Hi, compared to waiting for some unknown time to hear back from them, I might just wait for a few months to apply under PNP after my defense. Anyway, I think I didn't have a TA job for the summer of 2007. After that, I pretty much had continuous TA work. But, you might be right, that summer might have been the reason why I don't have a "continuous" 1950 hours. Reno, thanks for being so positive  But would you at least consider contesting the decision, since I really do think that you have a good enough reason to do so (unless there were indeed some prolonged breaks within the past 6 years that would prevent you from getting the required 1,950 hours)?

I agree with you about the PNP thing. It will probably be much faster. You are lucky to be in a province that has such as thing.

Hi, TyrusX. I also think this FSW PhD stream should be relatively fast as well. I still expect that someone of this thread will get passport request by June or July. Let's hope that will be the case! I agree with you about the PNP thing. It will probably be much faster. You are lucky to be in a province that has such as thing.

I heard that you can apply for PNP in the last year of your degree. So, you don't need to wait for your defense, I think!

I see. I suppose what 'begin shortly' means will be crucial here. So you really claimed no other work experience than TA/RA? I'm assuming that you only claimed the T4 portion of your income? Be that as it may, with at least 5 adaptability points from your wife, then you have at the very least 71 points (or 76 if you get the 2 years of PhD adaptability points, which are still ambiguous), so that could probably help expedite the whole process.
I Only claimed TA/RA, and almost half of them appears on the T4A. T4 or T4A doesn't matter, I guess. However, I think the 'continuous' requirement is up to officers' discretionary judgement. and I have a letter to explain my work experience. So a remind to other coming applicant, pay some attention to explain any break or flaw in your work experience.

Hi Reno, I am sorry to hear your status now. I think if you go through the PN, it should be much faster. BTW, Mine is in process now.

Sorry that there might be some misunderstanding that I just found out my nationality in the spreadsheet is "Iran", but I am actually from China.
