I am international student in USA. I have applied for Canadian skilled based immigration in 2009 and I got file number in Oct. 2009. Then they informed about the case transfer to Buffalo, New York and I sent all documents over there. Then I got email on June 2010 by Immigration that my immigration process started and case is transferred to Los Angeles, Ca and they will decide whether I need interview or not and also if they need any additional documents. After some days I got email and they demanded IELTS, FBI & police certificate and also financial statement for funds and gave me 4 months for all this stuff. In last 4th month I sent all and they confirmed as received.
I have two questions:-
1. What should I expect or how much it can take more for their decision because I found information on website that it takes 8-12 months for Canadian immigration from USA.
2. Will they call for personal interview or it can be done without interview......?
3. During the process or before their decision, can I apply and get Canadian visitor or tourist visa? Because I have heard for some countries like USA, the person applied for one kind of visa and during the process person cannot apply for another kind of visa.
Thanx.
