[rao1122]

7 may applicant got his package back in New Delhi , India after reviewing
last year it took 2-3 months. it seems this year CIC is using courier service to return packages??
what u guys say....

Thats what i thought as well...or CIC is reviewing faster than they are charging..his application must have been reviewed atleast 15 days back.

Could you please tell me how to calculate part time work experience ?? I mean , for example if I have been working for 3 years and 10 months part time ( 19 hours per week ) how can you calculate the full time equivalent ? or how many years is my work experience in this case ??

Hi, see this direct quote from CIC website (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-who.asp),

B) Minimum requirements
Work experience

If your application is eligible to be processed, we will then assess it to see if your work experience, as described above, is valid.

Your work experience must be:

at least one year (1560 hours), full-time or an equal amount in part-time,
paid work (volunteer work, unpaid internships, etc. do not count),
in the same occupation, and
within the last 10 years,
at skill type 0, or skill levels A or B of the 2011 edition of the Canadian National Occupational Classification (NOC)

So calculate your part time experience, (19 hours per week for 3yrs, 10 months or as applicable) and if its up to 1560 hours, then it is equivalent to one year full time and you can apply among other requirements. All the best

Thanks, just got it done...A great advantage with Thomas Cook...They accept payments from CREDIT CARDS...which give you a months credit by default.....

Haaa that's kinda funny. ..paying for a DD using a CC...to send to CIO...just to make sure the payment goes through cause the CC (used to issue DD) might be rejected. ..

All the best

Please make it half ...or you can take my calculation as explained below :

3 year + 10 months = 46 months = 200 weeks X 19 hours a week = 3800 hours / 30 h/w = 126.66 weeks = 29.12 months = 2 year + 5 months.

Congrats Oscar !!
'In -process' is a +ve news ...man, you should start saving on beers now.. to keep your words

Guys first off I apologize for not putting my details in the spread-sheet, but having had my package returned in 2 previous years I was a bit superstitious. Please accept my apology, no bad intentions here!

Just having read brother mk's tough news I too like Century was hyper-tensed especially because I am also a May 7th file received applicant for NOC 0111. The reason for my worry was also the fact that I did not have reference letter on company letter head, although I provided a letter by my manager on plain A4 paper and my manager's business card. I also included my company's offer letter from the time of joining, my pay stubs for 3 months and my form 16 for 2 years, issued by my company.

Please note that my payment was made by DD. Just now, although being very nervous (since hearing brother mk's news), I decided to check the ECAS status and it shows IN PROCESS. Additionally I have asked my bank to check the status of the DD, which I shall know by the end of the week.

Does the IN PROCESS status mean my payment must be charged, and I should await the PER e-mail? I am so very tensed as last week after checking with several members here I had again couriered a cover letter (which reached CIC yesterday, received by Mike) that explains why I could not send a reference letter on company letter head.

Damn this is a quite a moment!!! Thanks brother ashif, Century, Partner Shah (Oscar Shah LLP waley ), neel, future_canadian, kollins and all other friends who have helped one another. Special thanks again goes to ashif and Century for the selfless help they provide here. Time for some beer instead of lunch today...LOL!!!!!

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Seniors, after going thru the discussions over here.. I got a query (may be sounds silly)!!!

By any chance can we check the status of application online with our passport number (my application was received on 28th may for NOC 0112, cc is not yet swiped)??

 

[fsw_2014_2281]

Any 7th may applicant, 2281 NOC getting charged?I see 2281 NOC's not getting charged like 2173 or 2174..Any views on this?

 

[migratecanada2012]

Guys , This time CIC is faster , hope visa offices too will work according to Canada immigration minister orders to compete the applications in 6 months of time period. my fingers crossed

the DD was purchased from Thomas Cook..
They accept Payments made via Netbanking, Debit cards or Credit Cards.

My bank has authorized the tramsaction and I would be collecting the DD in the evening....Is something wrong in this process?

Dont know if its true or not.. just a thought..as one of the forum members whose app received on 7th may already got his package back.. he is from india. it usualy take more that 2 months for it to deliver in india. Atleast that what happend with my previous applications in 2011 and 2012

Thank you so much for your help man ..

@mj.sb

"00" is a Senior level NOC and it wont so much crowded.. pls prepare your Appln & apply again ASAP without worrying about the Cap status. For saving on 'Processing Fee' you can use CC, it is charged only if your Appln is +ve ~ Zero investment 8)

Good luck !

I'm thinking about applying again, but I'm not sure if I can make it before the cap is full? I asked about the charge because we are 4 family members in the application? Do you have any idea about noc 0013?
Thanks
