Quebec CSQ Applicants in the USA

[speednab]

Good for you Bihari.

It seems getting too long to get the QCS. I got last week a letter requesting more documents in order to waive the interview, although I already filed them in the initial application. I did send them the second day.
Best wishes!

Well Congrats Speednab. If you don't mind could you please share what kind of documents they requested and what is your french proficiency level and your education/preferred skill background.
Also could you also please share your timeline of AORs. It'll give me idea about how much time it will take for me.

Thanks once again.

Best,
Harsha

Hello friends,

After CSQ nominates a candidate and we send our application to Buffalo, do we have to send police clearance certificates with the application or will CIC ask for them later (like medicals)?

 

[speednab]

You have to send it with the application.

Thanks speed.

Friends,
Is there a link where we can find how to apply for state pcc? The only link I found on cic is (cic.gc.ca/english/information/security/police-cert/north-america/united-states.asp) for fbi, not state pcc

Also, do we need to submit state pcc if we have lived in the state for 3 months or less? or between 3-6 months?

 

[speednab]

Welcome.
That's the link to follow
You need to apply for PCC if you have been in the sate more than 6 months

Hi everyone - I was hoping we could revisit how severe the backlog is for Quebec as it pertains to outland U.S. applicants....I know there was talk a few posts back about it being the slowest province, so I wanted to check if this is still true. I know there is that page from Immigration Quebec titled "Processing Times (table)" (I wasn't allowed to post a link) but for the life of me I can't make any sense of it. Does anyone have any good information on whether Quebec is currently working on really old applications? Thanks all.

Hey guys,

I'm still waiting for an interview date for CSQ. I sent my application on July 15, 2010.

Hopefully I'll be called for my interview on July or August.

So after I get (hopefully) my CSQ what are the current waiting times to have an applicaton processed through Buffalo?

Thanks!
PS: Any idea how much longer just to get an interview? It's been almost 11 months just to get one.

- Interview or CSQ: Minimum 1 year if your file is complete
- Federal Part: 80% of the applicant get it done in 14 months if your file is complete

Hi Speednab,

I have received my first AOR for CSQ, still waiting for interview date or CSQ itself.

I have a question for you: I also qualify for the federal skilled worker category and was thinking of applying that as a backup in July 2011 when the new session starts. Do you think that could create a problem for my CSQ process? Do the 2 systems talk to each other?

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks
Harsha
