You sent a skilled worker app. to Halifax? Shouldn't you have sent it to Sydney? If it's still travelling with DHL it may be in a DHL processing centre in Halifax right now but the address you sent it to is Sydney, right?

One of the members in this forum also had sent it to the wrong address when she applied and it did reach Sydney sometime later (not too long). I will find out from her whether it was halifax or not.

well, until you answer the question above, it is hard for us to help you.
From what you have written, it sounds like the wrong place.

The instructions for skilled worker say to send it to Sydney, see http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-how.asp#step5 and http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/EG76.asp

The address you should have used for a courier services on on that last link and it's:

Citizenship and Immigration Canada
Federal Skilled Worker
Centralized Intake Office
196 George Street
Sydney, NS
B1P 1J3
Canada

Sydney is not in Halifax, there are about 400km between them, see http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Halifax,+NS,+Canada&daddr=196+George+Street,+Sydney+NS&hl=en&geocode=FWQ_qQIdwvE1_A%3B&mra=ls&sll=45.39452,-61.89738&sspn=1.893927,4.938354&ie=UTF8&t=h&z=8

DHL probably just lists it as delivered to Halifax because it's been delivered to their processing centre in Halifax. You should call them and ask.

Hi

my application was also sent by DHL on 30th June received by them on 7th July in Halifax says the acknowledgement.

I presume Halifax is in Nova Scotia ??? pls enlighten us otherwise this is just one big unfortunate mess by DHL.

mary83 don't warry........u r in the right track. me & my friend also send our application by DHL to this address & both of us got The AOR within 6 weeks. It is mentioned here that we also follow the DHL tracking system & it showed delivered at HALIFAX. i think HALIFAX is in NOVA SCOTIA? senior will suggest better...its my experience.

The address quoted by creator of this thread is correct. Mine application was also delivered at Halifax and I got AOR within 1.5 month.
There is no need to worry. I think DHL delivered the mails addressed to CIO sydney,NS,Canada at Halifax.
So dont worry and just chill.

If seniors have contray to this pls reply.
