Thanks a lot for reply. have ever seen the new policy about that the RA experience will not be accepted again.

It was on this post.

Some of you are talking about CAIPS. What's your experience with it? Is it worthwhile?

It costs just 5 dollars. You might figure out if there has been any activity on your file or not, or how long there has been no action on it!

5 dollars?! The cheapest I found was $60. Could you send me a link to the website by PM if it's not acceptable on this thread and if it's not too much to ask for?

Edit: Found it and it's free since it's under the Privacy act

It is not free. You need to pay 5 dollars. BTW, I do not know how to give PM.

It is if you are in Canada. I just researched it and read a thread about it on this forum.

Hi Tyrusx,

Some questions in terms of how to fill out the form IMM5563E, Section B Information Requested. I assume you've requested the electronic files. Then which option below did you selected?

Status of an application?
Or Immigration file in Canada -> Permanent Residence?

Thanks.

Hi, I think there is a confusion. In 2013 (after new changes are implemented), RA will no more be considered "only for CEC Canadian Experience Class".

If you read the new immigration changes for 2013 carefully (http://gazette.gc.ca/rp-pr/p1/2012/2012-08-18/html/reg2-eng.html), you will see that they mention it cor Canadian Experience Class only.

"(3) Paragraph 87.1(3)(a) of the Regulations is replaced by the following:
(a) any period of employment during which the foreign national was engaged in full-time study shall not be included in calculating a period of work experience;"

Note that this text is referring to rules of Canadian Experience Class only, and not Federal Skilled Worker program.

Hope that helps.

Actually it makes sense that for CEC class, they want work experience to be full time work experience, while applicant is not studying full-time, as this CEC class only looks at education and experience.

Thank you so much for making that clear for us.
