Hi Osti,

We are now in Calgary. Came here inquire about job market scenario. I was able to collect some important information, which would help us all. Did you register for immigrant services in Toronto? They provide proper guidance. You can register with Directions for Immigrants website as well. While you are outside Canada, you can do some language courses and improve on inter-personal and soft skills. I will post the exact site to improve all these soon.

What profession are you into?

Dear all
I am an Egyptian pharmacist that's currently residing and working in Bahrain.

My timeline is as follows:
Date on which I received my ITA: 26th of November 2015
Date on which I finalized and uploaded my documents and received my AOR: 9th of January 2016
Date on which I passed my medical tests: 17th of January 2016
Date on which I was asked to sign and upload a "Schedule A Declaration Background" and then I uploaded it on the same day: 18th of January 2016
Date on which the CIC said that they had started on my "Background check: 24th of February 2016.

Just yesterday, I got the following message on my CIC account and it stated the following:
"We are ready to issue your visa. However, your medical validity date expires on December 7th, 2016. If we were to issue a visa now, you would be required to land before December 7th, 2016. Please advise us via MyCIC as to whether or not you can land by the above date. If you are unable to land by that date, you may be required to re-do your medical examination so that your visa validity date can be extended. Please upload your response to your MyCIC account only. Please do not submit physical documents via mail."

The only thing that I found on my CIC account that required my action was to reupload again a scanned copy of my passport with all of its corresponding stamps and visas (which I did). Then what? Should I raise a CSE or is there another method of contacting the CIC? Please advice as I have till the 22nd of October to respond to them. Thank you!

Hi Yous,

yes, send a CSE - you can also send them an email at: abu-dhabi-im-enquiry@international.gc.ca with the same text as the CSE. Mark the subject as URGENT.

Congratulations on your upcoming passport request!

Congratulations, yous1987!

Just create a simple document/letter stating whether or not you are able to land before the mentioned date (Dec. 7th), and upload it to your MyCIC account in the documents upload section.

If you were advised to submit your response via MyCIC, there must be a new document space created for this request along with the submission deadline.

Good luck!

You were supposed to include your response in the form of a letter and upload it with your passport scans (if there is no other slot for this request).

Now, if your visa office is Abu Dhabi, and they mentioned that in the letter, submit your response via CSE (specific to Abu Dhabi visa office), and if you are not sure about your visa office, submit it via IRCC Web form. You can also submit the same information via e-mail, as other members have advised you.

Good luck!

Greetings from Abu Dhabi,

It seems that I just found the right group. I am living in Abu Dhabi, and submitted the EE profile two weeks ago, with a score of 455. Waiting for ITA.

Anyone out there with the similar situation?

Hi,

While waiting for an ITA, keep looking for ways to boost up your score. One good way is PNP. Check this link for further details:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/provincial/apply-who.asp

Good luck!

Hi Que Em,

Thanks for your suggestion and warm heart . I do not think that I am qualified for any of the nomination programs except for Ontario Express Entry: Human Capital Priorities. Both my spouse and I got PhDs from the US, and are working for universities as faculty members. Unfortunately, I do not think Ontario Express Entry: Human Capital Priorities is open right now. Still working for our chance of getting ITA.

 

[Que Em]

Ontario will probably start accepting new applications, soon. I guess they are waiting for their base nomination quota announcement from the IRCC.
Keep checking this link for the updates:
http://www.ontarioimmigration.ca/en/pnp/OI_PNPNEW.html

Also, there are chances for cut-off scores to come down in the near future. However, I have no idea how long it would take to fall down to 455.

I guess, you can still apply for some Atlantic provinces (also, there is a new pilot program coming up with a quota of 2,000).

Good luck!

Hello, Everyone!

If you've submitted an 'online application for permanent residence' through IRCC's Express Entry system and if your application has exceeded 6 months of processing time, please report your forum username, AOR date, and application category here.

Let's see how many of us are still waiting, here, for our files to be processed by the Abu Dhabi visa office.
Thanks!
