I got 5 adaptability points for previous (2 year) study in Canada according to GCMS notes.
I have recently got medical call.

Note that, I did not claim RA or TA as my primary NOC.
Also they did not grant me any points for a relative in Canada.
Thanks Aalm. It was very useful. Is your GCMS based on the points you got from Sydney or from Ottawa? Because Sydney is awarding these points to all PhD applicants but not sure about Ottawa decision.
And why didn't they give you the points for relative? is there any reason mentioned in GCMS for that?

Can you please clarify this ? What were you claiming and why do you think it wasn't accepted ? Thanks ! :) I am also going to claim some points for an aunt who's a citizen and another who's a PR.

Also for ordering GCMS notes is it better to order electronic file notes or the physical file notes ? I wish to see exactly what were the notes for my last PR application which was rejected. Also, it sucks that I can't pay by CC. Ordering a bank draft itself would cost 7.50 as far as I know but oh well.

Thanks all !

does anyone here who has already landed know if they cancel your valid student visa and take your valid study permit at the border when landing?

1.Automatically cancelled once landed status is granted at the border as you are no longer a temporary resident

2. There is no requirement of surrendering your student or off campus work permits, at-least I did not- the officer gave me an option of holding on to them or the paper shredder taking care of it at the border post

Will they physically cross/cancel it on my passport as well?

I got it last May and my file transferred in December. So don't know who awarded the points.
My points was already 71 without relative so I didn't ask them.
I have ordered me one more GCMS which I will receive July 25.
Remind me then I will let you know if there is any changes in points.

Hello Chakri
do you think they have finished all security and NOC checks before giving medical request?
They are giving med request very fast last couple of weeks.

I am skeptic that the security and criminality for the applications after May 2013 is already done by the time they get medical requests. I think they are sending medicals as soon as the applicants passed eligibility. NOC check is part of eligibility. It might take time after Medicals to issue the visa. But it was not like that for applicants before May 2013. If you see the tracker they got passport requests as soon as they sent medicals. Let's see.

You are probably right. I think they may take time to send passport request.
Lets hope not. Finger crossed!
