My spouse's current occupation is "Bioanalytical Research Associate" and she intends to continue in the same field (Biotechnology) if/when she reaches Canada and finds such a job.

Can someone quickly advise what her "intended occupation" should be? Does it have to be from the NOC list, or can I just write the same "Bioanalytical Research Associate" as intended occupation too?

Thank you and all the very best!!

Hi

I have a question , as per the step 1 we need to inform CIC for any changes to family composition
"Do you intend to give birth or adopt a child prior to becoming a permanent resident?"

Should I just email CPC-Ottawa about expected new member in family (last week of October this year is expected due date), and send our passports ??

Or is there any other procedure for that ?

CONGRATS!!!!!!!

May I ask when did CIC receive your application?

 

[migratecanada2012]

Hi

I have a question , as per the step 1 we need to inform CIC for any changes to family composition
"Do you intend to give birth or adopt a child prior to becoming a permanent resident?"

Should I just email CPC-Ottawa about expected new member in family (last week of October this year is expected due date), and send our passports ??

Or is there any other procedure for that ?

I suggest you to follow standard process : Wait till arrival of new family member and inform your VO about this , after your baby born send baby birth certificate and passport to VO , so that new family member can include in your present application to get PR.

I know it will take some time , but this way you becomes sure for getting good result.

 

[sujith.rajan85]

Hi Friends,

Today my bank informed me that my DD was encashed on 1st Aug. My application was received on 12th May.
Does this mean I can expect my PR by end of this month?

 

[sss1]

My spouse's current occupation is "Bioanalytical Research Associate" and she intends to continue in the same field (Biotechnology) if/when she reaches Canada and finds such a job.

Can someone quickly advise what her "intended occupation" should be? Does it have to be from the NOC list, or can I just write the same "Bioanalytical Research Associate" as intended occupation too?

Thank you and all the very best!!

If you want to apply under FSW 2014 then either you or your spouse need to have worked in an occupation from the list of 50 NOCs eligible this year for atleast one year in the last 10 years. The occupation you mentioned for your spouse is not eligible for this year so try to see if if you/spouse can fit in any other occupation.

Also you are free to work in whatever occupation once you have the PR.

 

[Delta_D]

Hope so. Indeed you can expect your PER email by the end of this month.
Best wishes...

Hi,

I'm sorry I should have mentioned that I'm applying for PR under my name and I'm in NOC 2281. My wife will accompany me to Canada. Does her intended occupation still have to be from the NOC list, or can it be anything and CIC won't give a care?

Thanks,

Should I just email CPC-Ottawa about expected new member in family (last week of October this year is expected due date), and send our passports ??

Or is there any other procedure for that ?

Hi NJ-1,

Let us evaluate both the scenarios:
Scenario 1 - you send passports now.
CPC will issue you visa and return your passport within a month, you get your passports on 15th September. You will have only one week to move to Canada from USA as you might not be willing to travel in last month of pregnancy. I personally do not advise this scenario as it is not practical and their are ifs and buts. Such as if CPC delays visa by a week......
Scenario 2 - you inform CPC about addition in family.
You inform CPC about your situation, they will hold your application for now. After baby's birth, enjoy your parenthood for a week, apply for passport. As soon as you get the passports, send them to CPC.
This will add about 4-5 months, but will make sure you enjoy the special moment rather than running around.
