Dear All,

I am doing my Canada PR procedure under FSW-2014 without help of any consultant. By the grace of GOD and with help of you such wonderful people who helped me filing my application, I just got PER e-mail from CIC last week. Now I do have below queries:
1) During waiting time, my passport got re-issued, so now how should I let know about my new passport details to whom? To CIC, Sydney where I sent my application or to NDVO? If to NDVO, then at what mailing address? I am not getting any exact information from the website. I got one link about NDVO , is this the same link on which I should send my updated passport details by filling up on-line form?
2) In PER e-mail, it is clearly written that “If additional documents are required, you will be provided an address to forward required documents. Please inform the visa office of any changes in your application (e.g. change of passport or address etc. Please include a letter identifying what the changes are and any relevant supporting documents.” In above statement VISA OFFICE means my local visa office from India i.e. NDVO, correct? So in that case, in case specific inquiry, I should use above link and I should upload my updated latest passport t details? OR am I supposed to send any hard copies of my latest passport and related documents to NDVO by courier?
3) Now what would be the next step from CIC or NDVO? Will NDVO send me AOR? And then should I approach them OR let them know about my updated passport details?
4) Approximately how much time will it take that NDVO will request for my PCC, medicals & RPRF? What kind of documents generally NDVO ask to submit? I mean any updated/latest proof of fund, latest reference letter from the present employment, etc.? Please suggest if any one got such request from NDVO. Do we need to submit our medical reprts to NDVO or our respective physian/hospital send our medical reports direclty to NDVO?
5) After submitting PCC, medicals & RPRF, when I will be asked to send my passport for stamping visa to NDVO and in how much time they will send return my passport with visa stamps?
6) So overall, after getting PER e-mail form CIC, how much approximately time it will take to get my PR/stamped visa on my passport for Canada?
7) What would be the last step of my entire Canada PR procedure? After getting final visa on my passport am I supposed to fly to Canada in 6-8 months or within a year from the date of visa stamped? What would be the procedure over there after landing in Canada?
How much money I am supposed to take with me? Not more than CAD $ 10000, am I correct?
9) Last question, what should be my minimum stay in Canada after my 1st time landing? Can I come back to India to wrap up all my outstanding matters? If I can, then when should I fly back to Canada again 2nd time and how much days will I have to stay there compulsory to validate/continue my PR with a view to get faster Citizenship?
I know I have asked so many Questions together in one time but I also do not want to bother anyone asking further inquiry, so I tried to ask as much as I could in a single query and can take reference of this single correspondence all the times for my future Canada PR procedure.
I kindly apologize for the long list of my above questions and humbly request to all seniors and experienced team members and all who have any information regarding above asked questions.

Thanking you all in advance....
ALL THE VERY BEST TO EVERYONE...

Blue.

If you had any liabilities like credit card debt etc, then you should have mentioned that there. But since you didn't you don't need to worry about it. This part isn't as important as the settlement funds part. CIC will just think you really don't have any liability and move on. No supporting documents are asked to show liability so you are good.
Thank you very much namaste.I feel relaxed now....

Try to send the application right away if you have the documents ready. Express entry will be more difficult to qualify for and we don't even know full detail of how the system works. So, why wait?

+1 for sharing your story and your perseverance.

I would like to share my story to this forum in order to help others who could be in my situation in the future as I have found useful information here (during back-reading) which helped me come to a decision.

I was gathering my FSW documents for the past months and as I was about to submit, I noticed an error in the Date of Birth of my WES report. I reviewed my school transcripts and found out that it was the one that contained the wrong date of birth. The document my school sent showed that my DOB was November 12, 1986 in lieu of November 02, 1986 which was my real DOB.

I was shattered when I first discovered this because everything was all set, all documents were meticulously checked, and I was good to go. The first thing that came to me was how was I going to fix this.
__________________________________________________________
Here's the time line of the things I did:

  • Inquiry sent on Aug 28 and replied after 3 days with useless answer just mentioning company policy.
  • Sent a formal letter of complaint to the e-mail on the back of the WES report (forgot the address). They replied in 5 days with a notice that my file will be under review for the 2nd time.
  • Also sent a CC of the letter of complaint to the e-mail addresses of WES regional managers which I found on the WES thread. Some replied using a drafted auto reject message which says that I should use their website for inquiries.
__________________________________________________________

I checked the WES account online and found out that the status changed from COMPLETED to FILE UNDER REVIEW. After a total of 12 days, they have come to a decision and changed my WES report which was also electronically sent to CIC and that it will be sent via International Express with tracking. Checked it out and I am set to receive the file in 2 days.

They completely changed the date of birth but added a note on the degree equivalency and stated that the transcript they received from the school was November 12, 1986. Which was fair enough for me.

