QUEBEC APPLICANTS LETS SHARE EXPERIENCE

[chibiks]

hey, i currently live and work in ontario. I applied for PR, when they request my passport, I want to go to buffalo to give my passport for the PR visa and then "land" when I am returning to Ontario. Will this be a problem since I am a Quebec nominee? The intent is after my current work contract expires, then I move to Quebec... Any thoughts?

Standard AOR receipt time from buffalo is 5-7 months. I have code 130 priority treatment csq. will this shorten my aor receipt time?

I do not think the shorten the aor time. code is also 130 and it has been already 8 months. I have not received any AOR from Buffalo. my statsu online shows that they recevied my application on May 2nd 2010....
when I contacted them they said it takes 30 weeks to open a file. ...

@syed_h_sha
are you in canada? my guess is not. i think you are right that code 130 does not mean much. But here is my speculation. Applicants who have never entered canada or live in certain countries face higher processing times or have lived in many countries or have a family as there are lots of checks and procesing to do. But applicants who for example gained admision in canada as students have already have background checks done and background info is easy to gt from certain countries too.

One more thing, send a fax saying you are really needed in quebec and ask if they can do anything to hasten up quoting code 130.

Hope this helps...

I am already in Canada and that too in Montreal Quebec. and I am with my family. What every you said may be correct, but not for all cases. I see people who applied from India got with in 8 months of time. I guess all depends on the application and category you applied.

My visa office is Buffalo. they clearly said they take 30 weeks to send acknowledgement. it is the busy visa office. Quebec immigration mentioned on my CSQ that this is priority processing" . I hope by Jan or Feb I should be hearing something from Buffalo.

Hi Syed,

On your CSQ, on point 19, does it mention only "traitement prioritaire" or does it also mention why it's a "traitement prioritaire" - for example "traitement prioritaire - domaine de formation" ?

No, I only have code 130. while submitting for CSQ, i submitted with Federal application. On the federal application they stamped the date when I applied for CSQ and mentioned priority processing. I am not sure what that means..

Hi mkshah, i cannot reply to your message, still not allowed for PM.

To answer your questions, please see below:

Also tell me total how many years of studies you did for your Bachelors of Science in Office Administration? - 4 years
A. How many years in your degree studies? - 14years from primary till degree
Is this the same as Bachelors of Science in Secretarial in Administration? Yes

Regarding Bachelors of Science in Secretarial in Administration, pls see, there is a note at the bottom of page 1 in the link I provided.
It goes like this:
The evaluation of the 'Bachelor' of 4 years is Three years of technical collegiate studies - Diploma of collegiate studies - does this means that the below bachelors are not qualified.
Bachelor of Science in Aircraft Technology, in Food Technology, in Industrial Technology, in Marine Transportation, in Medical Technology, in Radiologic Technology, in Nursing, in Secretarial Administration.

2) Age – 36 14 points

3) Work Exp - 15years (as legal secretary, Executive Secretary (office administrator) 8 points

4) Language - IELTS (will take)
French - will be enrolling to claim points
Along with your application, if you are not submitting any results for French & / or English Proficiency then you will not get any points for it.
5) 2 kids (10year old & 8month old) total 8 points for 2 kids below 12 years
6) No relative in Quebec
7) Funds no problem 1 point

My spouse details are as follows,
1) Age – 39 2 points
2) Qualification - Secondary Graduate – 1992 - 10 years

3) French - will be enrolling to claim points Along with your application, if you are not submitting any results for French & / or English Proficiency, then you will not get any points for it.

My job descriptions is more on NOC 1221. Also, my graduate course is not on the List for the Area of Trainings, how can I claim points to that?

Thanks a lot!

Hi EveryOne,

Does anyone has old rules, applicable to applications filed before Dec 06, as I am not sure about few points
1. As my application was recieved on 05-Sep-2011 and I was 35 Years and 3 Months old on that date will i get 16 Points or 14 Points for age?
2. My IELTS score was Speeking 6.5 and Listening 8.5 how much will I get for English?
3. I should be able to pass DELF A1 By FEB but It may not be with 16 Points in Speaking or Listening in such situation how much point should I get?

Hope to get some great reply from great Forum participants.
