Quebec Skilled Worker Federal Stage (After CSQ)

[David83]

Hi David,
Good to see your timeline.....was just glancing through it. it took you exactly 12 months for Federal app to landing. What a perfect and desirable timing.
Can you share a few things?
Where did you apply from and what is your VO?
How was your landing experience in Quebec?
Were you asked Proof of funds and in what form?

Thanks for answering. I am still waiting for MR over 5 months now!

Cheers and God Bless

Hi

1- I applied from within Canada and my VISA office was Sydney until the last month where I received the passport request from Ottawa.
2- I landed in the IRCC office in Montreal. It was basically collecting documents and photos for the card with few questions.
3- No proof of funds was asked for me, but I'm not sure if this will be the case if you come from outside Canada.

Hope this helps and good luck

thank you for sharing!
I have a particular question concerning the request for new photos.
I read from the CIC website (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/perm/express/final.asp) that Request for Photos will come with the Passport request letter, and we need to send hard copy of new photos to CIC.
I am from visa-exempt country and applied from within Canada. I believe they will not ask me to send my passport, but to upload the biometric pages electronically. But, should I expect to receive request of photos at that time?
I am very pleased that they will ask for new photos for the PR card, as I don't like those I submitted alongside my application (I took them at pharmacy in winter... my tuque ruined my hair and i really did not want to look at those photos again. I want myself to look good on the PR card *shy*)

Actually, when they request the passport, they ask for 2 photos, and they put one on one copy of the confirmation of PR which will be taken on landing, but they will ask for another two photos later for the card when you do landing.

I believe they will ask you to send hard copy photos even if you are from a visa exempted country.

Hope this helps

If you speak french, pretty much anywhere. Quebec City has a great job market. If you're only comfortable in English, Montreal is probably your best bet and only real choice beyond the Ottawa area right on the border of Ontario.

Thank you,

do we have to add schooling details also followed by highschool, is it mandatory for MON Projet

and for MBA (distance) from sikkim manipal is it considered for quebec

thank you

So basically, if you're from a Visa Exempt country, you can send the scanned passport biodata pages and photos electronically? (like via email) and then physically bring 2 more hard copy photos when you go to land which they will use for PR cards? So no need to mail anything physically?

Is this correct?

Hello All -

I applied through MON project and received document checklist from MIDI few days back. I am from India and currently working in USA.

Appreciate if someone can answer below questions.

Q1. I do not have birth certificate from my Home Country's ( India) Civic Hospital / Municipality. My entire life I have used Passport and my High School Mark sheet as proof of Date of Birth. Is their any alternative for me besides getting certificate from Indian Civic Hospital/Municipality? I checked on New York - USA consulate website and they only provide a letter that just says that DOB as per Passport is XX-YY-ZZZZ. Most of the times this letter is useless.




Q2. My Bachelors degree ( plus few other documents) have text in Hindi ( One of the Indian languages) and as per MIDI , I need to get every document with non-English and non-French text translated. So far I have been unable to find a recognized translator in USA tri-state area that can translate documents from Hindi to English. Any suggestions?

Q3. How are you guys preparing "Certified True Copy" of Educational Documents. As per MIDI , only following can certify educational documents:
a) Document Issuer - My Indian University is very hard to reach out to.
b) Notary from India - Notary from India are available only in India and I am in USA.
c) Indian Consulate - Indian consulate in NY won't certify documents issued in India.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Q1. It is a challenging part. I did have the same issue. Thus, I filed a case in district court to prove my birth date and request to order municipal office to issue birth certificate based on my passport and high school document. It is fairly simple process. Then used the court order to apply for it. By the way, quebe shows strict concern in documents. Thus, try to give exactly what they asked you.

Q2. All my academic certs are in English and my state language. As long as the same information is in both English and your state language then do not have to translate. If not, access indian embassy for translation service. I belive Indian embassy has people who speaks Hindi.

Q3. For academic certs attestation, I sent all my docs to my relative in India via DHL and he helped me to get notary as the way quebec wants and returned it to me. It is also a simple job. As long as notary public able to see your original document he/she will authenticate your docs.

Hope it helps

It's better to wait and see what they will say in your case, but my understanding is that hard copy photos are required in the passport request letter (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/perm/express/final.asp):

The ‘Passport Request’ letter, therefore, includes a request for hard copy photos. Applicants are instructed to mail these photos to CIC

Oh ok so basically you had to send in 2 hard copy photos, THEN bring 2 more hard copy photos with you while landing and give them in person?

Hello Guys,
Just wondering if someone has any status update recently...

my situation is, I did my medical on March 2016, got the med received status in the cic account after 4 weeks, paid the RPRF 7weeks back, still no update.
waiting for the passport request. is it normal? coz, I feel that its taking a bit longer time for me.
Btw, I changed my address (online) and status (student > work permit and student > full-time job) in Canada by emailing my papers to CPC-CTD-Ottawa[at]cic.gc.ca. is it something that is taking a longer time?

Moreover, I changed my address through the cic portal, but its almost 15 business days gone and the profile is still showing my old address.

Any information and suggestions are highly appreciated and thanks in advance for that.
Cheers!