__________________________________________________________

Prior to decision, I chose to lodge my file along with the following:

  • Cover Letter with personal explanation
  • Original WES report (with wrong DOB)
  • E-mail replies from WES
  • Certificate from my registrar attesting that there was a typographical error in my transcript
  • Transcript of records with corrected date of birth

I used JeetVISA's situation as a basis to my situation. He already received PER with an application with a WES report which also contained an error which was later corrected electronically.
_______________________________________________________

I would personally like to extend my personal thanks and +1s to future_canadian, Oscar7, ashif_eee, and Century for helping me out with this decision. More power to this forum and hope to see you all in CAD! :D

Blue.
First of all, if you want prompt answer then avoid writing an essay for questions.

1,2,3) Since you already have PER, you should next expect AOR from NDVO. This could be within a month or two. Once you get AOR, then you can submit your new passport details to NDVO.

I will not comment on any of the "how long does it take between ....." type questions because the time can be highly variable among different applicants. If you are interested, you can check the spreadsheet (both 2013 and 2014) to get an idea.

7,8,9) The last step is landing in Canada with the PR visa within one year of its issuance and filing for the PR card with canadian address. You need to take/show the minimum amount of funds required for your family size. You can take more than 10,000 CAD in cash equivalent but you need to declare it to customs. There is not minimum or maximum amount you need to stay during this visit. You just need to live in Canada for two years out of five years after landing to be able to renew your PR. Citizenship requirement is different and I don't know much about that.

CIC is currently processing May 23 applications. You will need to wait a few more weeks before they charge your application fee and then again a few more weeks from that to receive any communication (PER) from CIC. ONly then you will be able to track your application. No need for worry right now.

If to NDVO, then at what mailing address? I am not getting any exact information from the website. I got one link about NDVO , is this the same link on which I should send my updated passport details by filling up on-line form?

brother u r right, u must notify ur vo that is ndvo, all communications and interactions will be done between u and ndvo after receiving per. I don't know contact details of ndvo, u have to look for it.

2) In PER e-mail, it is clearly written that “If additional documents are required, you will be provided an address to forward required documents. Please inform the visa office of any changes in your application (e.g. change of passport or address etc. Please include a letter identifying what the changes are and any relevant supporting documents.” In above statement VISA OFFICE means my local visa office from India i.e. NDVO, correct? So in that case, in case specific inquiry, I should use above link and I should upload my updated latest passport t details? OR am I supposed to send any hard copies of my latest passport and related documents to NDVO by courier?

I would suggest you to send hard copies as well, uploading electronic copies can/will work but hard copies are more appreciated and considered. u can use courier service for faster mailing experience.

3) Now what would be the next step from CIC or NDVO? Will NDVO send me AOR? And then should I approach them OR let them know about my updated passport details?

cic or cio wont contact u now, ndvo will. they are not issuing AOR this year, u will directly receive MR in next two months time.yes u must let them know about ur passport change.

4) Approximately how much time will it take that NDVO will request for my PCC, medicals & RPRF? What kind of documents generally NDVO ask to submit? I mean any updated/latest proof of fund, latest reference letter from the present employment, etc.? Please suggest if any one got such request from NDVO. Do we need to submit our medical reprts to NDVO or our respective physian/hospital send our medical reports direclty to NDVO?

it will take about 2 months time from receiving per to get MR call. in the mean time u start preparing PCC as it takes more time so by the time u receive MR or pcc call, it will be ready with u. ndvo can call for any documents (indian member please shed some light on it), u don't need to send ur medicals, ur doc will send it themselves to ndvo.

5) After submitting PCC, medicals & RPRF, when I will be asked to send my passport for stamping visa to NDVO and in how much time they will send return my passport with visa stamps?

after medicals, pcc and rprf, u will get call for passports within one month time, they will stamp visa in 2 weeks time and u get back ur passports in 3rd or 4th week.

6) So overall, after getting PER e-mail form CIC, how much approximately time it will take to get my PR/stamped visa on my passport for Canada?

after per, for Indians this year, its approx. 7 to 8 months time (expected,it can be longer or shorter).

7) What would be the last step of my entire Canada PR procedure? After getting final visa on my passport am I supposed to fly to Canada in 6-8 months or within a year from the date of visa stamped? What would be the procedure over there after landing in Canada?

the last step wud be ofcourse flying in A380....to fulfill ur dreams :D


How much money I am supposed to take with me? Not more than CAD $ 10000, am I correct?

u can take as much money as u can, more then 10000, u have to declare it at airport in Canada. u can take millions with u as long as they are urs and legal.

9) Last question, what should be my minimum stay in Canada after my 1st time landing? Can I come back to India to wrap up all my outstanding matters? If I can, then when should I fly back to Canada again 2nd time and how much days will I have to stay there compulsory to validate/continue my PR with a view to get faster Citizenship?

u can stay for one day only......but must stay their for about 45 to 60 days to receive initial PR and other cards and documents. u can travel back to ur country and wind up things and can go back. u have to stay about 3 years without leaving to get citizenship.

I know I have asked so many Questions together in one time but I also do not want to bother anyone asking further inquiry, so I tried to ask as much as I could in a single query and can take reference of this single correspondence all the times for my future Canada PR procedure.

I kindly apologize for the long list of my above questions and humbly request to all seniors and experienced team members and all who have any information regarding above asked questions.
