Hi Chloe, if your application is not at the indicated Visa Office which in your case is Manila, then it will definitely be at the CIO office in Nova Scotia and the CIO itself will process your application and issue your visa. I am in a similar situation like you where the CIO is going to process my visa directly.

I am originally from India, but I have been living in USA for the last 5 years. I got my CSQ in December 2013 and did my medicals in April 2014. Since April 2014, I have not heard anything from the CIO office. However, my lawyer confirmed that the CIO office will directly process my visa and not my Visa Office which in my case is New Delhi, India. It seems they process certain cases directly in the CIO office.

Hope that helps
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR RESPONSE, JOHANN!

Dear,

Hope everyone is enjoying the waiting game for a Big Dream. As it is shown in my timeline i applied in Nov 2013 and file opened in April 2014, received AOR in May 2014. We are Nursing couple from India and currently working in UAE. We applied from India and our Visa office is BIQ Hong Kong and the processing time is more than 40 months. But here in UAE the processing time is much less just 16 months !!! and they are conducting interview very frequently.

Now i wanted to know is it possible/good to move my file from BIQ Hong Kong to BIQ UAE??? Dear seniors please guide me and if you don't mind please explain me the pros and cons too.

Any inputs are highly appreciated. Thanks in advance

Please help me understand something here. I reside in Montreal and I have a validated job offer as well.

1. Will it also take me 6-7 months for getting Visa after CSQ? and..
2. How much faster is my file going to get processed to acquire CSQ since I have validated job offer.

Thanks

To validate a job offer means proving the company has done sufficient recruitment efforts to find a Canadian Citizen to fill that position but was unable to find it.

To validate a job offer, there are 3 main steps.

Step 01: Posting your job online

Your employer has to post your job opening online for 4 weeks. The job advertisement should contain certain important things like salary, job description, start date and other things etc etc.

Step 02: Detailed recruitment efforts(Most Important)

Your employer should then write a detailed report regarding the job position, the number of people applied and why they were not as good as you for this particular job. Your employer also have to attach the print outs of the online job postings.


Step 03: Filling up the job offer validation form and other supporting documents, along with the Fee

Link to the form and supporting documents is: http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/fr/employeurs/embaucher-permanent/demande/index.html

If you need more details, please inbox me and i'll be glad to help.

Have a good day.

I have been working here in UAE by the time i applied for Quebec immigration. So i don't think there is no need to change the address. Is it ?

Hi guys,

I have read different forum and what I have come up is : No medicals, ppr... issued for QSW applying outside canada since July 2014. I am wondering if there is a freeze in the application, because no matter the VO no medicals or nothing except AOR has been issued last two months..

It depends on how many hours do you want to put each day and what is your previous level of language. I believe 2000+ Hours are needed for it if you want to learn from start.

Hello Jimmy,

Are you a Nigerian? Can you please give me your contact phone number so that I can speak to you? I also applied for QSW with AOT of 16. Need to find out somethings about the applications as a whole.

Many thanks
Ola
