Re: FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

Guys one quick question
As Canadian PR's have certain residency obligations like they will have to stay for 2 out of 5 years in Canada. Does working for canadian consulate in delhi or anywhere in India count towards it??Like one is working for Canadian firm.

Or one should be recruited in Canada and then transferred to India's office??

For days you are outside Canada to count towards your Residency Obligation of 730 days (2 years) out of 5 years there are several options. The option that fits your question is as follows:

OPTION 2. Employment outside Canada

You may count each day you were employed outside Canada if your employment meets the following requirements:

•you are an employee of, or under contract to, a Canadian business or the public service of Canada or of a province or territory and
•as a term of your employment or contract, you are assigned on a full-time basis to:
◦a position outside Canada
◦an affiliated enterprise outside Canada or
◦a client of the Canadian business or the public service outside Canada

I don't imagine that it would be very easy to get a job in the public service of Canada before you are even a landed immigrant in Canada. Even then, from what I understand, even though you can legally get a job in the public service, it is difficult to get such a job unless you are a Canadian Citizen. I may be wrong but that is what I have read/heard elsewhere.

Hi, Toronto. Intern-ship?!; how can I find out Sir?.

Before going that far...why not just call your VO and ask? ;D

Coz its highly unlikely that u would get status update from VO

Quite possibly correct. I'd still give it a try though.

Hi Friends,

Just posting the info I received via PM from a forumite....Hope it's useful for someone if necessary...

In case u lose the PP with Stamped Visa (God forbid ;D)..

file a Police Report (in general, in all cases, even for re-issue of PP, Police report is a must)..then raise CSEs with ur VO..they will respond asking u to re-issue PP and then submit the re-issued PP along with a DD for CAD 30 in favor of "Receiver General of Canada" payable at Canada..

And they will re-issue the Visa........So don't panic even if u lose ur PP...(but try not to lose it lol)

Not long man...It's just treated as a fresh stamping...so I imagine it'd be similar to the time taken for the initial stamping...

However, in ur case I think, ur correcting some errors in COPR/ Visa so they have to check the additional supporting docs once and then print the Visa Counterfoil/ COPR..it might be slightly longer....

Don't worry, it will come through and soon

Yes, I called to VFS Global customer care number. They said it is still at High commission office. They suggested me to send mail to delhi-im-enquiry @ international.gc.ca to check the status. I have not got any reply yet.

VFS is bound to get an update of it as we have handed our passports to them and have paid for their services. I called up VFS for my PP query and they said it should be back in next 4-5 days if not then I must contact VFS again and THEY will send a query to embassy for status update.

So call VFS and ask them to make a query from their end too while you make a direct query to the embassy. DOUBLE PING

@naijacanada

Yes, if u have account in a bank's branch in UK and the statement is issued from the same branch (just being extra cautious), the statement can be used as POF. U can also carry TC/DD etc as POF

Hi

Please can some one use UK bank statements for proof of funds when landing? My friend is planning to land in Calgary next week and just wondering if cash is only proof of funds or bank statements can be use too

Thanks for your help
