Thanks Vats, I will wait then. But what about the options I can expect now. Am I accepted and only medical and police certificate condition need to be fulfilled ? Or I may also be interviewed ?

How long did you guys waited from your card being charged to actual receiving the PR which will allow you to fly. This is quite important question for me as I wasn't expected that my application will have no errors as it was filled in such a rush...

Will be grateful for the advice. Cheers.
Hello Michal

Congratulations on your CC charge. Now you need to wait for the PER (Positive Eligibility Review) mail from CIO. Once you are through with that, you file will be transferred to you concerned VO. The VO will communicate whatever they need with regards to your case.

The average time between application receipt at CIO and fee charge for most 2013 members has been about 70 days. and Fee to PER take about 10 to 15 days.

Best Regards and Happy waiting

Could someone help me understand this criteria. Does this mean that I can not get 23 points for education because my Master is in finance and not in the listed professions? How many education points I can get in that case - only 21 because I don't have two degrees to get 22?

"University degree at the Master's level or equal OR

University level entry-to-practice professional degree (or equalFootnote 1). Occupation related to the degree must be:

•NOC 2011 Skill Level A, and
•licensed by a provincial regulatory body.
Note: Degree program must be in one of these fields of study: Medicine, Veterinary Medicine, Dentistry, Podiatry, Optometry, Law, Chiropractic Medicine, or Pharmacy.
23 points "
Hello emiiuki

MAy I know why you are thinking that you will not get the 23 points? Financial analysts are in this years list but the cap has already been reached. When did you send you application?

Masters in Finance will get you 23. The point that is confusing you is related to medical professions.

Best of luck

Thank you ESZB for the reply. Indeed, this is the best forum on the Canada visas in the Internet.

Just as an addition, I have found a good article summarising the whole process in stages:
http://ourjourneytocanada.wordpress.com/fsw/the-process/

The first stages are as follows:

1. They crack open our couriers and do a initial documentation check for completeness and compliance of the application.
# Check if the application forms are all COMPLETELY FILLED, payments are OK, all required documentation are enclosed.
# Check if we have a valid 1 year experience in the claimed NOC(a part of the 29 occupations list)
# Check the CAP has been reached for that NOC yet.
# They accept the payment as submitted with the application and that's the last stage of the completeness check.

2. If the application passes the completeness check, it's put in the queue for the Eligibility Review. If not they send the application back stating the reason for return.

3. During the Eligibility Review, they check and award points for the 6 selection factors, including Education, Work Experience, Age, Language proficiency, Adaptability, Arranged Employment. In addition to these 6 factors, they check for the proof of funds as per the guidelines. They also do the background check for the above at this point before awarding points(eg, they confirm the Job duties comply with the requirements for that particular NOC and that the experience documents are satisfactory.

4. If the applicant gets 67 points or more, then his/her application will be transferred to the visa office identified by the applicant on the IMM 0008 for a final selection decision'. CIO will send out an email confirming this which will indicate a Positive Final Determination of Eligibility for processing. If the application fails Eligibility review, again CIO sends an email out to confirm the reasons for the same, and that they are initiating a refund of the processing fee.

5. Once an application receives a Positive Final Determination of Eligibility for processing from the CIO, applicants will be able to check the ECAS status of their application. We can use the application number/UCI number/Payment receipt number, all of which we can get from the email that CIO sends out, to check the ECAS status.

6. Once the file reaches the visa offices, the background checks and documentation checks are initiated for the application. They may request for an interview if they are not satisfied with the documentation provided.
