2. Will it be problem in my case which is a short form (as mentioned above) if yes, what all the supporting documents do I need to submit to overcome?
3. Do I need to mention in a section where do you call by other names as YES even though it is short form of the name.

Hello @legalfalcon. My AOR is April 11, 2018 and I've been in eligibility review since April 19th. I have since provided them with additional documents regarding work experience (reason for review) in October, but no progress has been done in the file since June, 2018 (As shown by GCMS notes). I'm currently in Canada with a student visa. I'll be graduating this April. Is it possible that my student status is one of the reasons for the delay? Could they be waiting for me to finish college to finally move on with the process??

Exact same case as mine.
I found this on this forum. I don't understand the specifics but maybe you would.

Many of us want to know what are the pre June applications, and what the meaning of MI-1, MI-2 and / or Mi-3
Below is the details may its help.


Summary
Effective July 1, 2011, a cap of 10,000 new Foreign Skilled Worker (FSW) applications, without an offer of arranged employment, will be considered for processing each year. Within the 10,000 cap, a maximum of 500 new applications per occupation will be considered each year. Instructions are given to the field on what to do with applications received before and after this date.

Background
On June 18, 2008, the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act was amended to give the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration the authority to issue instructions that would ensure the processing of applications and requests be conducted in a manner that, in the opinion of the Minister, will best support the attainment of immigration goals set by the Government of Canada.

The first set of Ministerial Instructions (MI-1) was issued on November 29, 2008 and established that new FSW applicants would be eligible for processing only if they had experience in one or more of the identified eligible occupations; if they had arranged employment; or if they had one year of legal, in-Canada work experience and status as a temporary foreign worker or international student. Under MI-1, all FSW applications were also submitted to the Centralized Intake Office (CIO) in Sydney, Nova Scotia, for an initial eligibility review. The final determination for eligibility and selection remained with the visa office.

The second set of MI (MI-2), issued on June 26, 2010, introduced a number of changes, including a revised list of eligible occupations, annual limits on the number of new applications to be processed in the FSW class, as well as revised eligibility criteria with respect to evidence of official language proficiency and work experience. In addition, the CIO was given the authority to make final eligibility determinations.

The third set of MI (MI-3) comes into force on July 1, 2011, and applies only to applications received by the CIO on or after this date. MI-3 includes changes to the following programs:


•Federal Entrepreneur Program:
A temporary moratorium on new applications will be placed on this program

•Federal Immigrant Investor Program (IIP):
Accept of 700 new IIP applications will be considered for processing each year. In addition, as of July 1, 2011, all new federal Immigration Investor applications must be submitted to the CIO.

•Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSW):
A cap of 10,000 new FSW applications, without an offer of arranged employment, will be considered for processing each year. Within the 10,000 cap, a maximum of 500 new applications per occupation will be considered each year.

The full text of these instructions can be found at http://www.gazette.gc.ca/rp-pr/p1/2011/2011-06-25/html/notice-avis-eng.html#d119

Overview of Ministerial Instructions for FSW Applications – July 1, 2011
MI-3 applies only to applications received by the CIO on or after July 1, 2011. All complete FSW applications received by the CIO prior to July 1, 2011 will continue to be considered for processing with regard to the requirements in effect at that time.

Complete FSW applications [note 1] received by the CIO on or after July 1, 2011, not exceeding the identified caps and meeting either of the following criteria shall be placed into processing:

Applications submitted with an Arranged Employment Offer consistent with requirements of subsection R82(2) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations;
or
Applications from skilled workers with evidence of experience in the last ten years under one or more [note 2] of the National Occupation Classification (NOC) codes specified in the MIs and do not exceed the identified cap of 10,000 new complete applications per year, with no more than 500 new applications in any one NOC code.

Limit on the number of applications to be processed per year
A maximum of 10,000 new FSW applications without an offer of arranged employment will be considered for processing each year.

Within the 10,000 cap, a maximum of 500 new FSW applications per NOC code will be considered for processing each year. The list of eligible NOC codes under MI-3 remains the same as those found in MI-2.

Complete applications supported by a valid offer of arranged employment, consistent with the requirements of R82(2), will be considered for processing without regard to either the global cap or the occupational list and its associated caps.

In calculating the caps, applications will be considered according to the date they are received. Applications received on the same date will be considered for processing with regard to routine office procedures.

For the unique purpose of calculating the caps, the cap year will begin on July 1, 2011, and end on June 30, 2012, unless otherwise directed in subsequent MIs.

