I am glad to know that one of you got through to the interview. However, I saw that someone had compiled in a date order all those who received LOA; my question is, given that the MPNP takes approximately 6 months for the actual nomination. I submitted my documents 15 nov 2011 and got the Letter confirming receipt of it 1 march, does that mean that they start to count from 1 march 2012 or would they acknowledge the fact that I submitted my papers on 15 nov 2011 and count the 6 months waiting period thereafter.
 
I am moving to Manitoba next month, anyone please help or guide how/where to find house/apt particularly in Winnipeg?

Thanks in advance

Hello :)

I am also quite worried about my submitted IELTS Academic module instead of General module that they are requiring. I am just holding on to the email of MPNP as their response to my query that it is fine but that was before I submitted my application last February 17, 2012 and before the IELTS General module became a requirement.

I asked people on forum about it and they said that MPNP is only requiring General module since it is easier to get the required score. They also said that Academic module is more comprehensive and for professionals like nurses, etc., so it will be okay.

I am really hoping that when I get my AOR, my application will be considered complete and no other documents will be requested especially the IELTS General Module.

Dear ,

IELTS is not mandatory requirement of MPNP. So submitting IELTS result is always a plus.

So don't worry.

Dear,

Well 6 months timeframe was true when AOR use to come in 40 days but now AOR itself takes 4 months so for LOA expected timeframe is about 9-10 months.

It is now a requirement for lower skilled workers.

EXCERPTS FROM MPNP ANNOUNCEMENT:

Effective immediately, lower skilled workers must include in their provincial nominee application test results demonstrating proficiency in English or French.

NOC C and D occupations include semi-skilled and low-skilled workers in the trades, primary and manufacturing industries, sales and services, as well as certain clerical and assistant categories.
Level C jobs usually require only secondary school and/or occupation-specific training.
Level D jobs usually require only on-the-job training.

You must score at least the numerical value listed for each category (listening, speaking, reading, writing). No other evidence of language proficiency will be accepted.
International English Language Testing System (IELTS) General Training
Listening: 4.5 | Reading: 3.5 | Writing: 4 | Speaking: 4
Canadian English Language Proficiency Index Program (CELPIP-General)
Listening: 2H | Reading: 2H | Writing : 2H | Speaking : 2H
Test d’Évaluation de Français
la compréhension de l’oral : 145 | la compréhension de l’écrit : 121 | l’expression écrite : 181 | l’expression orale : 181

Concerning all applicants:
All MPNP applicants are encouraged to submit test results demonstrating their English or French proficiency regardless of their assessed occupation.

Language is a key determinant in the successful labour market and community integration of New Manitobans. All MPNP applications are assessed based on how well your documentation demonstrates that you satisfy program criteria.
 
Thanks for pointing it out I missed that.

It was always preferred to do IELTS and include its result with application good now they have made it mandatory and with such low band requirement which I personally think any person wanting to settle down in Canada should be able to get.

For the IELTS requirement, this applies for new applicants (low skilled worker) only, right? but how about those who have applied already and waiting for AOR like us. Does this apply?

And is this for PA (principal applicant) only excluding dependents, like spouse?

Hi,

It's only applicable for principal applicant. My cousin had inquired in Canadian Embassy in Philippines about IELTS and they confirmed that only PA should take the exam. She's still preparing all her docs and waiting for her IELTS before applying online.

Cheers.
 
Hi All,

I have joined the forum today. I have been nominated by MPNP and my application is under process at CIC.

My details are as under :

1. Application received by CIO, Sydney, Nova Scotia on 10.01.2012.

2. Visa Office : Abu Dhabi.

3. Got the mail from CIO on 02.02.2012
(This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada under the Provincial Nominee Program. (Upon review of the information you have provided, your application is considered complete based upon the requirements of the Instructions and Regulation 10 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA).

Your application will be forwarded to a visa office for further processing.)


On checking the application at CIC website I found " We received your application for permanent residence on January 10, 2012. "
Please enlighten me on the following :

When I am likely to receive my MR from ADVO?

Is there any other procedure left before MR to be received?

Should I make a call to the ADVO for checking the status of my application?

Thanks for your time friends.

Appreciate your early advises.
