QUEBEC CSQ ONLY

[upchucks]

I applied for the Quebec Skilled Worker Certificate. I have an MBA so I applied under the "Business Management" field. My level of French is beginner at best.

They received my application on :12/22/09
AOR Dated: 01/22/10
I got it in the Mail on : 02/04/10

I was surprised that the AOR was in French even though I stated that my level of French is a 1 on my application. I plan to start French lessons at Allience de Francaise in a few weeks.

Lets keep this tread going to discuss all things associated with CSQ.

Is business management on of the "preferred field"? does thet mean thet more points will be awarded? or just faster processing???

Hi upchucks,

Our application was received on 21 Oct 2009. We have received our AOR 06 Dec 2009 but it was dated 05 Nov 2009 as there was a delay here in our post office.

We are in the same boat, my husband and me are under Business Management which is included in Preferred List of Training.

Amusa just got their CSQ last week.
They are also included in Preferred List of Training.

Good Luck to us!
Btw, where did you submit your application?

Hi All,
I will send my application next week. My wife is the principal applicant and she has done her MSc in Financial management while mine is MSc in radio systems engineering. I ve read the guide for immigration in Quebec and it mentions tht whoever get 16 to 12 points on the list of training area is considered for fast processing. But I think my wife is getting 6 points while me 0. I will be submitting to Hongkong BIQ.

I have not worked for almost 2 years now. Do u guys think I can write a letter to the immigration officer explaining why I have worked and also that I am intending to take some french courses soon?

upchucks, most of the documentation from BIQ HK is in French. I remember running to the 'Google translate' as soon as I received a communication from them And then finally when my French was good enough to read and comprehend a document, they started sending both French and English versions! My initial application was to Damascus BIQ in 2008, then they transferred the file to HK the same year. See the detailed timelines on the left.

Also, it's important to show them that you're putting in an effort to learn French. Alliance/DELF/DALF certification definitely helps. Good luck to all of you! Meet you in Quebec soon!

 

[upchucks]

I too used google to translate the letter. I am about to start taking French lessons in two weeks at Alliance de Francaise. I scored enough points without French but I want to make sure I learn the language.

My common law partner does not speak French, do you guys think that will be a problem???

What can I do to get an interview waiver?

Hi Everyone! I'm from United Arab Emirates and planning to apply for CSQ. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Business Management and my husband is on Computer Support.
I am planning to submit my application but still need to verify some info. I have been working for more than 10 years. Do I have submit all work certificates from all the companies I have worked for or just the last 5 years?

Hi all

I was wondering, assuming your file is ok, after the initial AOR do you get any other letter before the interview call? It's stated in the AOR that my file is waiting to be considered and that they will get in touch with me as soon as the preliminary examination is done. Would that be the interview call, request for additional documents or just a confirmation?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi Sheena,


Even I am applying for a CSQ in a short while.
Any update on the Interview. Another thing is that I wanted to inquire whether u and ur husband are scoring the usual 63 points on file or you would need points for adaptability.

Regards,
Ajit

Hi Upchucks,

Any update on the interview. I think you should get an Interview waiver provided they don't see anything fishy in your application.

Please let me know about the proceedings.
