Folks,

I believe XBOX case has been expedited due to political unrest in his province related to Telangana..

This is my thought and assumption. May or may not be true.

Wait for another Andhra based NDVO applicants AOR or MR to find if I was rite.

Friend our forum member aditya_ is from Hyderabad only and he got his AOR from NDVO only.

Thanks.

Friends, Congrats to those who received their PER/AOR/MR/RPRF after my last post. I have few queries.

1. Is CIC contacting the company HRs to verify the authenticity of the Experience letter and the duties/responsibilities of the Applicant in the company? The reason for my question is that my company HR who had signed the experience letter and provided her contact details in the letter(for any further information) has gone for Maternity leave for 6 months(she is expecting twins and thats why extended leave) and there will be no one to cover her emails and desk-phone. If CIC tries to contact her and does not get any response then my application might go for a toss. Should I inform CPP-O about her leave or shall I just wait?

2. I got the FBI Criminal Summary report for myself and spouse after I submitted the application. Shall I courier that to CIC now or wait for further instructions from them?

3. What is the importance of the "Destination in Canada" that they ask in the application? Does CIC have any preferred destination for specific NOCs that make the case stronger? Can I change the "Destination" during any time in the application process and can I land at a different destination while there is a different destination mentioned in my application?

This forum has helped so many applicants because of the selfless help from other members. Hope that we all meet some day in Canada :) :)

Hi gb,

Well i believe the following answers should work...
1. Please do not confuse the case officers by giving unwanted information. If she is on maternity leave, they will definitely look for another way for verification. i mean ... their experience letter verification process may not always be a detailed call to the person who issued the reference letter. For example, they may just call at reception and check if you work there...thts it...or maybe any other way....so i would advice not to inform them anything.

2. FBI Criminal summary report should be forwarded. do not wait.. u belong to CPP-O and processing is fast. so do not delay.
3. Destination in canada ofcourse plays a little role. i mean there should be availability of jobs for the NOC we belong to in the destination we selected. but i also don't believe that any case can be rejected on such circumstances. it can be a general question by CIC to have some stats on population distribution.
In any case, if you would definitely want to change your destination, you may just inform them via letter. In any case, there will be no restriction in moving around canada laters.

i hope other senior members can also guide you better. best of luck 8)

With that argument applicants from Egypt should have their visa by now. :)

Guys be patient...no point speculating and overthinking how CIC should work.

Hi Sinestra. I missed a lot while I was on international travel.

Just wanted to know were your passport going to expire that you renewed it. Mine's up for expiry in October 2014. Don't know when should I apply for renewal specially when my file is already in New Delhi VO and they can ask for it anytime.
plus I think I'll also have to update VO on travel history as I just came back from Thailand.

Mate,

Good to have you back.
I got the renewed passport yesterday. I had applied it on 3rd Oct. That is pretty fast considering the time it took for my passport.
Moreover my daughter's passport now sports her signature :) :) :) (she's 5)

You have loads of time for your passport to expire, however if you have the desire to renew it, I recommend that you take the Tatkal route. Note that the appointment date can be a month later in case of Tatkal too. (I don't know if the timelines for appointment has changed)

I would say you wait till they call for your passport as it has a good 1 year validity. Once MR is done and your passport is stamped, you would obviously land on our new motherland and apply for a PR card and which would be used to travel to Canada.

I will quote Manishsb here

sinestra,
I will not advice you to send the passport for renewal, because of 2 reasons
1. If you get passport request from CIC then it will be available with you to send it immidiatly.
2. July 2014 is still enough time and i thnk since you have recived PER already it should be quick to get MR and Passport ..

PR visa which comes of passport is only for entry into canada..you get a PR card then onward to use for your trips to/from Canada.
If you think its going to be quick passport renewal then i would suggest go ahead get it renewed.

Just an advice, because my passport is also expiring same time next year and i was thinking to send for renew in indian consulate in usa but thank god i ddnt sent it..
you never know what time take for renewal..

i have applied for under NOC category 3142, my application was sent on 26-june and reached CIC on 2-July(i m on the spreadsheet as well), payment mode is my SBI credit card, however till date neither my cc is charged nor i have rcvd any feedback,

pl help to guide me.
there is progress on 4 to 8 july applicants at the time, i m confused and worried.
 
Oh XBox,
Congratulation for MR.
U are the true inspiration...
Going through your past post.....have you been rejected twice on student visa?
Is this the reason they proceed your case from CPP-O in special way?In manuals too, they mentioned if applicable ,transfer to other office
I am sorry if am speculating things? Just query on my mind.

All the best to all of us.

Hight light from manuals
9.1. Putting an application into process at the CIO
Following a positive completeness check and final determination of eligibility for processing under
Ministerial Instructions, if any, in place at the time of application, the CIO will:

Telengana issue has nothing to do with it. Is this Xbox user from Andhra?
