Hello guys(specially Indians),

It's very sad news that there has been no any interview missions going to arrange in INDIA for this year. BIQ, Hong Kong recently updated the Interview Scheduled and for Asia's there are only 2 missions and that 2 are also going to held in Hong Kong only.So all the concerned applicants(those who have already been invited/who are going to be invited in the near future ) now will require to tight their seat belt and go to HK!!!

It Seems in above link they have given mission Territory wise,for Asian territory means for Asia,regional office is Hongkong so I have doubt that Indians have to go to Hongkong for interview and there is already an embassy in India.Also,they open embassy twice in a year June & November

no palak, this table shows where the missions operate for a given period. these are the locations where the interviews will be conducted. i know a couple of ppl from India who have their interviews scheduled this month at HK.

if the interviews are scheduled in HK, you have to go there. no other way.

but actually it makes no sense. am sure there are truckloads of indian applications piled up in HK. it should be feasible to conduct interviews in India.

Interview........
Received premilinary Evaluation result with shortage of point.
@All,

I know this was suppose to happen the reasons are explained below.


1) Whatever happens rarely few out of hundreds complain about the delay from the concerned BIQ.
2) We are really satisfied with whatever is happening to us and we never ever say this is not fair.
3) If you look to Mideast applicants, they were told they won't have any interview this year as their files were transferred from BIQ damascus to Montreal and they are few times much more than us but what they did was, complaning all the day and nights to ministry of immigration because of the delay and inappropriate performance of their particular BIQ, and Now they have their interview in Turkey.

4) When I am asking you guys that wake up , some of our friends are saying that stay calm and concentrate on french, what is the use of that french when you can take you right.

I am sorry to say this but it seems that they have also understood that we are like this and they have started to take the advantage of this time and have started to call their own people. If you contact the BIQ Hk you will come to know that they are all localied and it happens my dear.

I think they won't call the ordinary Indian applicants to BIQ Hk for interview as of now and It seems they even won't have any program in upcoming months because When I asked her this question she said that they don't have any plan for India now.

When you are asking them about the status of your file they reply that they are still processing your files what does it mean? to some friends they have written that they might start to process their files next year and there is no hope for them in this year so it completely shows that we are all ignored.

Even if they plan to have a Interview in the Month of Feb In India and they start to evaluate your files in early 2012 still you won't make it to FEB 2012 because at least 2 months before the Interview you should be informed about your interview date and place.

Now it is up to you if you want to take your right so let's do something otherwise I assure you for Interview we have to wait at least 1.5 -2 years.

I hope I have not offended anyone here because I really didn't mean it but this is the reality and We have to accept it.

God bless.

Salut Tout le monde,


What Quebec2011 says makes sense. whats theuse of french when u r not called on time, when the interviews are conducted after 2 years you will forget about it.

Actually one should get their interviews max within 8 months from the time they applied. These people are processing the file really slow.
I guess everyone should raise their concern here. Everyone has invested time and money on this and we deserve some response.
They have interview schedule in HK in Sept, Nov , Dec and none of the applicants from india they are calling in for the interview.

Any further comments and suggestions on the same are highly appreciated.
No offense to anyone.

Merci

Je pense que, Quebec2011 la a cité correctement, mais fachement aussi.
Biq HK prendra beacoup de temps, j'ai envoye mon application dans le moi de Oct mais il n' y a pas de news...si ils prendront l'interview dans la moi prochaine dans le Nov, il faut que on doive envoyer le lettre a nous.
Je suis bien agree avec Quebec....nous devons renvoyer notre queries via e-mail ou Tele autrement, nous somme completement negligié par eux.

Every cloud has a silver lining : Je suis aussi sure que, toute les personne y vont dans l'été de 2012...si l'embasade nous autorise CSQ......maintenant les fingers are crossed.......
Nous créons un problème a BIQ, Ils peuvent aussi creer un problem dans notre process d'application.....

On n'a pas le choix....attendez... et demandez le renseignements doucement et coordialement du réceptioniste....

I am not angry my dear, I am Sad , I feel isolated , I feel pity for ourselves that we even can't ask them question related to our files.

See mine and your timeliness it is almost one year, and the processing time update shows that we should have been called to interview but unfortunately we are not.

People with same timeline from other BIQs are waiting to their medicals but we are still to go under preliminary evaluation dear.

good luck

I know people from India are becoming irritated with the speed that BIQ-HK are giving out interviews. That is totally understandable but once you get there you'll realize why they are slow in dishing out interviews. I have no exact figures but when I got there there were three rooms available for those being interviewed. An interview usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour and 15 minutes. I also visited their office a day before the interview but the receptionist on the information desk told me that they were not accepting even visitors after 3pm.

I've also noticed that on that particular day an interviewer usually interviews applicants from a specific nationality. My interviewer previously interviewed a Filipina applicant and then after my interview a Filipino couple was called to her room. Also, I've seen the same thing with other interviewers. The other IO interviewed only Indians and another interviewed only Chinese applicants.

From this observation I could only guess that receiving a large number of applicants from a specific country would definitely slow down the speed of processing for application for that country. I think the bulk of applicants from Asia comes from China and India and this is backed up by immigration stats released by Quebec.

Also do take note that BIQ-HK serves a 60+ countries in Asia. They have the most number of countries served compared to other BIQ offices. They cannot focus on one country to process alone.

Good luck to all applicants though. I hope you can be patient and wait out on your turn for the CSQ. I know all you guys can make it! Bonne chance!

well said solokru ! i was about to type something along these lines....

i too read some article released by the quebec authorities stating that the max no. of applicants are from china. plus, BIQ is said to be relying on China to provide the bulk of numbers to Quebec. the BIQ even conducts some sessions in chinese cities educating the chinese abt the opportunities there and just promoting quebec. http://bit.ly/opuhQb

we've all seen the surge in quebec applications since the cap came into force for FSW, the no. of new joinees on the quebec threads are a testament to that too ! and most of them were Indians.... so i was thinking, if there were so many indians applying to the BIQ and we were 2nd in place, then the no. of chinese should be humongous !!

i personally dont think there is any point calling up the BIQ relentlessly and enquiring about the status. there is a huuuuuge queue out there and going by the timelines and notices on the BIQ, its gonna be a long wait and slow ride. its maddeningly frustrating, but there is no way anyone is jumping the queue.

many ppl are in fact being called in early (owing to their professions-nurses for eg) ! but for people like quebec2011 who is supposed to get their interview calls now (as stated on the site) its justifiable. if he doesnt get it even in nov, then its time to go wild and use everything possible... till then we gotta wait it out...

no offence meant to any1, just my point of view.

Hi,

First of all congratulations for getting that ever waited paper which is changing the life towards success.

But I would like to say that I don't think that number of applicants from India is even comparable to china. BIQ Hk as vibez has rightly pointed out is holding information session to Chinese applicants but they have never done such thing to other Asian countries, this shows that how bias they are . As you know that I should Have been called to Interview but unfortunately they are saying that they are still doing Preliminary evaluation of my file, which is really frustrating to me.

Good luck
