FSW 2013 SINGAPORE VISA OFFICE - LET'S CONNECT HERE

[jashim]

After making the Case Specific Enquiry I found the below sentences:

Your enquiry has been sent to the visa office processing your application. You should receive a reply within 28 working days (by email, regular mail or fax).

If your application is within normal processing times you may not receive a reply from the visa office.

If your message contains new information for your application (e.g. adding a newborn or change of address) your file will be updated but the visa office may not respond to your email.

মাঝখানের লাইন নিয়ে আমার আপত্তি আছে। অনেক ভাইয়েরা ই প্রত্যুত্তর পেয়েছে, তাই আমাকে ও দিতে হবে । শেষ এর লাইনটা ভালো লাগলো।

Dear Brothers,

I am sharing a bit interesting news about Singapore....They have issued MR+PPR+PCC for two MI-2 (2010 opening) and two MI-3 (2011 opening) on the same week...

So for the first time I have observed 4 MR within a week...

And the important observation is they have not issued MI3 applicants medical after 2012 aug. So now they have started to issue for our just prev applicants....

Lets see what they gonna do ....will they keep this pace or not....

Here is the two MI-3 applicant whom got MR on two/one day earlier:


GOD IS GREAT....

All I am understanding is if 2010 and 2011 applicants are getting MR now, and if this pace continues we are not suppose to get MR this year (correct if I am wrong) however, sgvo not suppose to keep 2013 applicants in queue so that they can deal with older applicants but they suppose to work on 2013 and the older applicants at a time and should have completed last year!!! But we all are still waiting

Brother,

Inshallah God will not frustrate us....They may change their pace starting from the earlier week....

Stay positive...

Brother,

They may change their pace starting from the earlier week....

Stay positive...

I wish SGVO could hear this sentence

 

[sbcanada]

You may do it by CSE by providing your info (UCI, Date of birth,....), state some sentence about your job changes (where you were & where you are working right now) in the box provided there at CSE page....then upload your scanned copy of offer letter/joining letter/contract paper from your new employer. If I were in your position then I would try to attach the release letter/experience letter (for the duration clarification) from my previous employer as well.

Oh! this is just my opinion. Hope Ashif Bhai & other senior member will give you the right direction.......

Thanx Jashim & ashif bro for ur kind information

Temporary foreign worker rule:-

http://tribune.com.pk/story/725227/stricter-regulation-canada-overhauls-foreign-worker-rules/

Summary:-

Canadian employers were prioritising foreign workers over Canada. And to stop this new rules are being imposed on employers which will compel them to choose Canadians first over foreign temporary workers.

Now I have a feeling if someday we could get to Canada, we will be able to manage a good job.

I really wish SGVO will continue this pace..

Congratulation to HMU and Hasanimamsujan vai and wish you good luck.

Dear Forum mates,

By the grace of Almighty Allah I have received MR, PC, POF and PP request on 20-06-2014 from SVO through email. Please pray for me as well as other forum mates who have got these types of good news and those who are waiting for the same.

Akash

As about 20% of the applicants are in forum, the weekly MR number should be higher, I reckon. Insallah Ashif bhai they will keep the pace and hopefully increase it

From my point of view, our files first kept for “initial review” after coming from CIC to SGVO. Usually this is the phase where the visa officers asked for the documents if they find it necessary and obvious for the completion of the file. If everything is right then the file is moved to “final review” phase. When the officer finishes reviewing our file finally, s/he will send MR request and other staffs to the applicant. But here the main concern is time. How much time it will take to complete the review and send MR totally depends upon them. From one month (tomsware bro’s link below) from now to one and half year or more (ref-akash ento bro, who got mail of “final review” in Jan 2013 and MR on June 2014).

LVO works in opposite direction rather; they give MR request first and then send the file for overall final review, I guess.

WHAT DO U THINK GUYS?

Brother,

Appreciate ur analysis....

Sometimes it varies for the LVO cases.....Most of the applicants are still waiting for Medical...

And the time is totally depends on Singapore Visa Office.

Wait and pray for each other brother......
