FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

[zaynahdream]

I have doubts!

I went through the photocopies of my application yesterday and i saw both the original and photocopy of my experience letter for my first job (2004-2007)! but the original Job Description is with me, which means that the photocopy of the job description was sent but without the experience letter. Will that make any issue?

My experience letter from 2008-present was sent anyway.

Please advise seniors!

Hi Optimist3,
I want to resolve some organizational questions in my home country - I really hope there won't be any surprises - and then if everything is according to the plan, I'll land in December.

No, they didn't make any calls, as far as I know. But I've found out from my application GCMS notes that they've sent an email to the CEO of my company (his email address was indicated in my supporting documents). I don't even know if he replied, though.
I don't know if they always do such verifications.

Good Luck buddy!! I am sure you will fly high in Canada. +1 for all the support you have rendered to the forum relentlessly.

Actually, all applications will pass through three consquetive stages in CIO:
1- Completness check: if the application found to be incomplete, it would be returned without encashment of the fee.
2- Enchachment and Eligibility review: CIO officer will check if you have at least one year experience in one of the 50 jobs mentioned on FSW list. If the applicant fails at this stage, they will be refunded.
3- Selection and Admissibility: here CIO officer will check if the applicant gathers 67 points according to factors like age, years of experience in the main NOC or other NOCs, language abilities, and education...... If the applicant failed to reach 67 points, there would be no refund.

"If the initial assessment of your score for points against the selection factors is equal to or greater than the pass mark, your application will be sent by the CIO to the appropriate visa office for further processing and a final decision. If you do not meet the minimum requirements, or do not meet the pass mark against the selection factors, your application will be refused. In either case, a refund of processing fees will not be issued at this stage of the application process." Quoted from Instruction Guide on CIC website.

Thanks for the info.

Can we safely conclude that this "completeness check" (your point 1) is now over for July applicants if they've not had their applications returned till today? And is it that the next logical step for such candidates would be "eligibility review" (your point 2) followed by PER?

You took the words out of my mouth.



LOL!!!

Observed - CIO and NDVO both were working on this Saturday, 2-3 cc charged and 1-2 medicals reported on 1st November.

Thanks for your reply.

Recently we got two returned records for completeness check: a 8/6 applicant received on 10/30 and a 8/13 applicant received on 10/25. Therefore, do you think they have almost finished completeness check for Aug. applications?

Two weeks tops.

Why won't he get refunded? As far as i know, the charged initial fee (CAD 550 per head) will still be refunded upon NER, its only then when file transferred to local VO and found short of points/documents and his file gets into rejection then he will not be refunded.


Nope, it would not be refunded.....

Dear Seniors,

I have a query regarding passport renewal date.

I am a June 18th applicant and received PER on October 17th. Visa office is London.

My passport is getting expired in November 2015. Do I need to renew my passport before getting MR request ? Can I renew it after MR request also. Kindly let me know your suggestions.

Thank you in advance.

I have also the same case; Can anybody help out when should i inform my VO regarding the passport change? By now, i have received PER and my ECAS status is 2nd line indicating "We have started processing your application"

Avoid breaking fd but if you need it for short term you can ask bank to open od against fd (roi is +2 ). Or if you want to break try to keep at least 80-85 % funds intact
