FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

[shah2014]

Can't say....1111 is added this year but other applicants have started the process from 24th April and those using WES will be faster.

By suggestion, try for WES if they don't accept your institute then still go for ICAS and try ur luck. In case the cap is reached u will have all docs ready for Expression of Interest prog, to be started in Jan 2015.

I am applying under NOC 1111

Can anyone have estimate of WES fee and time taken for Graduation and Post Graduation Assessment?

 

[shah2014]

Yes last yr for FSW, from Jan 2015 Expression of Interest will be applicable.

Guys, is this the last year for the FSW program?

Dear Friend, Is EOI seems better than FSW?

 

[shah2014]

Usually, its 1-2 weeks but check their website for latest time estaimte based on application backlog. Also, check if ur institute is listed with them as they only evaluate for the institutes listed with them. I think they have database of signatories from many institutes from all over the world to speed up the process.

Do anyone have any idea how long it can take to fill the CAP for NOC 3112? I'm planning to send my application by the first week of next month. Will it be very late? What's your opinion? Looking forward for expert's advice. Thanks in advance.

Depends how it is entered in your passport

First Name: is Given name as per passport
Last Name: is Family/Sir name as per passport

If all of your name in passport is written in "Given Name" then Last Name is "N/A" or Not Applicable.

If other docs have different order or spelling, make use of Alias/Alternate name. Keep in mind that if its change in order/spellings no need to provide "Official doc for name change" otherwise, u will have to provide a proof.

My passport mentions complete name "FIRST_NAME SINGH" under "Given name". Surname is blank on passport. So, in which format should I fill the form now? :-\ :'( ???

FSW is first come first serve, EOI is based on demand.

So, if u r highly qualified and in high demand, then EOI may suite u better. But anyways, its going to start in Jan 2015 by which time most of the FSW 2014 applications will be processed.
Secondly, to be in first few applicants for EOI, ur prep for FSW will not go wasted.

You can read abt EOI on CIC website (mainly news section) for better analysis based on ur situation.

Another question guys, I'm confused what to fill for "Given name" & "Family name" ;D. Is SINGH as family name & <FIRST_NAME> as given name correct?

Please write it the way it is written in passport... they will match it DOB and name with passport

 

[maha shahzad]

Well on my passport, complete name is written under given name, while surname is blank.

Also, I checked my student visa application form. On that form, my name was split into given & family name parts. So, officially confused which format to use now.
