Tracking PNP October 2012 applications to Nova Scotia

[pangandoy]

do not pay rprf fee until they specifically ask you

problem solved

The reason I raised my concern is because, they (CEM) asked me already to pay RPFR.


Thanks.

Doc:
Birth certificates (me,wife,2 children)
Marriage certificate
police clearance
passport copy
Bank draft
No ielts as i am pharmacist not under category C&D


please advice

What is the category that you applied under?

From what I see you are missing the following documents
1- IMM 5620 - Fee payment Form (Although you paid by bank draft, you are still required to fill in and submit the form)
2- Photographs
3- Translation of any documents not in english
4- National ID documents
5- Mailing labels
6- Copy of your nomination in case you applied under PNP which I am assuming is not applicable to you.

Hi pagandoy,

Did you have your medicals done? If so, then what is your timeline?

Hi all,
we're five (5) in the family and our medical was done last jan 24, but my husband who was supposed to be the principal applicant was not yet cleared by the doctor and he was advise to take another medical test (chest xray). I just want to ask from you dear friends if in case he did not pass in the next test and his dependent were already passed and OK, what will happen to us (his dependent)? I feel nervous and thinking we might not have a chance to go to Canada. Appreciate your inputs my dear friends. God bless us all

Hi lahorimunda,

Looking at your timelines, you got AOR on Dec 5th and MR on Jan 9th which is more than a month gap between AOR and MR. Do you have any idea why it took so long in your case? If you see at my timelines, it was just 3 days between my AOR and MR. Anyway, good luck buddy. Please be in contact if you have any further updates.

Thanks,
Sarayu.

Hi Sarayu,

The delay is because I have a spouse on my application that is why the processing is taking longer. The delay is because of my spouse on my application. Sure, I will definitely keep you guys updated on the progress.

@ ALL

Hi,

In which currency would you suggest paying RPRF, CAD$490 (bank draft) or Php19,900 (manager's cheque)? Although the website says it's advisable to pay in CAD$ due to currency fluctuation. Because if I opt to pay in CAD$, the cheque's funds has to come from The Bank of Nova Scotia as the cheque that BPI(local bank in the Philippines) issues shows the name The Bank of Nova Scotia. Then the drawee is The Receiver General for Canada. Are they going to wait until it will be encashed or withdrawn from The Bank of Nova Scotia (which has no branch in Philippines) before they continue processing my application?

Where as, if I choose to pay in Php. The drawee will be the Embassy of Canada (Manila) which they can easily encash or withdraw the cheque. However, the website says that the Fee Schedule is in effect as of January 30, 2013. I will be sending my RPRF payment on 28 January 2013. What if after January 30, 2013 it increases from Php19,900 to more, and they haven't opened yet my mail containing the cheque?

1. was wondering if its gonna affect the speed of processing my application as to when they can encash or withdraw the CAD$ bank draft for RPRF.

2. I don't know If I can send them like Php20,500 or Php21,000. Which is more than the stated equivalent amount of Php19,900.

My recommendation to you is to pay in Canadian Dollars.

Yo guys i m in canada applicant and havent received ma MR yet

Got my AOR on Nov 27.11.2012 but there is no news after that..!!!! Kinda off worried......

Same timeline almost the same situation but I applied outside of Canada and my local VO is Sydney, Australia.

I still have not heard after the 27th November AOR. I also applied for an Open Work Permit last December with all my passports and until now I haven't heard a thing. Now I'm worried since I don't have any identification with me and the mere silence from the CIC makes it a lot worst. :-X
