need suggestion for visa office selection

[blocks28]

i'm associate project manager and having 9 year work experience....

I'm in USA from last 3 years and i'm planning to apply for canada PR by august end. Which office should i choose buffalo or new delhi considering I may and may not go back to india in december. I have 90% chances that I will move back to delhi by december.

thanks for clarifying the doubt about my first question.

Re: help in finding code

project manager in construction? probably not.

You should look at the hrsdc website and figure it out. it would depend on your duties as a project manager.

One of these: http://www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC/English/NOC/2006/QuickSearch.aspx?val65=project+manager

If in IT, then 0213 but click on it and see if the job duties match yours as well.

i have also applied from Buffalo though i will also be going back to india in december. i have heard that applying from US , processing is faster than from new delhi.you will get the PR between 6 and 12 months.

Even, i have the same question buffalo or new delhi ? I will be staying in US till 2011 but have heard that buffalo is way too slow than New delhi .. dont know what to do!

 

[rupeshhari]

i think if u apply now, you'd get it before 12months are over. of course, i am guessing.

Guys with closed eyes apply to New Delhi office and forget about Buffalo

Have a look at this case, the entire processing time took only 3 months and some days exactly (116 day) from the beginning to the end.

This is his case at trackitt.com :

This is some quotes from his case in this forum from the following link :

Dear Friends,

Today I received my AOR from New Delhi CIC office ( applied under new rules on Feb, 2009) along with that I have been give 45 days to submit following:
1. Right of Permanent fee
2. Medicals
3. Complete attached travel form for both me and my spouse
4. Passports.

For 4th point they have written: request for your passport at this time is not a guarantee of visa issuance.

Friends,

I applied on 9th Feb 2009 in Category1 (FSW), Actually I applied on 4th Jan 2009 but due to insufficient fees they returned my application back. on 9th Feb. I created DD for the rest amount and sent back the docs on same day.
Recieved AOR on 14th March sent by CIC Sydney
Submitted all supporting docs to CIC New Delhi. on 21st March.
Today received AOR + medical request + landing fee + travel forms all in one request

I was eagerly waiting for my AOR for last 40 days but it is my good luck that I received everything in one go. I am confident that everyone who have applied under new rules will get same response. Good luck to all of you.

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.

THANKS GOD.

WE HAVE JUST RECEIVED OUR PASSPORTSSSSSS STAMPPED................

SO HAPPY................................

I am very glad to see alot many members were asked to submit ppt. Now everyone can see the results and can easily speculate how fast the new system is. My case didnt even take 4 months. In 3 months and some days I received my visa. This is what I think is even faster than applying for work permit.

Wishing all of you good luck in your visa process.

What office have u decided ... i am going to send my initial appliction to NS. My lawyer is asking me to choose an option between buffalo or New delhi . I think AEO cases r faster in New delhi .. but i dought that since i m living in US ... will they process my file in New Delhi.

My husband lives in india though. and my permanent mailing address would be india as well.

Please suggest.

 

[rupeshhari]

if you are indian citizen then you can choose delhi.

 

[Simon123]

yes i m an indian citizen ... i will choose ND office however, the issue will arise when i have to send passport ( like they demand before visa nowdays). Will have to travell to ND or post the passports . I m confused like hell

I'm planning to apply in delhi as we are going back to india in december so it will be easy for us. Thanks all for your suggestions.
