Amendments to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations (the IRP Regulations) effective from December 1, 2003, permit applications made before January 1, 2002, in the federal economic categories (skilled workers, assisted relatives, investors, entrepreneurs, and self-employed workers, but excluding provincial nominees and applicants destined to the Province of Quebec) to be assessed under the selection criteria of either the Immigration Regulations, 1978 or of the IRP Regulations.
The Immigration Section of the Canadian High Commission in New Delhi provides interpretation services for Hindi and Punjabi only. Economic class applicants who require an interpreter for another language must engage the services of a qualified professional interpreter from an approved list of interpretation companies. This approved list of interpretation companies is attached to this letter. Should the applicant come to interview without one of these interpreters, the interview will be rescheduled, leading to processing delays. Interpreters other than from the firms on the approved list will not be accepted.
Please note that the figures quoted by the interpretation companies are not negotiable. Further, the companies have no connection to the High Commission and cannot assist you in any way to improve your chances of obtaining a visa. Should you attempt to negotiate on either on these items, we have instructed the companies to refuse to take you as a client. Thirdly, the companies should be contacted during business hours only. Should you call at any other time, the companies will refuse to take your calls.
