FSWP 2014 PINOY aspirants let's connect here

[blindvia]

Curious lang ako sa mga nag-apply sa FSW 2014 thru agency, application thru representative ba yung ginawa sa inyo ng agency nyo?

Napansin ko kasi nung nag-apply ako last year sa FSWP 2013 thru an agency inabot ako ng cap reached kaya binalik yung docs ko
sometime this year. I found out na HINDI pala application thru representative ang ginawa ng agency ko kaya do-it-yourself (DIY) na
lang ako this year since familiar na ako sa process at nag-update na lang ako ng mga docs.
Laking tulong ng forum na ito sa mga DIY applicants.

Baka nga dito din sa forum kumukuha ng info at nag-ttrack ng updates ang mga agency na yan kaya meron sila kumikitang kabuhayan
bukod dun sa interest sa pautang nila na pang-show money...

Hello ulit evetyone,

At dahil praning ako, ittanong ko na nmn, pasensya na.
Nbasa ko kasi sa page 127 from immanuela ung Steps ng CIC sa FSWP.
nkalagay dun na after Completeness check is Payment or CC Charging then Eligibility Review (PER o NER)
tpos pg hindi pmasa sa Check na un e irerefund.

So pd p din plng mka receive ng NER kht CC charged na.
Nkkatense, wala p aq email n nrereceive.

Kelan kya mamimigay ng PER pra sa May 5 applicants?
Sana this week na.

All the best mga Kababayan

hi dustin, from my understanding, ang CC charged doesn't mean an outright PER. yes, there is still a possibility of NER dahil ung nagtrigger ng CC charge is the "completeness" of your application package. next phase is to assess your eligibility which is when we will know kung positive nga ba or negative.

Phase: Completeness check

Citizenship and Immigration Canada reviews your application to make sure that:
•all required fields in your application forms are complete,
•all required documents are submitted from Document Checklist (IMM 5612), and
•the correct processing fee payment has been made

If your application is:
•incomplete or;
•the allowable cap limit has been reached,

your entire package (including your payment) will be returned to you with a letter explaining why it is being returned.

Phase: Eligibility Review

An officer at the CIO will make a final determination as to whether you meet all the eligibility criteria and your application is eligible for processing.

If your application is not eligible for processing, you will be sent a letter that:
•explains the reason(s) why your application is not eligible for processing, and
•confirms that a refund for the processing fee will be issued.

Based on what's stated above, I think this covers yung mga cap reached na situations. After nun, eto naman:

Phase: Selection and Admissibility

If your application is eligible for processing, your application will be assessed against the following requirements:
•minimum requirements
•selection factors
•sufficient funds
•admissibility (criminality, security, medical)

Note: 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.

Based sa unang nakakakuha ng PER, after 6 business days pa ung PER from date of CC charge. Since 5/29 ang charge mo, possible na sa 6/6 pa dadating yun. You can check the "Analytics" tab ng Pinoy SS for comparison ng waiting time.

Mukhang hindi registered sa ICCRC yung agency na 'yan kaya hindi sila nag-declare bilang representative. Caveat emptor na lang pag gumamit ng mga agency na ganyan. Doesn't mean to say they won't do the job for you, pero yun nga lang, hindi ka insured kung nagka-problema ka sa kanila.

To be honest, I dont think we will be hearing from Quebec in December or anytime this year at least. If you look at the pattern of applicant's progress since 2012, it takes more than a year to be scheduled for interview. If you are planning to apply in FSW, I think you should start now.

Sa totoo lang, hesitant ako mag apply sa FSW dahil tingin ko, mejo magugulo ang pag apply ko sa federal after CSQ grant. I love the process of compiling documents kaya ko lang ginagawa ito. Linilibang ko lang sarili ko while making a contingency plan if QSW feels so slow.

Also, Im pretty confident that 3011 wont wont fill up as fast as 3012 (probably wont reach CAP, who knows? ). I also believe that positive news will come 3rd or 4th quarter of 2014. Im basing my timeline with people who got interview waived.

^ yup no one knows... ;D
if your heart says to wait for QSW go for it...

Hi to all! Im not so new in this site but i consider myself as such since i didnt get to log in after Canada closed its immigration last 2012 wherein i almost sent my application. After 2 years, my hopes got renewed when i learned that Canada's doors reopened to the category i have been considering in applying for. I need help though..coz i am not sure if my IELTS will be considered "expired" if CIC gets my application by June 19th, 2014. I am thinking of submitting My IELTS TEST RESULT FORM which was dated JUNE 21, 2012.( although my test dates were june 6, 2012 for speaking and june 9, 2012 for writing, reading and listening. I am not sure if when CIC receives the package, its considered on that date and not when they opened and checked it? I know the rule : THE ENGLISH results should be less than two years old. But if CIC receives my package 2 days before it turns 2 yrs old, is it technically expired? I am anxious somehow coz well , we all are paying for the package ...and if my english exam is at default coz of the date, will i lose the payment fee?
Thank you..Cant sleep because of this ..haha...

Hi..

As per CIC site:
"Your language test results must not be more than two years old at the time that we receive your application at the CIO."

So, Depende Kung Kelan nila na receive ang package.. Hindi Kung Kelan nila binuksan...

My application has just been received by CIC today signed by GLEN. Hope I will make it to the cap and will be given a PER. God bless to all of us. The waiting game begins!

Ang kinakatakot ko kasi, once na mag pasa ako ng FSW 2014 application via courier, biglang dumating yung CSQ (Selection certificate) ko from QSW program. Although sabi naman nila mag withdraw lang ng application from federal before resubmitting another application for federal with CSQ. Tinignan ko sa website, sabi nila to withdraw an application, you have to call the VO that is assigned to you. Mukhang madali pero feeling ko sobrang tagal ng process na yan. Sana talaga magkaroon na ng balita na maganda sa QSW applicants this 3rd or 4th quarter.

