I SENT AFFIDAVIT BECAUSE I DONT HAVE BIRTHCERTIFICATE ...IS THAT OK ?

 

[CA2014]

This is not new regulation. Your consultant have misguided you. If you would have read the guide properly, this mistake never have been made. If any document ( including birth certificate) in your local language, then you should send:
(1) The translated copy in English and notarized.
(2) Certified Copy of your Original certificate. (in your case birth certificate)
(3) An affidavit of translator who have translated the document.
If you will go through the guide you will find this:
Link:
Table of contents : STEP 1 Gather Documents.
Translation of documents

Any document that is not in English or French must be accompanied by:

the English or French translation; and
an affidavit from the person who completed the translation; and
a certified copy of the original document.

I recommend you to Re apply as your 1123 cap is moving very slow. GOOD LUCK.

Thank you all for the replies. Yes i believe so too . hope the new application will not have any issues. However my waiting has now been extended due to this reason.

Dear bros,
I need an important suggestion and too much URGENT. One of my friend sent pictures with rimed glasses. According to CIC's specification, there is a huge chance of not being accepted. What he should do now??

Will it be a wise decision to send the pictures again??

As promissed, I am submitting a new portion of my experience in Ontario in my best effort to distract applicants from the worries of FSWP process.

1) Anyways, a friend on the board here made a great point about IDs and stuff. So, as long as you've dealt with housing, banking, cell phone and primary commodities acquisition you should look for the nearest Service Canada branch and go there with your passport. There you will be issued a SIN (social insurance number). It used to be a plastic card, but now Canada has gone poor and started issuing this very important document as a printout only. SIN is a must to get a job with a Canadian employer. Although it doesn't look like much, be sure to treat this document with caution as lately Canada has been facing a surge in identity theft crimes. Most banks and insurance companies would like to learn your SIN when you apply with them, but keep in mind that you are NOT requires to share it.

2) Driver's license is a more tricky issue. The important thing to get started is bringing a VALID DL issued by your home country with you to Canada. Some provinces have reciprocal agreements with first world countries recognizing each other's driving experience. If you happen to have such DL that was issued two years before the date of application - then it's your lucky day, you take the vision test and are issued an unrestricted license on site. This is where a US, UK or Australia DL will come in handy. Other recognized jurisdictions are available on the respective sections of Provincial transport ministries. In case you have a DL from India, Russia, etc - you will have to enter the licensing program. Even if you are not willing to drive, it's suggested that you should apply for a DL, because in Canada this is the most important piece of ID. If you have been driving for more than two years you can either bring a reference letter from your national DL issuing authority mentioning your total driving experience and authenticity of the document or obtain it from your Consulate in Canada. I would recommend obtaining such reference from your Diplomatic mission for it will be issued in English language and will be easy to follow up in case the DriveTest center wants to run a background check (imagine them calling a local police unit abroad with all that time difference). If they acknowledge your experience you can take the written test right away. It contains 20 questions on traffic rules and 20 questions on road signs. In order to pass you need to give 16 correct answers in each section. The written test costs 15$. If you passed (and you are likely to do so if you went through the Driver's handbook and G1 mock-up tests available online), you are issued a temporary G1 license immediately. Your permanent DL will be delivered by Canada post to your home address in 2-4 weeks. This license is basically meant for identification only as it allows to drive in a car only witn a G full license holder on the passenger seat and has many other restrictions. So you will not be able to drive with it or buy a mandatory car insurance. That's why you will have to schedule a G2(city) or G test(highway). If you pass the G test you can skip the G2. However if you fail the G test, you will have to take G2 first and then reattempt the G. G2 is 56$ and G full costs 86$. In order to take the test you need to bring your own vehicle. For that purpose you can rent a car with your foreign DL which is valid for 60 days since you land. Or you can also buy a G test package from a driving school which will provide you with an instructor giving a mock-up test for one hour and a vehicle for the day of the actual test. These packages cost around ~220$. 90% of applicants fail the first attempt as the driving in Canada differs from other countries considerably. If you make an appointment for a test an opening will usually be available in 3 weeks. So, address this issue ASAP, but don't rush as failures can get the licensing an expensive experience taking into account that you have to rent a car and pay the fee each time. Personally I would recomend doing a G2 test first as it will get you driving although with some restrictions applied.

To be continued.

Thanks a ton. I'm collecting all your blogs and saving them

I am outside India, what I should fill in "TO date" and "Length" in IMM5562 (Supplementary Info Your Travel) document?
Because current visa validity till next year Aug 2015. Shall I keep current date of application or Aug 2015?
If Aug 2015, what would be Length/duration of stay?

It's written in the Guide 7000 :
List all trips you have taken outside your country of origin or of residence in the last ten years

So I don't think that you have to mention the country you live now, it is only for any travel to a third country

Optimist, I hope you'd share that word doc with us before flying to Canada ....

I believe, no question is a silly question as long as it has a purpose. Its good to be free of confusion. The question Nrsing3152 asked must have a purpose. For those applicants who will be ready in January will they be qualified for on-going scheme or not; that was his point I guess. I cleared myself with so many stupid question in this forum. thanks to all seniors. Lets help each other no matter what was it asked for! cheers.

Its not about sillyness. Its about clearly articulating thoughts into words and conveying what we want to ask. Just by by because there are people to answer, we can't keep on asking questions without even being clear about clearly what we want to ask.

If we don't point this, this will continue. If this was to your liking, sorry about it. But, I stand by what I said.
