Hello friends, i've been following this thread for a few months now. This has been really helpful. I need to ask a few questions.i hope someone will answer :). I applied for quebec in march and got an aor after 3 weeks. then I received a letter asking for the financial autonomy document which i had sent with my original application. However i sent it again along with a change of address notification. This was done on the 20th of April. I haven't heard anything from them. I don't know if change of address is a problem. Any input? BTW my biq is HK.
thanks.

@2future,

No if you have informed them about your change of address in writing then there is nothing to be worry about, next stage is either call for interview or letter to inform you that you are in interview waiting list.

My file number is almost 8 month old now and I am still waiting for a good news, and there are many others like in this forum who are desperately waiting for that miraculous day. so have patience and faith because next is our turn.
good luck.

Hello Friends,
Can you please help me?

I am unable to completely access my points.
Is the following assessment true?


1. Masters in Computer Science (completed Dec. 2008 in USA), Bachelors in Computer Engineering (2003) : 12 Points + 6 for Areas of training
2. Working as a System Engineer (Software) since March 2009 : 6 points (2+years)
3. Age : 31 : 16 points
4. Married
5. Spouse's Education: Bachelors in Business Studies (3 years completed in 2009) : 3 points + 2 for areas of training
6. Spouse's Work Experience : 3 Years but not in the same field as her degree
7. Spouse's age : 26 : 3 points

I haven't yet given TOEFL/IELTS but will it be sufficient to present a letter stating i have been working in an environment where English is the primary language?


Thanks for help.


We don't have children and we do not have French language proficiency.
I have been in the united states since august 2006. Do i have to give IELTS for English language proficiency?

I would appreciate if anyone can help.

Thanks!

That seems correct to me, dedb. I think if you get a letter saying all your work is in English it is unlikely you would also need the IELTS.

You should start taking French right away though - sign up for classes and when you send your application, send a letter from the school saying you are taking French.

Thank you! marylatt .

From my assessment i have 54 points (if i claim 6 for English). i believe i'll have to claim 6 points for french to qualify.
For a beginner how difficult a task to prove 6 points by signing up for classes and submitting the certificate later on.


Thanks again.

Could you tell the full form of BFD? No it is not possible to check the status of your CSQ but yes in federal part you can check the status of your case through their specific tracking site.

good luck

Thanks a million, once again. I received a letter asking for a missing document on the 14th of April and sent it on the 20th. Will this delay the processing further?
Thanks.

2future!

Normally yes this delays a little bit the process of getting the CSQ, that's why they are asking the applicants to send their complete documents when they are filling their application in order to avoid any delay.

But as I and other friends have been waiting for few months and still we are not called for interview then I think this delay will not be felt by you...so don't worry and keep the spirit high as it is right time to learn french and prepare ourselves for interview.

But if you are still not satisfied with this answer you can fill up their e-mail form by mentioning your file number and name, and send it to them by asking to confirm that they have received your missing document.

Use the link below to contact the BIQ HONGKONG through e-mail form.
good luck

Hi chibiks

My BIQ was in Damascus but due to the political problems there they transfered my file to montreal, I would like to know how fast is this office, how long it takes to send the first AOR?

thanks so much
