A genius tool that on the 2nd page has a drop down listing the in-demand occupations from which you can choose, or select "None of the above".

The problem is that it only lists 24 occupations and 5 are missing, including Pharmacists!

Can't CIC do anything right?

;D I'm glad they didn't put this 'useful' tool up last year. I'd have been horribly disappointed and probably wouldn't have applied!!
All new comers, please note that the tool has a few occupations missing. Make sure to check the current 29 NOCs.

@crunchytomato, sure I'll let you know as soon as I get my PPRs.

@ Ramgupta, it took almost 2 months for the ecase status to be updated for me. I'm going to receive the PPR any day now.

Thanks for all the well wishes.

We finally landed in Toronto Pearson Airport on Friday, 5 Aug 11 at 4:30 pm (local time). It was a long flight. About 7 hours from Singapore to Dubai, 5 hours transit in Dubai, & 14 hours from Dubai to Toronto. Fortunately the leg room in both the Emirates planes were adequate for a 6 footer.

As was mentioned by others earlier, we were provided the Custom's Declaration Card on board the plane. Had a closer look at it, even though I have used it before, to note the question posed with regards to funds brought in. It's mentioned all fund you are bring – money and other instruments - totalling $10,000. So it's likely to be a “yes” for most of us not landing alone. Also note that the date format required is “YYMMDD”.

The first stop upon arrival is Immigration. After posing a few questions (e.g. amount brought, etc), and stamping our Passports, the officer cleared us with a smile and a “Welcome to Canada”. Next we were shown to a section for new Immigrants. Here you would be required to present your COPR, and again after filling it and returning a copy to you, you receive another smile and a “Welcome to Canada”. Next to 2 consecutive counters where you will be provided with several booklets, and forms, and another smile and “Welcome to Canada”. Finally after collecting our baggage, it was to Customs, where you have to present your “Goods Accompanying” and Goods to Follow” forms. I only had the former; as we opted to pay for excess baggage charges to bring everything in one go. The officer merely had a look at it and after stamping the form and returning one set to us, another smile and “Welcome to Canada”! After that we exited, and proceed to Ground Level (i.e. one level below Arrival) where we had already pre-booked a private van with a Red Car Service, to Guelph where our cousins resides.

We should be in Guelph for a couple of weeks till we find ourselves a suitable accommodation, most likely in Mississauga. Service Canada is closed today (Saturday), and so our plans is just to get our insurance, bank, and mobile line issues resolved over the weekend. In all it has been one great experience and everyone has been so welcoming - from the officials in the airport to the gentleman who drove the private van.

Cheers.

thanks for.. sharing

Ladies & Gentlemen,

It gives me great pleasure to announce that finally my ecas status has moved from Received by Visa Office to In Process as of 3-Aug-2011.
It took London visa office 6 month ONLY to start processing the application. At this rate, I hope to be in Canada in next 2-3 years.

Congratulations to everyone who has received a good news.

Take Care,

M000dy

Congratulations M000dy

I wouldn't trust this Come to Canada tool, I'm afraid, Mayank.
I just tested it out using our information and it told me we were not eligible! We certainly are eligible for Category 2 FSW! It also doesn't help you to know about the PNP options - it is just for FSW by the looks of it, so its usefulness in helping someone who is in the early stages of deciding whether they qualify to immigrate to Canada is extremely limited.
Thanks for suggesting it, though.

Our address is still missing after several days, so maybe this really is a good sign! We went on ECAS IN PROCESS on 2nd August, but they started processing on 26th July.
London seems to be having a bit of a push on FSW Cat 2s at the moment; I have heard of developments in several cases. They also seem to be cracking on with Cat 1 as well, although most of those are much later applicants than the Cat 2s.
Hopefully we will all get positive news very soon, if smiler's experience is anything to go by. ;D