Hello po mga kababayan...

I hope you can help me po on my query below...

I read an article that says you can submit multiple applications if you are qualified for more than 1 eligible occupation, to increase your chances of immigration acceptance

I am indeed qualified to apply for 2 occupations, but I need to know how to prepare the other application if I am submitting all my original documents with the other one. Do I prepare a letter saying the original document is in the other application and have a certified true copy attached?

Also, when it says "copies" in the document checklist, this literally means just photocopies of the document, right? and not "certified true copies?"

I would appreciate any advice you can give to this please, as I am doing the application on my own without any help from any agency.

Thank you very much.

Yes.. Pwede more than 1 application ang i-sesend mo. The prob LNG is, the IELTS result kasi alam ko 1 lang ang binibigay. If you can secure a 2nd original IELTS result, and original ECA result( although ECA naman, 2 originals ang binibigay)... Go ahead and submit another application with ALL the needed docs inside.. And payment, of course.

"Copies" mean yung photocopy lang na normal.. No need na IPA-certify unless stated. Or Kung Hindi English yung doc, ipapa-translate mo then ipapa notarized mo.

agree with blindvia. this forum has been very helpful for DIY applicants like me. kayang kaya naman pala kahit di dumaan sa agency.

correct. I also feel the same way that some agencies are searching on this forum

Hi... I have asked this before pero Medyo naguguluhan pa Rin ako kasi May nabasa ako sa CIC site na situation na mukhang swak sa akin and most of my fellow nurses na sa pinas kumuha ng degree.


CREDENTIAL ANALYSIS (WES)

1 Credential Authentication: Official transcripts were sent directly by the institution
Country: Philippines
Credential: Bachelor of Science
Year: 2008
Awarded by: (Name of school deleted)
Institution Status: Recognized
Admission requirements: Completion of ten years of primary and secondary education
Length of program: Four years
Major/Specialization: Nursing Assistant
Canadian Equivalency: Completion of secondary school education and Diploma (two years)

And I found this in the CIC website: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/EG7TOC.asp#eg72b
The following fictional examples will help you determine what you must submit with your application to the CIO in order to receive maximum points for your education:

If Fatima studied outside of Canada and obtained a foreign educational credential at the Bachelor's level, but her ECA report indicates that the foreign credential is only equivalent to two years of post-secondary study in Canada...
Then she would not meet the minimum education requirement and her application would be refused because her foreign educational credential was found not to be equivalent to a completed Canadian educational credential.

I believe many other nurses from pinas will have similar WES evaluation. So does that mean we will all be refused and application will be sent back to us?

So does my ECA report says, I have no chance and should not apply?

May nag sabi sa akin na ang WES ay para LNG daw ma determine ng CIC Kung ilang points ang ibinigay for education, pero base dun sa functional situation na binigay ng CIC sa website nila, mukhang Hindi LNG Lang points ang ECA.

Any nurses (other profession) out there na bachelor's degree per 2-years diploma or 2 -years post secondary education LNG ang binigay ng WES?

Better yet, yung may PER na or charged na ang CC or DD and same WES result and same NOC?

Any thoughts on this guys? Cgurado ako madami tayong similar ang situation kasi karamihan naman 14 years lang ang total education natin which is only 2 years post secondary lang ang Canadian equivalent.

Thanks!

Based on the above, I hope my understanding is correct

So completeness check muna (if complete all docs required, filled-out all fields required sa form, and cap limit was not reach yet) then CC charge/DD encash.

Then, eligibility review (if you have a continuous work experience of 1 year, your work experience matches your chosen NOC, if you scored at least 6.0 in any band in IELTS and if you have completed an educational credential and submitted an ECA report and yung six selection factors, sufficient funds and admissibility), then you will receive a PER. On the other hand, if failed sa eligibility review, then you will receive an NER.

Hello po mga kabayan help nmn po

I am in the midst of processing my employment reference letters and I have some concerns hoping can anyone in this group can provide me with some helpful advise...I badly need this urgently

1. My 1st employer was in 2004-2006 the company was sold I think 4-5years ago, I can print the reference letter in company letter head with the help of my ex boss before. The letter head shows the company's contact number & fax I doubt it can be contacted however the letter indicated my ex boss personal hand phone. I am so worried CIC will call the company number if they require further info. What do you think?

2. Is it necessary to put a date on the reference letter? If yes, given the above situation can I back dated the work reference letter?

3. Is it a must to put the NOC number in each reference letter?

4. My second job was very very short it's only for 3months as I am leaving my homeland soon and under agency. I don't have the pay slip nor my contract with me but I do have a certification of employment hence it doesn't show the total working hours, benefits, detailed duties & responsibilities. Can I just submit my employment certification? Or can I just ignore it as the 3months makes no diff with the points I will got h

5. My third company was liquidated last 2years ago but same thing with my 1st company I can get my ex boss to print & sign the reference letter in company's letter head. Can I just provide my ex boss' mobile number?

6. My current employer is okay except that my direct reporting manager was the Finance Director but she left the company. For 3-4months I am reporting directly to the CEO then we hired new Finance Manager. Usually our CEO/MD signed the reference letter and put the HR in charge as the contact person. In this scenario who shall I get to sign my letter? Actually my CEO has left the company last year and he is willing to sign the letter for me. Any insight please?

Appreciate you inputs & advice

Nakakatakot po kc super bagal ng processing ng mga documents ko then ung IELTS s aug p po nka sched sana po makalusot nmn po

Thanks & good luck to all of us!
