QUEBEC APPLICANTS LETS SHARE EXPERIENCE

I  used VISA debit card as payment method. My banker just informed us that these cards will be replaced in by Mid May 2012. Definitely this new card will carry new details, Number, expiry date. Can I wait and send another payment form with new details and attach an explanatory note as soon as the card is issued? Will this be a problem? Does anyone have the e-mail of BIQ Paris?

Hi,

Once you receive the new debit cards, you can fax Paris BIQ and explain the situation and at the same time sign another payment form, fill it with the details of new debit card and send it to BIQ in your earliest  with the following details:

You name, Sur name
Date of Birth
Passport Number
Application send date

If they unable to charge your debit card they will send you a letter asking for the payment and in some cases they also return all the documents back to the applicant. In my case they have sent me a form to sign it and send them back with an AOR and Reference number but It has delayed my application upto 3 months. I hope that helps. Cheers

Dear forum members,

BIQ has updated the guide in April and they have changed the points of A2.

Earlier the points of A2 were 3 + 3 =6 , now it has changed to 2+2=4

Moreover, they have mentioned in guide that, attestation of delf is not acceptable now, only certificate of delf  issued by Commission nationale du DELF-DALF is acceptable.

To confirm, Please see the page 38 on the link given below :

They have NOT mentioned that attestation de reussite is unacceptable, have they? It says releves des resultats d'une session DELF is unacceptable.

Thanks in advance

Hi , I have done DELF A1 last week and is it possible to send my application with a certified result sheet? because, my IELTS certificate will expire in 2012 Nov. If i send my application and if they call for interview after expire the IELTS certificate then what will happen?

Please advice.

Can someone PLEASE PLEASE tell me urgently if I will get points for my Masters degree if I have done it through correspondence from University? I have got the transcripts in sealed envelope for the same but nowhere on the transcript was it mentioned that it is through correspondence. However, my convocation certificate mentions 'Master of Commerce (External)' so they will know I did it through correspondence? Note that I did not have to attend any classes for the same because it is Distance Education.

Will I get points for this degree or NOT? PLEASE PLEASE HELP!

if you have query for this mate you have to contact BIQ hongkong or just email them write down on a piece of a paper that you have passed your exam and you are waiting for your diploma which can take more then 6 months i don't know how stupid they are. They know about the problems but still they have created some much complexity its not possible at the moment but you can ask BIQ they can tell you better according to the guidence its not possible at the moment the thing is that they want to earn money like British people have a monopoly of IELTS they want to create there own monopoly through TEFAQ why there is no listening and speaking limitation on TEFAQ and why there is a limit on DELF only ?

Please help... I just translated my diploma and it says: MASTER IN TRANSPORT ENGINEERING... Am I in group 1 or 2, how many points do I get?

One more question.. I am filling my Application for Selection Certificate and I have to list education, name of institution and name of diploma obtained. Do I write name of institution and name of diploma in English or in my mother language??

[sebbo]

Hi there

When you have submitted your application for a selection certificate, do you get a notification confirming that they have received it? Or how is the procedure?

And I have read that people living in countries who previously had to send the the application to Paris now have to send the application for the selection certificate directly to Montréal and no longer to Paris / Bruxelles, is this correct?

Thanks
Sam

It depends on your location. There are plenty of organizations that do TEF/TEFaQ testing. Check for one near you. I paid 150EUR. (Oral comprehension and oral expression).

As far as I know, Vienna's office does not provide immigration services anymore (Eastern Europe region). After you submit your app. you should get your AOR# ((Acknowledgement of Receipt). It usually takes 4 months.

Hi Sam,
I have submitted my application in August last year. There are no notifications unless you have a signed delivery to the Paris BIQ. Paris BIQ only sends you an AOR and Fee Receipt for the very first time when they contact you. Time does vary for receiving the first AOR. I have not only called the Paris BIQ but also visited them and I have been told to wait up to 5 months in order to receive the first AOR. That is normal.

They have contacted me in Feb 2012 again and asked me to sign a form for payment processing. Which I have sent back in March. They didn't respond until I called them last week. A nice lady told me to wait for 3 more weeks but today I have noticed that the money has been charged from my bank account.

Yes, According to new rules you just can not send your application to Paris BIQ. This is what Paris BIQ says:
As of March 16, 2012, candidates must submit their application for immigration to the following address:

Management of economic immigration - International
Service in Western Europe, Sub-Saharan Africa, North Africa
285, rue Notre-Dame West, 4 th Floor,
Montreal (Quebec) H2Y 1T8
CANADA

I hope that would also help other Paris BIQ applicants. Cheers
