Need advice on one issue:

If a person has resided in 2 or more different states within India for more than 6 months at a stretch, do we need to submit the police clearance certificate for all the states or the police clearance certificate from the current state of residence would suffice?

Kindly help out on this

Dear All
I got medical examined on 29th June, and sent (via courier) London Visa office my updated police certificate and schedule A (back ground declaration) form dated June 30, 2012.

In my all initial forms (2009) and updated forms (June 2012) my employer remains same but on 1st July (Next Day after submitting Schedule A and police certificate) I resigned and joined another company same day.

Do I need to update Visa office regarding my new job or remain quite?

Please, advise.
Thanking you in advance.
yes update everything
I know of a case that got declined case he didnt updated the job letter

Hi all members,

I have benefitted too much from your useful advise. Can you please guide me here for a little issue. My case is under processing since Feb 2012. I have submitted updated docs, PCCs' and two photos of each family member in the last month. Now,God has blessed me with children so;
1. Do i need to just inform them or resend updated forms.
2. The passports and B-form will take time to be issued. Especially, it would require the baby to keep eyes open during photo which is close to impossible for infants as they awake in their own times. Is it compulsory to have passports for infants or it could be submitted later on.
3. The fees draft is required to be sent to CIO Nova Scotia, Canada or CHC London which is processing my case.
4. How to meet the conditions of updated immigration pictures for infants with eyes open etc

THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN THROUGH THIS STAGE PLEASE SUGGEST ABOUT THE ABOVE THINGS IN MY MIND.

Hi all I think new rule has put more emphesis on language, this is what I could understand about points for language from Canada Gazette link. Explaination by hotheart007 was by mistake done on existing point system.

First Official Language:
Maximum 24 points
New Mandatory Minimum
Minimum threshold in all abilities
Initially set at CLB/NCLC 7 band 4 pts per ability (16 points)
Threshold + 1 CLB/NCLC level i.e 8 band 5 pts per ability (20 points)
Threshold + 2 CLB/NCLC level i.e 9 band 6 pts per ability (24 points)

So below 7 band will not get any points

June 2012 - police clearance certificate submitted

Haven't heard anything since. No file transfer even though my office is Buffalo, no passport request, nothing. Hopefully I'll hear something soon...
Still waiting...

I'm getting a little antsy because there's not been any acknowledgement of my medicals being received. At this point I should be expecting a passport request and wrapping up the whole process, no?

Immigration Minister Jason Kenney has stated that “the new Skilled Worker program will be limited to applicants in NOCs O, A, and B, but won’t be limited to particular occupations.”

While the Minister has said that there won’t be a limitation on particular occupations, it is expected that there will be an overall cap or limit to the number of applications that will be accepted for assessment by CIC.


Kenny has said that under the new policy no particular occupations would be outlined for eligibility under FSW class. Above statement makes it clear that most probably they would not delay the processing of files of applicants under 4131 or other such NOC codes because these NOCs were removed from MI2 and MI3.