Guidelines for new and existing applications
All new FSW applications will be considered according to the date they are received.

FSW applications received at the CIO before July 1, 2011
The third set of MIs does not apply to complete applications received prior to July 1, 2011. All FSW applications received by the CIO prior to this date shall continue to be considered for processing having regard to the requirements in effect at that time.

FSW applications received at the CIO on or after July 1, 2011
MI-3 applies to applications received at the CIO on or after July 1, 2011. The CIO will assess complete applications received on or after July 1, 2011 against the MIs to determine whether applicants are eligible for processing. The CIO will make a final eligibility determination, and those determined to be eligible will be placed into processing.

Applications that receive a negative eligibility determination will not be processed and will receive a full refund of the processing fee. The application and documentation submitted will not be returned.

Submitting the application

All new FSW applications will continue to be sent to the CIO. Applicants are required to submit their complete application, together with all supporting documents, to the CIO. This includes all documents listed both on the CIO and document checklists specific to the visa office.

The CIO will review applications for completeness and, if the application is incomplete, the entire application package will be returned to the applicant.

Final eligibility determination at the CIO
The CIO will assess the applicant's submission based on the documentation submitted and make a final determination of eligibility. To be eligible for processing, the applicant must meet all the criteria described in the MIs. If the applicant's submission is determined to be ineligible for processing, the applicant will be informed and will receive a refund. The application and documentation submitted will not be returned. If the CIO makes a positive eligibility determination, the application will be placed into processing and the applicant will no longer be eligible for a refund.

@legalfalcon I recently received ITA after waiting for a long long time.
I've recently realised that I have a few things on my criminal record that might get in the way of me getting PR though

I have 2 offences as a juvenile offender in my home country:
- shoplifting
- possession of marijuana

I also got a DUI in The Netherlands 6 years ago. I blew 0.04, which means I was under the limit of 0.05, but it turned out that they have a different limit for people who are within the first 5 years of owning their driver license. I got a ticket in the mail, which I paid for back then.

Because I thought this was just a traffic ticket and because the other 2 offences were before I turned 18, I never mentioned this when entering Canada many times in the past and when successfully applying for a working holiday visa. I applied for my certificates of good conduct in both countries and both came back clean, which I thought confirmed this.

Am I meant to apply for criminal rehabilitation now? I'm concerned that if I apply now, I might get a ban for apparently lying/misrepresenting in the past.
Can I just explain this on my PR application instead and avoid the really long waiting time for rehabilitation, since juvenile offences don't make you inadmissible and there is no similar crime in Canada for being in the first 5 years of your license plus I was under the 0.08 Canadian limit?

If I do apply for rehabilitation, can I apply for TRP and visit Canada in that time? How long does it take to get TRP?

Hello,
What are my chances of getting admission for a Post Graduate Diploma in international Development.
Also what schools offer PGD programs?
And possibly scholarships for an international student?

Hello,
What are my chances of getting admission for a Post Graduate Diploma in international Development.
Also what schools offer PGD programs?
And possibly scholarships for an international student?

1. Admission depends on many factors depending on the school (like English proficiency test scores, academic records, etc)
2. Your best bet is to google it, Canada is pretty big after all.
3. No. International students pay as much as 5-7 times what a domestic student pays. Do you really think they're going to pass on that money?

@legalfalcon I got my GCSM notes. I have following notes from Case Analyst.

Review Required for MI3
A11.2 appears met ,

Is A11.2 Eligibility met? If so, why I have a MI3 in RR. Any thoughts, anyone knows what it means?
Thank you for your help.

Hi @legalfalcon
Could you please give me some advice? Can I change to do a medical exam with another panel physician if my first panel physician fails to provide me with information sheets with IMM for uploading? He is the only one in my state that is approved by IRCC. Today is the 12th day after my medical exam with him. I completed all exams including physical one at his office, blood test, urine test and xray. He replied my message 4 days ago that he was sick and he would send me results in 2 days. But I did not receive anything or heard from him. I only have 2 weeks left to submit my application but I am worried that this doctor may not send me the sheet in time. My family has already paid him in cash with no receipt ( more than 1000$). We do not want to pay for another exam but still think about a worst case scenario- that is book another appointment with another approved physician that is 7 hr drive from our residence. I look forward to your advice. If he has already created my file with CIC but not finished with final report, will other physician be able to do medical exam for me and provide me with an information sheet and IMM. Many thanks.

Yes, you ca get an examination from any panel physician. You simple have to notify IRCC of the IMM number and send the upfront examination sheet, and they will add that examination to your file.
