Do you think they may delay us if we email them? I am scared so after my PCC issues I have decided not to email them again :(

You are very lucky in getting responses fast. They always reply my e-mails after 9 or 11 days :(

I dont think it slows down the process. They won't do that, furthermore they dont have that much time (i guess) to check if we contacted them or not.
Hopefully, this aspect does not fall under screening criteria.

Should we also ask for physical file in GCMS?
does it have any extra info or same as electronic?

For spouse GCMS, do we need to do anything else other than attaching the consent form?


Thanks guys.

The electronic file will have the same thing. Don't bother ordering the CD that will most likely come by regular mail!

To be honest, I do not know if work during full time study will still be considered as a full time job or not. Thats why I am saying nobody can judge about the new system until it comes.
Yup, your words are just what Im afraid of.

Hi All,

Can somebody please help me. I am so stressed,

I am single and I am filling the form Schedule 3 (economic classes FSW, IMM 0008).

It keeps asking question about spouse

For example:
is your accompanying spouse or common-law partner proficient in English or French?


what should I answer? No? or just leave it?

other questions ask "if applicable" when it is about spouse. should I leave them blank or should I answer no?

Best

Thank you, but there is not such an option in the form. I am afraid if I leave it blank my form would be incomplete.

BTW: I am using my TA/RA hours in Canada as my work experience, should I select that I have work experience in Canada?

1. Leave them blank. You'll be fine.
(If you're still concerned, first get married, then fill out the forms. Problem solved!)

2. It says "full-time"; so, technically, your answer should be NO. You can write a note beside it (in ink) like "I have equivalent part-time work experience in Canada". If you choose YES, they'll understand what you mean after looking at your documents. So either way is okay.
