January, 2012 Applicants please join in this thread...

[samirsa]

this what me talking about ... don't mix completeness of application and eligibility review .... one forum member describe the cap process:

Applications count towards the cap once they pass the completeness test at CIO.

If they later fail the eligibility review at CIO, or fail for any reason at the visa office, then this does not open another slot for someone.

It is 500 applications per NOC considered for processing, not 500 per NOC visas issued.

And from 1st July 2011 please remember it will be 500 per NOC, not 1000.

Hi aifarooqi

Hi aifarooqi

I agree with you too, so I should correct my mistake by admitting that the completeness phase is the phase not the eligibility phase! Actually I was trying to stress on the fact that they are incorporating new applicants with total number even sooner than issuing their PER/NER. Nonetheless, now the question is how long this completeness stage is in our situation? This new, announced cap on the CIC site has been covering applicants until when? until January 10th? until January 20th?...? Are there any possibility that we have already been in the cap?!( No offense, but please answer realistically not optimistically)

How many days are between completeness phase and eligibility phase, which they en-cash processing fee, in our situation?!

By our situation, I mean most of the popular fields have filled already, and based on spreadsheet's information less applicants applied in January compare to previous months; hence, the pending queue should be shorter for us!

hi guys, just letting you know my cc has been processed by CIC...application received by CIC on 11th jan, cc charged 14th feb.  NOC 7251. 
can you tell me if my cc has been processed does this mean that hopefully a PER is on its way, roughly how long for a PER, I have seen 3days to 2 weeks after cc processed at the moment??

we are not sure that we are in cap now because what samirsa and i was thinking is the same ...but in between you and one other member raise new thought in which you people connect cap with DD encashment .... but we are saying that keep cap separate and eligibility review and and dd encashment separate. cap does not do to with eligibility review.

i give you example .... that NOC 1122 the most fastest cap was filled on 22 AUG 2011 now what you people think that in 52 days all 500 applications of  NOC 1122 got PER and their DD have been encashed....no it cant be possible... we cant give any specific time for check of completeness of the application but what we know that in 52 days 500 applications have been checked for completeness (which is the most fastest and demanded NOC).....and further eligibility review process have been started for them. so what i think is that completeness review should be completed in max 2 weeks and it also depends upon the que of your application also after that 40 to 45 days fro the eligibility review check.

because CIO received 1000 applications and all are not complete may be some body missing some thing may be some mistake so until the completeness not complete they don't count in application they count the application in cap when all things are completed according to checklist and after that eligibility review started which is the imp process which decides your faith.

so if some application is not completed by any means its drop out and next in que will be checked for completeness so if that is complete they count in cap.

our fate depends upon the que before us at CIO simple ..... or some application drop at completeness check.

fingers crossseeeeeeeeeeeeeeed ....

Dear aifarooqi,

I received an e-mail from one of my friend about this which is in Persian, and it is too long for translation, so to make a long story short:
This is a time line for an applicant whom his application was returned because of some shortcoming

Here is my time line:
Sent thru FedEx: on nov. 1, 2011
Tracking showed: delivered on nov 4,2011
Stamp on the document was: nov. 2, 2011

They checked it on jan 5, 2012 and sent it back
I received on jan 17, 2012
Sent again on jan 18, 2012
Received on jan 19,2012

This time line indicates us two things:
1-They checked his application for being complete after nearly about two month- completeness check.
2-The completeness date of this applicant shows this is exactly the week that other first week of November's applicants' dd were en-cashed. Consider the fact that our applicant is one of this applicants!

Thus, I think we both are right in some way. You are right because they incorporate us with total number in completeness phase, I was right because actually there is not a big gap between completeness phase and eligibility phase, maybe a day or two! Then, after nearly about two week they are going to send us PER/NER email in third phase- selection & admissibility. I think sadly now it is more clear. I still wish I will be wrong dear.

I think all this complications are CIO's faults since they can inform us for every phase by e-mail very easily. On the other hand, due to the fact that based on my new information from completeness phase to selection & admissibility phase is about two weeks, they just send us an e-mail for final decision. 

Please note that eligibility review phase is not as same as selection & admissibility phase. One is related to en-cashing processing fee and the other to PER/NER decision.

hi guys, just letting you know my cc has been processed by CIC...application received by CIC on 11th jan, cc charged 14th feb.  NOC 7251. 
can you tell me if my cc has been processed does this mean that hopefully a PER is on its way, roughly how long for a PER, I have seen 3days to 2 weeks after cc processed at the moment??

Hi dear,

Thank you so much for your information friend. Now, they forward your application to selection & admissibility: assessing your points. If your points are enough, you will hopefully get a PER e-mail so soon. This may take about two weeks.

Again thank you so much for sharing this good news.

I am so sorry dear aifarooqi. My cousin always says about me, you are like an owl with a bad omen; always has a bad news! I admit that I am a little bit pessimistic about everything, but sincerely I hope I will be wrong and you will be in the cap. Like I said before, some day we would laugh about all of this in Canada together.
