I hope this helps

Friends,

For FBI clearance, where can we get the fingerprinting done? I went to my local police dept, and they said that they dont do fingerprinting anymore for FBI clearance. Anyone else in the same situation?

Hi everyone! I just wanted to check up on you all and see if anyone has heard anything regarding your files. No news for me since January since my AOR but I'm trying to keep patient. :)

Wowwwww... I was expecting to get an interview and CSQ 1 year after I mailed my application, but I guess it makes sense that it would happen 1 year after AOR which would be January-ish 2012 for me!

Hello everyone,

This is my first post. I sent my application to the Montreal Office on July 7, 2011, and would like to share my experience with everyone. So far I don't have much to say but I will be back with updates each time I hear from the immigration office.

In the meantime, can everyone tell us about the shortest processing time they have heard of? I think that would help a lot of us :).

Thank y'all.

Hello Speednab,

I think our profiles our quite similar. I have just completed an MBA in the US and I am fluent in French.
I am a little bit surprised that it's taking you more than a year to get through the whole process. I was hoping I could be done within 4 to 6 months, but now that I have read a couple of your posts, I think I need to trim my expectations down a bit.

Can anyone tell us what makes an application go faster/slower other than the workload at the immigration office? I've read some posts talking about priority applications.. can anyone tell us what priority application means?

Thank you very much.

Cheers,

I applied for CSQ in November 2010 and my application was returned to me in february 2011 because the payment that made was not conform. I sent it back in february and I receive my Aor in March 2011 since then I havent heard anything from MICC montreal. I called them in May 2011 to see the status of my application, they told me that they processing June 2010 application.
Now, I dont know how long it take to get CSQ?
