hi everyone! congrats to all the people with good news!!!

i just wanted your opinion on my case... i got aip on feb 14, got DM on feb 24th, but stil have not heard anything about landing date.. i called cic and because i live in vancouver, the backlog is about 3 months... but i'm just worried.... can anyone give me any info, or their input?

Hello! Please can someone explain me how should I do to request my FOSS notes by mail? Yesterday I sent a mail to this mail address atip-aiprp @ cic.gc.ca and they answered me today that I had to fill in the form 1543F.

And in this form it says I have to send it to Ottawa, I'm confused, and I don't know how much time it could take to get an answer.

I've already sent it by post canada yesterday, but I didn't use the priority mail so I won't be able to see when it will arrive. Maybe I should've done that. So now, I want to try to request it by email too, just to be sure, I think it's the fastest way to get an answer.
And I have one more question please, for those who have already received their FOSS notes. How many pages are in the FOSS notes, approximately?
And by calling CIC I will be able to see if my application to request FOSS notes has arrived ok?????


Thank you in advance!!!

I think you shouldn't worry you're done, it's just a matter of time to have your landing interview.
keep positive, I hope you will heard something soon.

Best wishes!

If the person sponsoring you changes jobs, do we need to inform them of this?

Yes, I called CIC this morning and the agent advised me to send new letter of hire asap. My husband is sponsoring me, and he changed his job recently. So will do it as soon as I have a letter from his new job!

Here is copy/paste from the e-mail I got from the agent after my call:
• a change of employer, etc. In your letter, please provide your client identification (ID) number and your full name and send it to the following address:

Case Processing Centre

6212- 55th Avenue

Vegreville, Alberta

That's so weird! Because I just checked the CIC site here and it says:

When should I contact CIC?

You must notify CIC of any changes in your application, such as:

changes in your personal circumstances such as a birth or adoption of a child, a marriage or a divorce,
change in contact information (email, mailing address, phone number),
appointment or change of immigration representative or designated individual, or,
decision to withdraw your application.

It doesn't say anything about when changing jobs...

... Changing job? I dont think the sponsor has to mention it at all, I dont recall telling, writing, publishing, anything about my job, with my social security number they can find in a blink if Im working, how much I make, my credit score, ...in fact, my social security card reveals whatever they want to know about my working whereabouts ..

It is weird indeed! As I just talked to an agent and she confirmed we need to send new information about his new job. I even have an e-mail saying to do so.

What is more, I remember enclosing his previous letter of hire, as it was on the check list at that time! It requested to say name of the employer, hourly wage, etc.

Wow, people, are getting so different info!

Here is the e-mail I got from the agent today:

Please do not reply to this email. Date: 2012-03-14

Maybe there are new laws, however, if this is the case... where or which forms, we "sponsors", need to fill so we can specify where do we work... the only form where I insert that information is in my passport application.. are you sure this is for Sponsors?..

My sponsor had to fill in his employment information on form IMM5481 "Sponsorship Evaluation"

But it does say on that form "Sponsors living in Quebec need not complete this form" - so that might be where the confusion is coming from.

I just came here to say APRIL 30 !!!!!!!!!!!! They are working a bit faster and it's so much better to actually see it's coming!!! Hopefully May will pass super fast too!!!

Right! Thank you for clarification!

 

[waitingitout]

Huh.... I just checked with my lawyer, and it seems we'd only need to inform CIC if we went on social assistance, and not for any other job change. (And, yeah, we did fill out the IMM5481 "Sponsorship Evaluation" form back when we completed our immigration application...) I wonder why Am_lina11 was told they needed to send in that update? There seems to be contradictory information out there!

hmmmm, I wonder. ???

Anyways, I will send the new letter of hire, just to calm my mind. I won't use expresspost, just regular mail. In case, they do not need it they will throw it away. You never know with CIC. I just don't want to get another request of information and that way prolong this long enough process. :
