Have you applied for GCMS?
No I didnt. The processing time is now 19 months, so nothing will happen before May 2014 for sure, its better to wait.

13 months is for federal applicants who directly apply for PR(without CSQ). For QSW applicants, who has CSQ and then apply for federal, now require more time, which is 19 months.

For sometime now, I've been seeing everyone make fuss about 'the right to leave the province of nomination after becoming a permanent resident'.
I have searched and digested the 'mobility rights and the charter of rights and freedoms' and can say that technically there's no law binding anyone to live in a province by force.Before you start jumping and dancing, I want you to read the full charter very very well (see below).
http://publications.gc.ca/Collection-R/LoPBdP/CIR/904-e.htm#A. Mobilitytxt
If you look closely at this charter, it is said to have so many loopholes. This then give the provincial govt right on the permanent resident status of anyone as per section 6(3) of the charter. For example, as far as I know, one of the conditions for nomination in Saskatchewan is "I intend to live in Saskatchewan and demonstrate my ability to settle and work in Saskatchewan". For signing this form, you've technically declared your allegiance to the province. If you look closely at the declaration you signed, you will see a clause such as "I understand that any false statements or concealment of a material fact may result in my exclusion from Canada and may be grounds for my prosecution or removal" (http://saskimmigrationcanada.ca/sinp-100-9). Leaving the province will amount to lie and this contradicts your reason for applying for provincial nomination in the first instance.
The only way to be totally free from this bondage is when you become a canadian citizen. This does not mean people can still not move out of the province if they so wish to...but it has to be well explained. e.g. no job for your profession in the province. This is just my thought on this whole saga. Meanwhile, I will advise you consult with your lawyer for proper explanation and details before taking any step.
I recently heard that Saskatchewan govt has been sending emails to Saskatchewan Nominated Permanent Residents to supply information such as health card number, pay stubs, etc. The govt also released quota for respective application category.
I really don't know their motive but the provincial nomination is skewed. People who become permanent residents on PNP from outside Canada should and cannot be subjected to the same condition as people who already resides in the province.
I wish you all luck in your decisions!!!
 
I got a passport request for me and my wife on June 11 2013. ;D :D My case went in process (in e cas) on January 14 2013. I asked to pay RPRF late march 2013.
