Hi Luqi,

Will we able to make it after yesterday's update
Hi Vancouver14, I guess you can make it easily, since you are next in line. Expecting 2nd July charges to happen from today. But if you observe last cap update on 9th Sept, They were charging 26th June apps then and till yesterday they had reached only till 28th June, but cap update increased by 36. This is only freaking me out as I feel my turn will come only next week and praying that I should also be within the cap just like any other July/Aug applicants

Can anyone tell me roughly how long it takes for a temporary work visa to be issued after a job offer? Slightly off topic for this thread I realise but I am pursuing job options along side my FSWP application?

Dear Members. I have a query . I stayed in US from 6-June-2011 to 5-Dec-2011. that's one day short of 6 months. do i need US PCC too? or if i don't send one, does VO ask specifically to provide one for the US?

Assume you will need a US PCC. Based on what I've seen on this forum, once someone has lived somewhere for more than 5 months, CIC often asks for a PCC for that country.

Processing times vary by visa offices and you can find the officially posted processing times here:

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/temp/workers.asp

Note that it's currently taking longer due to the strike.

If you want to hear about recent experiences from those who have applied and been approved, I would recommend you read through the posts in the Foreign Workers section of this forum.

Look - no one really likes you anymore after your comments. If you want to start afresh, I suggest you start a new account and act like a pleasant human being (like the rest of us). I do not think this forum has any sympathy / any space for jerks.

Andonito..no offence to u. But I guess almost everybody here knows the spreadsheet is just a guide and not a Bible. An average person like me is an Optimistic person and we use the spreadsheet to build hope. After-all Hope is everything in life. if I finally get happy or disappointed out of it is my destiny, so be it. Lets not debate whether its accurate or not, it might not be, but still it does the job for us. I would really appreciate if you can provide us more accurate data if you have by any means. Till then this is the best source we have. Period

I Went to Indian High Commission in LONDON for PCC. They said it would take more than 45 days to issue the PCC. But they are not exactly sure that PCC would be issued within this time. I have to call them after 42 days.

So Dear Applicants from London,

if you want PCC from Indian High Commission, take the initiative now. Otherwise it would be late.
i took from London u need to mail to ACRO - premium service -2 days Normal -10 working days.. Google the ACRO and you will get the mailing address.
