fee by. Can you tell me how to pay please. Regarding the reliability of the org. in charge you re sure right? I mean we are supposed to add the file number or something in the application, so the safety is ok?

Hi Armintaba

I don't have a credit card either, I just asked a friend abroad to pay the fee for me through Paypal. There are dozens of local providers out there that will pay for you with their Paypal account, try googling them. Since you are not paying yourself, ask caips.ca for an invoice with their paypal account details and then have these providers pay for you to that account.

About caips.ca, I've ordered caips twice and they delivered with no problems and yes you need to include your file number. See the "application kit" (PDF file) in their "Apply" page. You are supposed to fill out the last two pages and sign.

Thanks a lot, mind if I ask you one more question, do we have to send the forms via mailing or we can email them the scanned signed forms. by the way I live abroad and have access to the paypall, just dont know if I should have the paypal account or just go to them and ask them to deposit some money on some account number?
