FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

[thetwo]

If I were u, I would have mailed it and also send the receipt by courier. You are on the last stages of your application, so why take the risk one sided..

hope it helps

Well I have already mailed it, but it went by normal mail and may take like 2 weeks since it is holiday season. I wanted to send it by email too and wasn't sure where to submit it since email instructions are not given in the email they sent.

Hi

What's the latest MR from NDVO?

I am July 16th waiting for my MR. I would like to know once I get MR should I have to send PCC original or copy? How about payment should I have to send DD or pay by CC?

Its hard to predict MR. PCC should be in original. You can pay in both payment methods.

DD - 26700 rupees per applicant , Favour of CANADIAN HIGH COMMISSION, Payable at NEW DELHI
CC - They will provide you a link for online payment and amount is 490 canadian dollars per applicant.

Good Luck For Further Process....

Hi Guys,

I had sent my application on 20th via ups and it reached cic today, 24th around 12 pm canada time. Ups has updated this status on the website "THE RECEIVER HAS REQUESTED THAT WE HOLD THIS PACKAGE FOR A FUTURE DELIVERY DATE"
Dont know why cic did not accept today as, they were not off as per the info we have.
Ups has not updated any date when they will retry delivering the package but, have just mentioned that Delivery will be rescheduled.
Hope, they accept it under fsw 2014. Do u guys have any idea if they will be accepting on 29th,30, 31st

Jamie

On the latest update of CIC on 16th December of applications received, if you note under the PHD stream you will notice the following sentence:-

[Applications received toward the overall cap: 227 of 500 (as of November 19, 2014).]

Can we generalize this sentence and consider it applicable to other occupations as well?

and should we understand that the status of total applications received for all the occupations and for each occupation separately being displayed on the CIC webpage as updated on 16th December, simply reflects those application parcels that are reached at CIO till 19th November?

And only applications from 19th November till today are not reflected in this 16th December update?

CPC-CTD-Ottawa @ cic.gc.ca

But note, all the VOs discourage to send the same thing in multiple media.

In the email, do add that you already sent it through normal post so that they can take proper care/note.

For PHD stream, as number of applicants are less, CIC specify till the date it count. For FSW, they don't specify the date. CIC rather specify it as "Since May 4".

On the latest update of CIC on 16th December of applications received, if you note under the PHD stream you will notice the following sentence:-

[Applications received toward the overall cap: 227 of 500 (as of November 19, 2014).]

Alhamdulillah done with medicals todays at IOM Karachi.

the experience was good but it took almost 8 hours to complete!

on phone I already took appointment for today at 9:30am. reach there and reported at the window at 9:15am, the kind lady said to wait 15 mins more! I was astonished at the punctuality of Pakistanis!

then at 9:30am they took my attendance in a register, gave me form and let me enter the facility. I took the token number and from this point the Great Wait started!

after 3 hours, at 12:30pm my turn came....before me there were only 15 applicants.....so they processed 16 applicants in 3 hours.....that's quiet slow!

anyways I approached the registration counter, they took my documents copies, fees and asked me to go for lab tests 1st.....registration took 30 mins.

1st test was eyes testing, weight and height.........done in 10 mins
2nd was urine sample....done in 10 mins
3rd was blood sample......done in 30 mins
4th was physical examination........done in 40 mins

till now I have spent 4:30 hours!

then I came back and waited for x-rays.it took 1 hour in waiting.........so it was 5:30 hours!

then they asked me to do the Polio vaccination also and submit the copy of certificate within 2 days...I asked can I do it today? they said yes but we are open till 5:30. its now a mandatory requirement of LVO for applicants from Pakistan. I asked what if I don't submit it.....they said it can delay ur app process by one month cos LVO will send u additional email to do polio vaccination, so better submit it along medicals to save time.

I rushed to Agha Khan Hospital, there it took 1:30 hours to do the polio vaccination!.........parking is at one corner and u have to travel through whole agha khan to reach the building near gate 1 to do vaccination!

went back to IOM and gave them the photocopies of certificate....total 7:45 hrs till yet!

overall experience was great in terms of staff friendliness, caring, support and cooperation. all doctors, lab staff and everyone was very cooperative and caring. even the guy at reception and even the security guards were all in very warm friendly mood and very casual in talks. the only thing that will kill u is WAITING TIME!

the docs said they will update LVO in 4 days....which they normally do. now they don't know how much time LVO takes to update the ECAS. as its Christmas and holiday season, so they said to expect any update in ecas minimum by 2nd week of Jan inshALlah.

NOTE: there is NO e-medical facility for Pakistani applicants in Pakistan. if u r doctor by profession then u have to go under 4 extra blood tests which includes Hepatitis A,B&C, TB and 2 more (I don't remember) and u have to pay for these additional tests. as my spouse is doctor but not the primary applicant, still she have to go under these tests. guys prepare ur POLIO Vaccine certificate prior to ur medicals, as it is mandatory requirement by LVO, so better to have it ready or u will have to rush like me, IOM don't tell this on phone but ask for it when u go for medicals.

Good info, specially the polio one! thanks budz +1
