MAY 2013 APPLICATION

[wessless]

Congrats to who got the MR!

I have a question that worries me. When I submitted the application, I didn't include the security clearance from my home country as it's really hard to get one since I have to justify it and include the request letter with it. Not to mention that my home country doesn't approve duel citizenships or any lead to that. I'm still trying to find ways to get one nonetheless. So, will be getting a letter from CIC about it or would CIC reject my application all together?!

I'm currently living in Canada and I've been here for 9 years continuously. I came here when I was 23 so according to the rules I still have to provide one.

Your advice to this matter is greatly appreciated.

You will have to provide the Police certificate. CIC won't reject your application but they will request the Police certificate. Try your best to get it asap since it seems CIC has started wo work on May applications. With regards to dual citizenship, you're only applying for PR not Canadian Citizenship, so I don't believe it should be an issue.

Hi gfromearth
Could you share your time line?

Hello Everyone,

I applied in Nov 2013 and I have a question. I am posting here as you might have gone through some of the stages and will be able to provide some insight. Here is the situation I am in:

As everyone will know, if we apply under CEC we have to agree to settle outside Quebec. I am an Intra company transferee and was transferred from India to my company in Toronto but my client is in Montreal. So i have been working here in Montreal all the time I have been in Canada and I am still working here in Montreal. My resident and mailing address with CIC is also Montreal address.

If questioned by CIC, I can tell them that since my base location is India, I have to leave my present job and my client location also in case if get the PR. And I am looking for jobs outside Quebec.

Can someone please let me know if this could be enough to convince them or if this could be a problem?
If yes, what would be the best way to handle this situation?

Thank you in advance.

Does your company has headquarters outside the province of Quebec?....

That can help alot....I have a friend in Quebec and he has also applied for cec bein based in Quebec....his headquarter is in ontario....and company can provide a letter stating ur needs...

Hope this helps

have you lived anywhere else than Montreal?
{No, Other than Montreal, I have lived in India but not in any other part of Canada}

Is it that the company posted you to Montreal, but anytime they can send you to another location as well?
{Yes, my company (from India) sent me to Montreal at client location. My company also have office in Toronto but not in Montreal. They can ask me to come back to India but will move me to Toronto only if there is a requirement which is very unlikely}

the hiring company is not located in Quebec. What are the chances your documents will indicate you work in Montreal?
{The hiring company (i.e. my employer) is based out in India and I was temporary transferred to their Toronto office. But i have been working at client location in Montreal and didn't need to go to Toronto office even once.
Yes, you are correct none of my employment letters talks about Montreal. It mentions that I was transferred from India to Toronto. But in Background form I had to enter the addresses where i have stayed and there i had to mention that I stayed in Montreal}

I would say you are good to go. Yur company has multiple locations. Today you are in Montreal but you do not know where you are going to be tomorrow.
It was not your choice to work in Montreal, the current project is there though.

To be on the safe side I would ask the manager what are the options to move to another location for the purpose of CEC.
{My manager wont help me to apply for PR as my home office is in India and they will obviously want me to come back rather than settling here}

And last one question, in the current circumstances, are you eligible for any Quebec immigration program while your employer isnt in Quebec? I think you are not so it means you are eligible for programs for non-quebeck residents.
{Not very sure if I am eligible for any Quebec immigration program but yes I don't have any employment document to prove that I worked in Montreal. Only thing is that I have been staying here for last year and a half and have given my Montreal address in application. That will mean that I was working in Montreal}

Thanks for your response byrwus

Thanks for replying Amit
My employer has office in India and Toronto but not in Montreal. In Montreal we our client. I am an employe of India based office and was transferred to Toronto office so that I can carry out my work at Client location in Montreal.

The letter from employer in India also states that I will be working at their Toronto office from the given period. My pay stubs also have address of their Toronto Office.

As i told in my last post, the only problem is that I had to mentioned my Montreal address in the Background form which asks about the places where I stayed in last 10 years I guess.

Please advise.

Hi everyone,
We were early May, but apparently, a decision has been made about our application. Does anyone have a suggestion where to look for future steps (assuming that the results are positive!)?
