Rakib.

Thank god I could submit my passports last sunday, 29th of April and the commission accepted them. They said they would contact me within 8 weeks after the immigration visa is placed and sent back from singapore. I got really lucky there and I even didnt realize that there was such an announcement!

Best of luck everyone.

Dear jnathan, Is it not a normal things? In RPRF form they said we will send u a receipt when we finalize ur application. & today I received it but don't know whether they send my passport in Dhaka CHC or not. because CHC Dhaka will send me a registered mail when passport is ready for collection and there is a continuous Hartal from next sunday. postal service does not work in that situation. Is it be a wise decision to contact with Dhaka CHC regarding my passport?

Wish to get good reply from any senior members.

Hi joyeta,

I had sent my passports in on Sunday 29th, why did it take so long for you to receive your passports from CHC dhaka? After you did not get a mail from them in a long while did you call them and check if the passports were back? They said it would take 8 weeks and I would be really worried if it takes them any longer! Most likely I met you at the CHC if you were picking up your passports on the 29th :) Congrats

Regards
Munakib

GOOD NEWS for pre- Feb 27, 2008 applicants. Application processing has resumed.

CIC has resumed processing applications from the pre-Feb 27, 2008 backlog until the introduced bill passes in the parliament. And it's not known when it will pass, so until then your applications will continue to be processed.

Operational Bulletin 413 - April 27, 2012
Processing for Certain Federal Skilled Worker Backlog Applications: Budget 2012 – amended version
Issue
A number of immigration-related announcements were made in the 2012 budget on March 29, 2012. This Operational Bulletin (OB) replaces OB 400 and OB 404, and serves to clarify further the immediate implications for processing of Federal Skilled Worker applications received prior to February 27, 2008.

Background
Budget 2012 (Economic Action Plan 2012) proposes to eliminate the backlog in the Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) Program by terminating certain applications made prior to February 27, 2008. Applicants whose application would be terminated as a result will have the fees paid to CIC returned to them. The FSW proposal to terminate certain FSW applications announced as part of the March 2012 Budget may be enacted by amendments to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) through the Budget Implementation Act (BIA) bill. The FSW proposal will be of no legal effect until the BIA bill is enacted and comes into force. The BIA has now been introduced. However, the coming into force date, if the bill becomes law, is not yet known.

Instructions
Until the FSW proposal is enacted and comes into force, local managers are to continue with the processing of FSW applications, including FSW applications made prior to February 27, 2008, whether a selection decision has been rendered or not prior to March 29, 2012. This means that processing of all cohorts of FSW cases should continue. Established priorities for MI cases remain in effect.

Local communications and website changes that may have resulted from OB 400 and OB 404 should be discontinued.

Further messaging on next steps with respect to FSW backlog cases affected by the Budget announcement will be published as soon as they become available, including the process for how the return of fees will be implemented.
