@Mitali

Thanks for your comments. I sent my post before read threads. I just realized that it is too early as you said.

Thanks again.

Hi Chander,

You have touched upon a bleeding vein. And it hurts.. but at the sametime think it from the Canadian Govt's perspective. Firstly, they have not invited us to IMMIGRATE ..it is our own desicion and we have to go by their rules. I am sure even Indian Govt would have taken strategies to protect her own country people first.

As you rightly pointed out ppl with simplified applications are still waiting but nothing can be done except wait.

But don't worry.....it is indeed a time consuming and painful process but you will find a way to your dreamland. Have faith and send out "GOOD' vibes to the Canadian Immigration Visa officers, so that they may expedite everyone's application smoothly.

Hi Mitali,

Just wondering, do you think the strictness might apply to all VO or just the ones for India. I havent really heard much rejection from the Manila VO lately. What do you think?

Thanks. ;D

Hi Smile,

Let's believe that it applies to all VO. How about that? Dont relax because you have not heard for your visa office. Dont let down your guard yet. Once you have safely landed in Canada..then its fine.

Dear All..

specially saki/mitali.....

I have finished my Masters (MCS) in feb 2010 but as i didnt got the Degree by now, as it will take one or two more months ... and i have applied to CIO on the basis of Graduation BSc (Hons) ... got my 1st AOR... now attempted IELTS and hoping for good results...

the question is, i m planning to include my Masters degree in my case, i have not disclosed it before, as i was not sure that i m gonna get it or not becuz i m a full time employee, running a small business too and married also, so kind of v. bzz life i have.... thats why i was not sure... but now results are known that i have cleared all the subjects.. so what should i do..? including my MCS degree will be beneficial or it will lead to an objection...???

by including this degree my IELTS points requirement will be decreased for sure... thats why i decided to wait for my MCS degree and also include it with an explanatory letter that why i did not mentioned it in earlier application to CIO...

your opinions plzzzzz....

Sameer....

Hi Sameer,

Hats off to you... juggling so many things together is a feat by itself.

1. Yes, you can acquire new degree/diploma while your application is at initial stage (or even when it has been sent to CHC, provided they have not started working on your file).
2. When you send full docs to VO, mention in your cover letter that now you have acquired your MCS degree.
3. Do you have the degree in hand? If not then you have provide docs to prove that you have successfully completed the course.
4. Including your M.Sc degree will be beneficial

Congratulations on getting your MCS degree.

Mitali

Thanx Mitali...

the degree in not in hand yet, but will be soon in 2 months period... as u say that i put sum supporting docs which shows my achievement but i can not... at CHC London web site it is clearly illustrated that no provision certificates or letters will be accepted.. original degree and transcripts are must....

so i think i must wait for my degree as i have more than 3 months time remaining to submit my full application. .... what you say..?

Hi Saki / Mitali,

i have one question in regards to getting the employment contract..

As is live in Kuwait and due to the Kuwaitization policy in this country... which states that all companies need a set percentage of locals i.e Kuwaities, my company regisetered a company called GLS. Now this company GLS belongs under the unberalla of the company i work for called CLS. My expericence/reference letter is on a CLS letter head and states that i work for CLS under the workpermit/ residency of GLS.

i was wondering if i need to send in my work contract as i signed up for GLS on the contract ?

or

can i just send in the CLS ref/experience letter accross without the GLS contract as this might confuse the visa officer

note: CLS ref letter is as per the requirement for london VO and dated july 17 2010 and i also have the business card of My Immediate manager who has signed the document.

Cheers
Gavi

Dear its ok with the letter u have, but one thing to be considered in ur contract is that... is there any relation shown in between CLS & GLS... as the CLS is the whole group and GLS in one of its consisting company ( thats my understanding) .... and if there is nothing lyk this in ur contract then you must have to re print the letter from CLS including the information that " CLS is the group of companies and GLS is one of its parts "

it is not necessary that you provide such thing they can contact ur employer and will verify it, but the point is to make the Visa officer easy and comfortable by making some explanation regarding such kind of confusions, so ur application will not waste ur precious time to be wasted in such understandings....

this only what can i say.. u may also consult other seniors to shed sum light on this issue...

Hi Mitali

Don't forget that CIC has a "LOCK IN DATE", therefore the Masters may not be considered as it was received after that Lock In Date.

Just my thoughts. Anyone with any other info, please feel free to correct.

Hi Friends,


i just send it my full set of documents to CHC London.i am worried abt 2 imp things.

1. my all Educations documents(Marksheet & Degree) are notarized copy (Govt Notary Advocate) in simple envolep not a university sealed envolep.

2. POF is Account Balance Confirmation Letter from Govt Bank on Bank Letter head with stamp by Bank.(bcoz i deposit money this month only.so i cant take 3 months banks stmt.this money is mine not a borrowed one.i will maintain this money in my a/c for next few months till the time i get visa)


seniors plz confirm that i am ok for both points or not. :( is this sufficient to get cleanrace for next stage or they will reject my case.

Regards.
