QUEBEC APPLICANTS LETS SHARE EXPERIENCE

[Umer Shahzad]

Nope, I m not sad.
I m just surprised at the bold decisions taken by CIC and Quebec Immigration Ministry.

In fact I m happy for me and for all qsw applicants who have submitted their applications.Really, such decisions takes courage to apply and this changes will have very positive impact on those applicants who have already submitted their applications and waiting for the decision or interview.
It will also fasten the overall processing times, because they will not be having any new applications till March 31st, 2013. So they can give their full attention to applications already submitted.

Now, is the time FOR ACTION.

thanks to Gryffindorgirl,


lol the quota for the investors has been already filled

Latest update:
        *post is updated with details of Gryffindorgirl.

other forum members including those who got their CSQ/interview date, pls update your details too
With details of knivesvente & Gryffindorgirl updated in this tracker:

see knivesvente's file number is 81xxx, so from 12.2010 (aislam) to 04.2012 (knivesvente), there are 818xx-661xx = 15700 files submitted to BIQ HK during this period of 17 months, so an average of 900 files per months received by BIQ HK for this period.

[Bachar]

this is what I was afraid of....
And they have implemented it for qsw as well....

www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/informations/applications-receipt.html
Intake of applications
Following a decision by the government published in the Gazette officielle du Québec on June 29, 2012, the Ministère de l'Immigration et des Communautés culturelles has suspended the intake of applications for a selection certificate that can be submitted by certain economic immigration candidates.

New intake rules according to immigration class

Immigration subclass
Bussinesspeople Investors
No new applications will be accepted from April 14, 2012 to March 31, 2013

Entrepreneurs and self-employed workers
No new applications will be accepted from June 30, 2012 to March 31, 2013

Skilled workers
See below to determine if you can submit an application in the Skilled worker class between April 1, 2012 and March 31, 2013.

Hello Mkshah

does it mean that they will are not going to accept any new application till March 31, 2013??
what about the people who are building their dreams and started to get french lessons all around the world ?
I am sad for this, i can not just say its okay for the old applicants
why didn't they decide this March 21, 2012? why to change 5 times in less than one year period?

[lemans207]

Damascus office is closed the files have been transferred to Montreal

You have obtained a diploma awarded by a Québec teaching institution for studies done in Québec or you are about to obtain that diploma and you meet the eligibility conditions of the Programme de l'expérience québécoise (Québec Graduate) (PEQ - Québec experience program for Québec graduates).
You reside temporarily in Québec as a foreign student, you are eligible to apply for a selection certificate under the regular program for skilled workers and you are submitting your application in Québec.
You reside temporarily in Québec within the framework of a youth exchange program subject to an international agreement, such as a work holiday program. You are working full time in Québec, you are eligible to apply for a selection certificate under the regular program for skilled workers and you are submitting your application in Québec.

people....they are still accepting new immigrants......

Yes, people are just panicking because of the "not accepting", but they haven't even read the paragraphs.

From their post, nothing has changed from the previous modification. Only allowing skill workers with AOT with 6, 12, 16 points...

And the Fed limit doesnt apply to QSW.

Check the Q&A with Attorney David Cohen:
http://www.cicnews.com/2012/06/question-answer-david-cohen-june-2012-061600.html

Will the temporary pause in accepting Federal Skilled Worker applications affect my application to Quebec immigration?

No, as of now the Quebec Skilled Worker program as well as other Quebec programs are still open to receiving new applications, provided the applicant is eligible to apply.
