I (We) decided to sign up with an agency. The problem is chinecheck pa raw nila thoroughly (?) before isubmit sa Quebec which could take about two weeks. Worried lang ako kasi April na baka sooner e bigla na lang di na tumanggap ng nurses for QSW.

Hello,

I am trying to figure out how to help my wife's nephew (who just graduated in the Philippines with a BS in nursing diploma) to immigrate to Canada to practice nursing here. Could anyone please guide us here - what steps need to be taken, and in what order? My relative plans to take the nursing board exam in the Philippines (this is important, right?), and my understanding is he also needs at least 6 months of paid full-time employment in nursing in the Philippines (is it correct?). We live in Ontario, but my wife's sister lives in Montreal (they have a house there) - will it help? Judging from the points, it looks like good French language skills give much more (12-16 points) than 6-23 months job experience (only 4 points). So perhaps he should spend next 6-12 months studying French rather than working as a nurse? (Especially as I'm hearing that finding a paid job for a newly graduated nurse is almost impossible in the Philippines).

So what steps to take with this background?

Thanks a lot for any feedback!

Thank you!

But what about OIIQ - should he start by applying there? Should he do this in parallel to the immigration?

Hi guys! I have some questions again :D. I'm planning to submit my papers next week and I read somewhere (silly me I didn'tbookmark it then) that the papers I should download should have a barcode. How do I get my papers coded then? And when I submit my papers, do I have to include already the police and nbi clearance? Because I don't see anything about these docs being included for the time being or maybe I just skipped that part when I read the forms. Thank you so much to those who can help. Merci!

Hi there, you will need the police clearance on the federal part but on the CSQ it isn't necessary. About the barcoding i didn't remember anything about that. Goodluck to you!

Hi Impertubable_myer,

Thanks for your answers. I have additional questions if you don't mind. Is this the right address to send my application to?

Address
Ministère de l'Immigration et des Communautés culturelles
Direction de l'immigration économique – International
Service Europe de l'Est, Amériques, Asie, Moyen-Orient
285, rue Notre-Dame Ouest, 4e étage
Montréal (Québec) H2Y 1T8
CANADA
Fax: 514 864-9221
E-Mayl: E-Mayl form

And for the bank draft is this the correct recepient?

ATTENTION! Cheques must made payable to the Ministre des Finances du Québec and must include, on the reverse side, the name of the applicant in block letters. Payment in cash and traveller�s cheques is not accepted

Finally, "If you cannot provide proof of social security contributions or proof of exemption from payment of social security premiums, you must provide proof of payment of income tax" do you know if the SSS issues a certificate for proof of exemption of social security contributions? If anyone can provide answers to these questions please don't hesitate to do so. Thank you very much for your inputs. God speed!

Indeed its the address.
About proof of payment to SSS, you can have it online go to there site. Provide pertinent information about you. Then you can access your data. HAve it printed then ask for a certified true copy stamp on your local sss branch. for the tax exemption, go to BIR pasay present your contract overseas and ask for tax exemption certificate.

General Information:

I want to share my experience today. I have finally my POLICE CLEARANCE here in Saudi. I actually bypassed the step by step process given by our embassy in Riyadh. I don't think the letter of endorsement from them is actually needed. Though i obtained one.

Their flow would be to obtain endorsement letter from the phl embassy, present it to the ministry of foreign affairs in riyadh or in dammam. And from the MOFA they will give you endorsement letter to be send in the nearest police station in your location.

On my case I obtained endorsement letter from our embassy. I had the letter after a month though it was already available on the next day. When i was free i went to the police station and request for a police clearance. I asked the police man if there was a different format if one will use it for immigration purpose according to them none and it will be the same for all.

Today i have taken the letter of endorsement from our embassy and brought it to the ministry of foreign affairs. Though the letter of endorsement has a translation to arabic language stating that the Philippine government has no objection for the request of the police clearance, funny that the person in the MOFA disregard it and he just asked for the POLICE CLEARaNCE I have. Viola!,In a matter of 5minutes i have already my stamped Police clearance.

Thank you very much! I didn't know that the SSS gives out certified true copies because whenever I ask them for certification, they always tell me that the print out of the contribution is the only thing they can give. Maybe they are just lazy to provide one. Anyways, I will try to obtain their stamp with my printout.

Or they are just lazy to print it out. Print it yourself and request for their stamp. Explain your purpose of obtaining it, they will be very grateful to help you.

hello everyone!

I received my AOR last December 2013. Until now, I have not received any letter or e-mail from the embassy. Should I be worried?
And also, I have a new job that was not included in my application. Will it help if I send them my COE for my new job?

Thanks! :)
