I read about it in their official document and I know one person, who got priority and her AOR had such wording. Moreover, she got processed in a matter of months...
I had the same question some months ago, whether if you are on priority list that would be mentioned in the AOR and another forum member, Ivegen who had the same AOT and got CSQ a few months after applying said his AOR did not say anything about priority. He has US degree and has either B1 or B2 French.

The Ukrainian guy supplied TEFAQ result though. I didn't know he already received his CSQ, so good for him.

The wording in AOR should happen, if it didn't happen the best indication is the waiting time. If it's been almost a year I doubt you're a priority.

Good morning friends

As per the discussion going on currently in our forum I think there are very less chance for Asia for the next mission because till date no one has mentioned that he got an email from biq Montreal for the interview like some african members.

pls share if someone has any update

I am in that position as well. AOT points changed from 12 to 6. We did not submit any French results and were scoring 70 points, now we are down to 64. Our area was priority also (chemistry). We have been attending french classes and intend to submit french results although we are not claiming points, we were hoping to have an interview waiver and was trying to increase that likelihood by showing MICC that we are learning French.
Hey Geochaddy,

I think you still stand a v..good chance of interview waiver as 64 points are cool. Is it without the adaptability points or including it?

They will update their mission once in every 3 months
http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/publications/en/divers/Programmation-missions-travailleurs-lieu-en.pdf

last updation was 26th June and before that they had updated on 25th March.. hence we can assume that they may update again on September 25/26th..

Geochaddy,

How's everything with your application? How do you feel with french learning? I figured that passing a Tefaq doesn't mean much in terms of fluency ;D I went to Alliance Francaise for intermediate level recently and have some difficulties like all the others as well. What I mean is that it's better to take a test once you feel confident even with a modest level just to get points needed. And afterwards, you continue learning just for yourself. That's a good point.

I wrote couple times, probably in different threads, that there's no mentioning of priority in the AOR. And also, the key factor in obtaining a CSQ is a license from the professional order. I bet many applicants have MS/Phd in the prioritised AOT, advanced english and B1/B2 in french. Therefore 55+ points. That doesn't automatically mean a waiver. I got an eligibility letter from L'Ordre des Chimistes du Quebec in May. After I updated my CSQ application with it I receved a letter with a title "Application is pending decosion". It happened just in one month. That how I knew I'll receive a CSQ. Before that I wasn't quite sure that my 58 points would grant me a waiver. Again, I think that the most important is a license even though it doesn't give any additional points. Many applicants underestimate it and just count the points but I think that it's not right. What's a purpose of the degree that isn't recognized. I read couple threads on the website of professional Order where applicants don't know what to do with their degrees obtained overseas. Unfortunately, for those who evaluate credentials there're two outcomes: either it's a degree from North America or from elswhere. For immigration officer the license demonstrates your employability and shows that you don't need any further training. Thus, can start working immediately upon arrival. That's one advantage for those who want to work in a regulated profession.

hey. congrats!

What about professions, which are not regulated?

If you got the AOR before filing eligibility letter from the Order, that's probably why it did not mention priority.

Btw. here is the list of professions governed by a professional order:
http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/employment/regulated-professions/professional-order.html

And here financial market authority
http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/employment/regulated-professions/financial-market-authority.html

And here regulated vocational qualifications

Thanks proreo. I wish yours gets processed as fast as mine.

I got AOR already having 58 points and I'm sure that when they say "priority" they imply only AOT and nothing else. Even points they may not have counted at that stage. Also, when I had a second notification that the application is pending there was no mentioning about priority as well. Only when I received CSQ it was specified "Dossier vise par traitement prioritaire"

My opinion is that regulated professions are kinda double-edge swords. There're pros and cons. Very straightforward. On one hand, if someone qualifies it's beneficial, but if he doesn't that means he will have to take a survival job and study again in Quebec taking part-time courses to prove the qualification. I'm sure they created these licenses to narrow down the pool of applicants in order to decrease the competition in key professions that are important. In case of non-regulated profession, the good things are that you don't bother with documents, appication and fees, and you're not worried that it might be refused and degree may not be recognised. However, in this case the competition will be much higher because it means that without a need to obtain a license lots of applicants from all around the world will qualify for the same job. It makes searching the right position more difficult.

Hello Jevgen,congratulations on your CSQ.Looking at your timeline,your CSQ came at the speed of light.I wish to have such a commendable speed in the processing of my application too.The professional order eligibility you are talking about for regulated professions,is it from regulatory bodies within Quebec or are the licenses (eligibility) from abroad (outside Quebec) considered?
