Hello there,
I appreciate if any expert out there could advise on the following matters, in regards to Federal Skilled Worker:
1. Am I right about that we do not need to fulfill any specific requirement from our country visa office?We just have to download the FSW application and do what is needed from there, as per required by the CIO, Sidney,Canada. Am I right?
2. Regarding the submission of documents, the check list state that we submit either originals or copies. Does copy mean a certified true copy/notorised or just a plain photocopy only? So far, I do not see any instructions that says I need to notorised/certified true copy all documents, unless original is required.I really need to get this right as it would help me to save more than $100 to do the notorised of all my documents.
3. I am so confuse about this too. I have a non-english document (original) which I had a translation done and a letter of affidavit from the translator. How do you go about in sending these documents to them? Is is correct to send a certified true copy of the original document and certified true copy of translated and certified true copy of affidavit? The only instruction that I found it that ""If your documents are not in English or French, send a notorised (certified) translation with a copy of the original version". Does the instruction mean just send one certified true copy/notorised of translated document and photocopy of the original document. Am I right??? How about the affidavit?
4. According to the instruction booklet, applicants must select and write the name of the visa office which serves
-your country of nationality OR
-the country in which you are residing, providing that you have been lawfully admitted to that country for at least one year.
Is visitor visa is considered as a legal admission? I have been into Canada for more than 1 year through my visitor visa. Since I am apply for FSW, can I put my Vancouver, BC as "Immigration Office Requested for processing this application"? For sure I shouldn't put CIO, Sidney!
Only answer these questions if you are very sure as I don't want to make any mistake in submission of my documents.
Thank you very much for your assistance. May you have a good day!
