AINP Application package(H1B Stream) sent after 01-01-2009 under the NEW process

[divagirl]

It depends on when u send appln to CIC or AINP. State PCC  does not apply to people who sent appln to CIC before 2-19-2009. The new appln process to AINP started around Dec end 2008 (not sure of the exact date), Coz when I called AINP on Jan 5th, they sent me a letter detailing old process, but the lady to whom I spoke told me that the process has changed and no pre-assesment was done from Jan 1st.

Diva ,

i think state pcc also applies to Old process

coz if you check buffalo checklist of documents you will find state pcc as a requirement

The New process under AINP was to apply directly without an invitation and maintain H1 status until a 'Decision' is made.
The New process under CIC includes getting State PCCs in USA from all the states where you have lived for more than 6 months.

I have browsed through all pages on the thread. But have a few unanswered questions. Appreciate your responses/clarifications.

Could anybody please help me understand what the differences are with the 'New' and 'Old' processes of the AINP H1B Programs. Below are some of the differences (I think), are there more and/or have I not interpreted the below differences correctly ?
1) The H1B validity requirement - The 'New' requires that the applicant hold a valid H1B visa as of the 'Decision' date i.e. Nomination date
2) The 'New' application process does not require sending documents via email for an invitation before applying

Did the 'New' process go into effect on Feb 19, 2009 ?

I mailed my application (i.e. sent it only) on Feb 19, 2009. Would this be counted as 'Old' or 'New' ?

Thanks !

  I have total Exp of 13 years. 4 years as Programmer Analyst(NOC 2171 I am applying) in USA and 9 years As Mechanical Technician in India.

State PCC  does not apply to people who sent appln to CIC before 2-19-2009.

What is the source of this Info? As far as I know CIC can ask for it to anyone regardless of the Application Date.

Please see post #305 under "Re: H1B - Alberta PNP File Number / Certificate Timeline" thread by alberta1978. He has sent the contents of the mail and i got the same mail.

I would say... go with the one that you can provide supporting documents like employment letter, reference letter.

Use the NOC code of your current job title.

Check 2171 if your job matches

please clear this.

That is because the list was updated in February 2009 and lot of new codes were added. The old list did not have anything other than 2171 for computer related jobs.

Hope this helps.
