QUEBEC APPLICANTS LETS SHARE EXPERIENCE

[freddy83]

Thanx for the reply egrace,

I'm gonna tell my current employer that it is to get a bank loan. So in it I can ask them to include my designation, my salary and how long I've been working there, but does it also need to contain my duties? I also have the pay slips but they are just computer printouts, will they be legitimate?

And I'll keep your advice on mind for the previous employer.

Thanks again

Thanx for the reply egrace,

I'm gonna tell my current employer that it is to get a bank loan i just hope a line in the letter will not read: pls kindly assist him with the loan . So in it I can ask them to include my designation, my salary and how long I've been working there, but does it also need to contain my duties? I also have the pay slips but they are just computer printouts, will they be legitimate?Notaring a photocopyis what makes a copy to be legal/legitimste. it is not in the quality of its design. mine was even in soft copy and i hd to print same and i notarized them b4 submitting

And I'll keep your advice on mind for the previous employer.

And will i get call for an interview if i show a certificate from dawson college that i did level 1 french? wheter or not u will be called for interview depends first of all on whether u av the required point for an interview waiver or not b4 the issue of french attestaion comes in. but clearly, ur showing a french result from dalson does not mean u will be authomatically waived. ur stay in quebec will only ftech u additional point

Hi ,
Thanks for your prompt response. According to the Quebec 2009 List of preferred areas of training (www(dot)immigration-quebec(dot)gouv(dot)qc(dot)ca/publications/en/diverses/summary-table-areas(dot)pdf , if your degree is Computer Science (Bach. - 3 years) and equivalent to Quebec degree then you get priority treatment. I am wondering if my masters program in Computer Science (which i have completed from Quebec within the last 5 years) falls into the same category.

Thanks.

Hi Respect,
i am at the same situation as yours. only difference is that I am staying in Montreal from the past 18 months only and not studied here.. I applied for CSQ in Nov 2010 and got it with in 5 months. Even though I do not know french I was called for interview for few queries. after 40 min interview with me my wife she granted the CSQ and said it is priority processing. Even the CSQ got the sentence "Priority Processing". I thought it would be processed on a priority basis...But it is Big No. once you apply for federal you have no control. its been more than 5 months...and my status stays at "application received".
to get a CSQ with in less time, i suggest you go in person to submit the application and also if possible get a letter from your current employer that they will continue to keep you in job once you get a PR. these will get you more weight-age while CSQ processing.


good luck
Syed

@ Respect,
thanks true computer science obtained in Quebec earns priority only those from outside quebec get 6points without priority

Thanks everyone for clearing that out. I was confused since the list only mentions 3-years bachelor degree in computer science and nothing about masters degree in computer science.. i was guessing if they treat bachelors degree as priority they should treat masters degree the same way. good to know anyways.
