Hi Domingo,
I will be sending mine in 15 days time,just have to collect 4-5 documents .I have some queries,pls clarify:

1>What documents you have sent with your application?

2>I have Valid Academic IELTS which is xpiring on July-2009 as well as I have with me IELTS General which I took on 21st March-2009,in both modules my band is enough to fetch me maximum 16 points,now should I send both IELTS or I sould only send the IELTS General Module Score Card? sencodly do we have to attach the Original IELTS or Photocopy of it?

3>I will go to Govt. Office that handle Birth Certificate issues,actually on Original Birth Certificate my name and date of birth is not correct,I will ask officials to change it,now problem is that I didnt remember whether I have sent my Birth Certificate with my initial Application or not! should I send both ,the Original Birth Certificate and the ammended Birth Certificate with my application or should I attach only the ammended one?

4>Is there a way to know the Breakdown of points in Initial Assessment by NS Officials?

5>I have worked in two departments each for 6 months,now one head of department has given me the letter with duties but other one is not prepared to give me any letter like that,he is saying that he will provide details about me only on request and that he wont give me any letter with duties,what should I do in this scenario? although I have with me a letter signed by the Head of Hospital that I have worked in both Departments,what shoudl I do in this scenario? Also I dont have the copies of contract of my previous employment and no paystubs of previous employment(although Head of Hospital has mentioned in his letter head that I was being paid during my employment and I have worked in those two deprtments,pls guide me what to do in this scenario?

6>As far as my recent employment is concerned I have all the things with me,Contract,paystubs,duties etc. I have been working in my current employment since 6 months,would the details I provide of my current employment be enough? Officials at CHC might not look deep into my previous emloyment if I provide good details of my current employment?

Pls respond to these queries and as always I just wanna say that I really really luv u all,

Pls respond to these queries and as always I just wanna say that I really really luv u all,

1. There is a checklist for Islamabad visa Office. PM me your email, and I will send it to you.
2. For Immigration Purposes only send General IELTS (Original)
3. Update the birth certificate and have it notarized. Additionally you can also write a letter, explaining the corrections.
4. NS just checks for the occupation code if it is in the approved list of Job description. As per my understanding they do not award any points
5. Just write a letter and explain the situation. They will consider it. Word it politely
6. The experience is count on the basis of last 10 years. If you have gained that experience in last 10 years than you will get good points.

I hope this helps.

Thanks a ton for your quick reply,it really helped me a lot,my email id is imranali_2004us@yahoo.com .There are two more queries :

1>I have lived at two places in my life,both are in Karachi,for 18 years I have lived in Model Colony,Karachi and since I have left Model Colony, I have been living at my current address,now do I have to submit two Police Clearance Certificate or one would be enough from Current Address?

2>I am studying French at Allianced Francais,about to complete elementary level,will register for next level in May.This institute is run under French Embassy and a very well recognised Institute.Would the certificate I will get from this Institute be enough to proof BASIC Proficiency in French or not? I have read some cases in different forums that they have accepted these Certificates as far as you are claiming Basic Proficiency in French.Also on one occasion they have awarded 1 point to a person who sent these certificates and claimed basic proficiency rather awarding him the usual 2 points for basic proficiency in French.whats your opinio?

looking forward to your response...........

imranali_2004us,

1. AFAIK, you only need one PCC from one country.

2. I have also claimed basic proficiency in French after completing Level A2 from Alliance Française. Notarized copies of DELF A1 and A2 certificates have been included with my full application. However, I took this alternative only because the French points are not really mandatory for me to reach 67 points. IMO, They may come back to you asking for a TEF certificate or they may award you the basic points accepting the AF certificates. It all depends on the visa officer, really. If you have a strong case otherwise, go ahead and send the AF certificates only.

The full application package has been sent to the local visa office, and I'm waiting for their reply now. So, I'm yet to know the outcome of this.
