September 2012: FSW Arranged Employment applicants join here

[dbss]

Can anybody answer this?

Hi Guys

I have got my PCC on 8 Dec, 2012 and need to send it to CPP-O. My question is that the PCC is a letter given to me by CGI and then there is a stamp in my passport for the PCC...am I supposed to send the original PCC letter and a photocopy of the passport PCC or only original PCC or photocopy of the original PCC and passport page (this is unlikely because checklist says original but still)

How do you know what date was your file transferred to the VO from CIO?

Thanks.

As you said, "Sending your original PCC letter and a photocopy of the passport PCC" is the best way... I think. (Sending your original PCC to CPP-O via a regular mail is must)

Hi Everyone,

Finally I prepared my PR Application with AEO. But I got the problem that My Employer letter says currently working as Permanent full time RN (NOC 3012), 67.5 bi weekly hours and we are supporting this person for PR and continue the the Permanent full time work after getting PR. I am worrying about the hours. Is the hour acceptable as full time? Because in my company above 24 hour in week is considered as full time (I have attached the benefit booklet with application). Please help me if anyone having experience....


All the best for everyone to get positive result..

"full-time" means "37.5 hours per week" for us.
According to the Application for permanent residence: Federal skilled worker class (IMM 7000) (Factor 3: Work experience) , CIC mentions the time that ;
You will earn points for the number of years you have spent in full-time (37.5 hours per week), paid work.

Best of luck for you!

P.S.
The full-time for CEC applicants was changed to "30 hours p/w", but it doesn't affect us.

Hello everyone,

Does anybody knows how long to wait for a 2nd AOR within Canada?

P.S. local VO - Ottawa.

Thank you,

Hi eshotel,

So sorry to hear that >.<

Modified : please see the next post by gpranav first. Thanks!!





I suppose that the cause of your problem is one of followings ;

• CIC deleted your data from E-CAS whether or not it's by officer's mistake.
  Maybe you can ask NDVO (DELHI-IMMIGRATION@international.gc.ca).
  (Unfortunately, you can't use the Case Specific Enquiry form (for NDVO applicants) because CIC mentions they will not respond to your enquiry from that form if your application is within normal processing times)
  
  
  
• You checked a checkbox or clicked a submit button (see a pic below).
  If you did so, you wouldn't see your file electronically again, nor will anyone else.
  
  
  
  
  

Hope your E-CAS will be available again soon!

Thanks gpranav for a helpful link!

I read that thread and thought that this problem seems a good sign for some people who already got PPR.
Although it's not good for other ppl, and nobody found the causes and/or how to solve it yet, the E-CAS problem should be by system troubles.
So now, I guess that better way for eshotel and friends is ;
(1) Call to the CIC call center (don't ask to loval VO),
(2) Wait next e-CAS update (next Tuesday) OR
(3) Wait our hero/ine asking CIC and posting CIC's answer. (Maybe some applicants sent inquiry already)

I would like CIC to solve this E-CAS problem immediately...

 

[eshotel]

Thanks gpranav for such a info link. wish nothng goes wrong with d application.
Mysteaka i did call CIC they said they cnt chk d status of application filed & they had no problems in online service E-CAS so far coz nobodyelse raise d issue till now. they email me a form to fill n asked me email it bck to centerlized CIC sydney. which will talk a week to respond u bck. so mayb i hav 2 wait till E-CAS will come bck, dont lik to email Sydney, kindda another wait on top of waiting just 2 knw dat if somthng wrong with my application or wat??? its better waitin....
keepin postin

Thanks mysteaka...

Thanks mysteaka...

So on the cic online tracking tool problem . It seems that once the application has been assigned to a visa officer they turn off ur status and will update it with another quote when they are done screening the background checks . This is what the cic call center told me . So nothing to worry about any ways the visa office needs any info they would send us an e-mail .

hope this makes us all somewhat comfortable

The currently process time changes from 8 months to 15 months for "Case Processing Pilot - Ottawa ".
I applied in May 2012 for FSW2 and still shows in-process.
Just before 10 days the site shows 8 months process time and it shows 15 months.
I am not sure how long Case Processing Pilot - Ottawa holding the FSW2 and we are running out of work-permits in Canada.
Any one had some news on this process times for FSW2 application at Ottawa can share..
Thanks
Krishna

I am in the same boat.
However, you can get an open Work Permit if your SW Application is pending.
Secondly, CIC says that our SW applications sent to Buffalo and then transferred to Ottawa are prioritized and will be processed in 2013
And so far I didn't hear from anybody about a 2nd AOR from Ottawa. It looks they basically don't send it.
The last but not the least you can inquire your file notes according to the Privacy Act.

Good luck

Actually i sent an email"OttPilot-Immigration" and reply is same as "In-process" and provided the links to see latest process time.

Do we get the Open work permit or the work-permit from the same company.
Do we have any link that helps us to get the work-permit for the in-process FSW2 candidates.
Thanks
