FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

[krasburn]

Just to give an opposing view, I've hired a Canadian Lawyer to help me with this process.

I thought that he helped me a lot. I still used the forum for several things and to understand the process better.

But he made me realize that Job Descriptions and Reference Letters were so important, and made me write them over and over again until they were very clear and complete. He also pushed me to find all the supporting documents possible.

I'm still a long while to get my PER, so I don't know how efficient he was. I even know a forumite that had a problem with him, so I know he is far from being perfect.

But his support made me much more confident in my Application.

I was trying to explain the same earlier today. I do not needed a consultant and also I encourage people to look into the forum before thinking on hiring one. But for some persons it might be impossible to do all the process by their own and a lawyer might be a good choice. BUT A GOOD CONSULTANT not a cheater that knows nothing....

Dear members
Today when I got an email from my VO, they asked me to submit all the missing documents and to pay RPRF, is that a good sign?
But they didn't ask for MD?

Asking for RPRF is always a good sign, so be glad.

MR e-mail is often separated from the other e-mails. It may take a day or two.

Experts , please advice

Hi everyone,

1) In my passport , only my surname is mentioned , whereas the First name/Given name is nothing, it is blank ... So ,while filing the forms , we need to fill as per the passport ... in my case ... What shall I enter in the Given Name blank ? NOT APPLICABLE or SHALL I LEAVE IT BLANK ?

2) There are certain questions in the forms , which you cannot fill if it doesn't apply to you for example the Question no. 3 , in the Generic form regarding Qubec certifcate ... If you select it NO , then the PDF reader prohibits you to attempt rest of the question parts related to this question, you cannot fill or you cannot enter NA ... So after printing , shall I write NA through a pen in such blanks or Shall I leave these kind of questions as it is ?

3) Is it compulsory to fill all the answer blanks and if it doesn't apply to you , then you MUST type NOT APPLICABLE or NA or N/A ?

 

[krasburn]

Hey everybody,

Since the thread is a bit boring today (except for those very select few that got CC or PER), here's some fun trivia about Canada:

1. People in Churchill leave their car doors unlocked in case their neighbours need to make a quick escape from polar bears.

4. For one day in 1943, Ottawa designated a hospital room to be “extraterritorial” (international) ground so a Dutch princess could be born a full Dutch citizen.
(A Dutch requirement for her to keep her princess title.)

5. And every year the Netherlands sends Canada thousands of tulips to show their gratitude.

13. Canada is the most educated country in the world.

20. The nation's official phone number is 1-800-O-Canada.

24. There is a strategic maple syrup reserve.

27. The Citizenship and Immigration Minister declared that Santa Claus is Canadian. (Before us! Has he passed all the tests we did? What was his IELTS??)
