Hi all,

First best of luck to all applicants

Now the official notification is uploaded, should we still wait for forms to be updated or they will be same

Experts kindly share past experiences
It is always recommended to wait for the instructions guide updated once the changes are updated on the CIC website then you can proceed to start the process...

Wish you good luck with your further application process....

Hi,

I hope someone here will give me feedback to my some of the queries posted below.

I don't have original IELTS result as it was submitted to QSW scheme a year back. Can I submit notarized copy of it along with the receipt of AOR sent to me by MICC?

I have a balance of 5000 CAD at my account since six months but I need 18000 CAD to apply for FSW. Can I submit balance certificate of 18000 CAD by adding rest 13000 CAD immediately?

What point is granted for 15 years of total education under education factor? any idea as I have not begun ECA.

do they change the forms even after official gazette notification.

my only concern is that this is a race, and last time it took less then 2 weeks for similar to mine noc code cap to get filled

Need help and past experience on this.

How long should i Wait as it takes 4 days for post to reach canada

I don't think they will accept notarized IELTS. You shouldn't take a change. British Council will issue you a new report in 15 days if you provide a letter from Police that your original IELTS was lost. I did the same ;) Whic country r u from by the way?

Hello Seniors and fellow members,

I have a question regarding 'choosing the visa office' in the General Application Form.

I have been living in the US for the last 6 years and I understand i can choose either US (LA or NYC) or India (New Delhi) Visa office.But due to some uncertainties over my GreenCard and H1B extensions goof ups/delays I am contemplating of choosing New Delhi.If in a best case scenario, my application were be to processed 'successfully' should

1 I have to go to India to submit the passport and wait in limbo for 4-8 weeks until I get the passport ? or
2.I could submit the passport in any of the visa offices in the US to get it stamped ? or
3.Just choose US visa office in the General application and transfer the case to India if I had to leave US in future due to visa issues ?

Has anyone faced/facing a similar situation or know a better way to handle this situation ?

I appreciate yours input and apologize if this post were to be against the intended topic

-thanks

Guys,, any sample work experience letters. Duties not required because it's specific to NOC, but any sample letter with other information will be helpful.

This thread is growing so fast!

I applied in 2013 under FSW NOC 1112, but my package got returned, having been received after the quota of 300 was reached.
Now I do intend to re-apply, re-using as many documents as possible.

A few questions:
1. what would be the earliest acceptable dates on the employer letters? For NOC 1112 my letter is dated June 18 2013, and for another NOC that I have experience in, the date is June 19 2012. I remember at least for the primary NOC, one has to have in the letter a min number of job duties satisfied from the total set of job duties listed in that NOC on the CIC website, with the first 1-2 duties being mandatory - can someone confirm?

2. my old IELTS is from December 2011, would it be ok now to send the application as soon as possible and include proof of registering for a new IELTS test, together with the official report from the 2011 exam?

3. last year I used a law firm to help prepare my application (which wasn't of much help...) and I only had one ECA report which was sent to them. This ECA report is now in my hands. Would I need to order a new report that doesn't show the name of the law firm?

Thank you anyone for any insights!

It should be a valid notarized affidavit from your parents mentioning your name.

WORK EXPERIENCE RELATED QUERIES

If the letter does not contain ALL details that are required (previous company have said they will mention only designation and job duties description),
OR
If it is not available (my current company has refused),

then what is best option for me?

As per the checklist in IMM5612E the experience letter MUST CONTAIN ALL The information as below?

  • specific period of your employment with the company
    positions you have held during the period of employment and the time you spent in each position
    your main responsibilities and duties in each position
    your total salary plus benefits in each position
    number of hours worked in each position

I keep reading about affidavit in the thread but some say it is not useful/valid. Is affidavit acceptable and recommended?

Also, is it okay for the letter to be addressed to "WHOMSOEVER IT MAY CONCERN"?

Please advise.
