Correct. The lady in question is a 14 years equivalent studies graduate, like any other normal graduate.

Dear Asif

If your wife is a graduate as a regular student, but done intermediate as a private student, then there is nothing to be worried about because I think that the point is secured on the most recent degree (which is BA in your spouse case) and hence is secured.  If your spouse had been an intermediate, then it would have been an irritant.
Do not worry, claim the point of your wife being a graduate..............

Manj or Hot-Lier can shed more light....

[Manj]

You should not get impatient...just wait. Nothing abnormal here and it could take anything between two to four months (generally speaking) before you could hear about medicals. Patience is the name of the game.

Can any one from seniors provide a word of suggestion / advice regarding my case?

1. Applied under FSW Category on 28th Sep 2008, from Islamabad under fast track catagory
2. Confirmation received on 20th October, 2008
3. Documents requested on 28th Mar 09.
4. Documents sent on 02-07-2009
5. A Son born on 07-07-2009 resulting in addition of family member. It was intimated to Immigration office Islamabad.
7. P.A received on 20th August requesting for any change in family status.
8. Accordingly, sent documents & Passport of my son on 10th Sep 2009.

Now waiting for medical request.


***** E-Cas status shows status ‘ In Process' since last 02 months************

One of my friend tells that, as per other blogs, medical request is received within 06 to 08 weeks after receipt of P.A letter.

Please guide when call for medical will be received?

Dear MRS
Thanks for sharing so valueable info and facts.
Pls share the salary package of Pakistani accountants/ACMAs and other relevent info.

Thanks & Regards

  @   JOJOBABA

Dear stop thinking about salary package etc.. Once you are here your primary goal should be to integrate in to the system. If you can get entry level job I think you should feel lucky and then you can grow with in  the system and can start thinking about salary packages at that time. By entry level jobs I mean Accounting Clerks, bookkeeper etc and you can expect any thing from $12 to $ 15 per hour for these jobs. The other jobs you can target is of tellers in bank, as there is huge turnover in this field the vacancies are always there, you should expect minimum wages for this job (I.e $9.5).

I have a bad news for you, the Society of Management Accountants gave negative assessment of my qualification (I.e ACMA) the reason is that they need at least one year CANADIAN experience to allow the ACMA's from Pakistan to get advance standing in their course . Now this seems ridiculas when we go for job they say you need Canadian qualification and when we go for Canadian qualification they say we need Canadian experience :)

Regarding CGA, they only assess our qualification if we provide the copies of our degrees and transcripts certified by the university/Institute and sent to them in sealed envelop of respective university/Institute. So I need to get the ICMAP certificate certified from the institute and send to them in ICMAP sealed envelop, same is the case of B.Com and I have to do it from University of Karachi.

Any ways, there are issues over here but still its worth trying your luck in this civilized society.

PA letter is an intermediary step which one receives when background checks have fully been completed and points finally awarded as per one's claim or above the minimum qualifying limit. It is now only medical which would determine one's final eligibility. If one receives medical ppr and rprf without PA letter, it could mean that there may be some background checks still pending but expected to be completed/cleared simultaneously while he/she is going through the medical.

Hope it gives some peace of mind to people waiting at different stages of their cases.

guys i need to clear one point that is generally chc is using two ways at final stages

1. They send medical ppr and rprf to an applicant but not provisional acceptence letter
2 they send provisional acceptence letter and not medics ppr and rprf together

Plz comment is there anyone who got all of above at one time. Moreover why chc is using two methods
I hop someone has answers

any comments

ajnum bhai u r rite is usppose but why chc would ask for ppr med and rprf if they have to conduct final eligibility. they shd ask passports once they are sure of an application's success

[Manj]

CHC, Islamabad accepts SSC, NIC, Bay-Form and PP as an alternate to your birth certificate. Late birth entry or certificate (later than three month's of birth) are not accepted.

I am posting this question time and again.
Kindly some one please answer my question.
Question:
I do not have birth certificate.
Is there any alternate to it? I have heard that CHC accept SSC in lieu of birth certificate
Is this true?

Dear seniors kindly provide guidance in this regard.
Thanks

Why dont you try to enter a late entry in union council

Manj, any source?? I just got my wife's birth certificate today. It says date of entry 28-2-2006 and date of issue 2nd nov 2009. and in
normal andraj and late andraj, normal andraj option is ticked. When I asked the guy he said 28-2-2006 is the date when we made this system computerized. So Will this birth certificate be Ok? As per your post, nobody in Pakistan would be required to submit a birth certificate because everybody submits his/her passport anyways.

So what is the source of your information sir?

[Manj]

Its the six factors which they are awarding points against. Some of those are 'fixed' (age, education, IELTS etc) and some are 'variable' (address, family status, experience, job descriptions etc). Amongst these they need to minutely verify the Police Certificates, Educational documents, Experience and finances. With experience I have observed that they feel satisfied as soon as the 'Experience' is verified. It does not mean that other three are over looked, but first two of them are more like 'fixed assets' and shall not change. So a 'book verification' is sufficient. The banker's verification regarding the financial status is generally reflected in the last letter where they may ask you to furnish an updated bank statement (like Hot-Lier or may be Imranali). So its when the Police and/or educational thing is in process, they may also feel that you are almost qualifying and thus issue you the relevant letter.

And last but not the least, we just speculate with our experiences but I wish someone official from CHC was on this forum and could satisfy us all with his replies.

Dear Farhan Bhai,

I faced the same issue because I did not have BC for self, wife or any of my children from the Zila councils. I only had hospital Birth certificates for my children. I therefore sent an email to CHC through my consultant in Islamabad to clarify this issue and was informed in reply that the mentioned documents are accepted as an alternate to the birth certificate. They very specifically had mentioned that I did not need to get new birth certificates made as these would be not be acceptable now.

Have faith and send the documents with a cover letter explaining that you are submitting SSC/NIC/Bay-Form/PP copies in lieu of missing birth certificates. InshahAllah, you will not face any problem.
