Hi! I have question about interview waiver, If the couple applicant has total of 62 points with no french and adaptability points, is there any chance that the interview got waived.
Please share some experience, :-\

As long as you reach the minimum threshold points which is 62 for married applicant, there is a chance for the interview will be waived. Because the processi is based on points system.

Congrats! Mine took ~ 2 months and 1 week, so I guess it's not too bad.

I would like to know the new rule for Quebec immigration. i was told that French language was mandatory for Quebec immigration and that was withdrawn by the govt. Is that correct? I appreciate your reply on this


French language requirement was withdrawn by the government? Where did you get this info? So far, I believe that French language level of B2 is currently a must if you intend to get points for it.

i have applied under QSW program in march2013.After assessment i got 65 points .How much time it will take to get my file number or pr? are the rules are applicable on us or not?

Per Quebec's website, the AOR (where you would get your file number) should take 4-6 months; from there, who knows. :P Once you are successful in obtaining a CSQ, then and only then can you apply for an immigrant visa for permanent residence (PR). The waiting time varies per country and should be posted in CIC's website.

this is the link ..


Has anybody attended the session? Any insights, clarifications, news... please share! ;D
 
So I take it that because the CC has been charged that this means that they have all the paperwork necesary for studying our demand !?

We sure did send a hell of a lot of paperwork to them and being an English/French couple and of the same sex a hell of a lot of justifications and a letter explaining every little question they may have, even photographs and air tickets.


If they are going to reject an application is it more tha, likely before or after CC is charged?

even it is 1 points missing there is a chance that the interview will be waived?

I think if you are at least 57, and at most 62, they have to call you for an interview, by their rules, assuming you applied with spouse.

I have attended, but they transmit audio + video at 20 kbyte/sec, and it is so distorted, I can barely understand a word...
 
Please give me the link to it so that i can hear it and translate it .

thank you

It requires a login, which I can not give to anyone... :(

But the next session is not far away, maybe I will try again, I hope they will overcome their technical difficulties. I tried from Europe, and also from a US IP, both could only produce this 20-21 kbyte/sec transmit.

I already heard the whole recording and translating word for word would be cumbersome ::); However, essentially what he says is:
1. What really matters for them in terms of date is the reception date not AOR or accusse de reception. The counselor says that once your
application is received and physically opened at the BIQ, it is stamped and dated (even before collecting any money) and that rules will apply
based on that date.

2. Any application "received and stamped" before Dec 6, 2011 will be evaluated based on the older rules. (pre-obligatory language test).
All other application received after Dec 6, 2011 --excepting those application where Preliminary evaluation has been done-- are subject to the
new regulations. Those application where prelimary evaluation has been completed will be evaluated according to the rules in effect at the
moment of reception.

3. This is the contradictory part. He answers a question saying that if you have already received AOR then prelimary evaluation has been completed
; BUT in the next question he answers he says that prelimary evaluation is done after AOR. so he contradicts himself.

4. He states that language test cannot be send after you file the application. Once you sent your application, if you choose not to send your
language test you will get 0 points for that language. They will not wait for you to update your application. So, if you haven't received you
official score sheet wait until you do, otherwise you won't be getting those points.

5. As for the 20,000 limit. He states that according to his experience and based on the restrictive rules there is no way that they are going to meet
the limit, so you can send your application without fear.

So, IMO I'd say that all of us that send the application between Dec, 2011 and now are in the grinder. With the new regulations I basically lose about 5 points, which it's really unfair.

Hello Jazv,

Can you share us the recording for today's session ?

Thank you
