IMPORTANT - need to send ALL documents to the CIO now (not visa office)

[Saurav]

Dear Shahla

I think you didn't get me. I said IELTS is the best factor... where you can score and improve the same. Now you are saying it is 5.5 bands, means you are scoring around 8 points....... There is a full scope / chance of scoring further 8 points .... So dear friend, just try to improve your IELTS .... go for a good coaching, attend mock classes, listen to the IELTS cassettes AND give some time to your capability. Repeat the exam .... you can score a max of 16 points ...... 4 points more than what you require!!!! Do not loose hope .... you can do it. All the BEst.

Cheers, Anil

HI,
As I had sent my new application on 2nd October,2010 to CIO,Sydney.I wasn't able to send my sealed envelope transcripts of KU,becoz I am abroad.Neither I attested my educational documents from HEC,Islamabad,but they are just notarized and verifed from KU.so what do you think?
if my file would reach London VO,then would they ask for my sealed envelope transcripts of KU and attested educational documents from HEC,Islamabad?or it'll be ok.otherwise then I have to get university sealed transcripts and verified documents from HEC for 2nd phase?
Pls. clear me....................
Is KU giving university sealed transcripts to the applicants?pls. tell me in your experience..................

Notarize educational documents is sufficient.
However,there is a chance(50%)that CIO might find your application "Incomplete" since you didn't send transcript in university sealed envelop & all incomplete application get returned to applicant's address.
N.B: If KU university doesn't provide transcript in sealed envelop then you have to provide an explanation letter explainig the matter to CIO.

Dear Dr Hasib,
Thanks for your valuable time and comments. if my brother goes canada in feb end. after his landing when can i claim his points(After what time after his landing)? And what document should i get from him to support my claim. 

[Reeya]

test (currently IELTS and CELPIP for English and TEF for French) with their application (to the CIO)

2) PCC's must be submitted for EVERY APPLICANT (principal applicant, spouse, conjugal partner, children over a certain age depending on each country - usually 18 but sometimes 16) for every country you have lived in for 6 months or more since you were 16 or 18 years old.   Note also that these must be in English or French or translated by an accredited translator.


I know this seems to be a big change, but don't despair.   What you need to send hasn't changed ... you just need to send it all at once.   Think positive - you no longer have to wait until you get AOR from CIO and therefore this process should be faster and this way you can make sure you have everything in time (there's been many posts before from people who are looking to get extensions from 120 days which will no longer be necessary).    Good luck to everyone!  If you have questions, post and search the forum ... there's lots of people who are very helpful here!

Yup....
We have to submit ALL documents (including PCC original, if it is there) to CIO, Canada. NOTHING to Visa Office.
