Hi All,

This is my first posting in this forum..  Hope to hear back soon...

I am currently residing in USA and working full time on my OPT (Optional Practical training) directly related to my degree.

Level of education - Masters in Mechanical Engineering (2010 passed out)
                            Bachelor in Aeronautical engineering (2007 passed out  @ India)
Work experience - 2 year of full time experience in USA related to mechanical engineering (1 year full time during masters and more than 1 year (Still working) after Masters program)
1 year Internships in India during bachelor's program related to aeronautical engineering field (between 2006 to 2007)

IELTS band score - 7.0
French language - taking French Beginner classes (Can provide letter from the respective institution on the enrollment. reading older posts, I understand that no points will be awarded for this but just on safe side to show the officer that I am learning french course)

Age - 26

Marital Status - Single

Can you please give me an estimated idea on chances of getting CSQ?

Also, to my knowledge, I understand that the CSQ application has to be sent first. Once I get the CSQ approved, I then have to send another application with required documents to CIO.

Thanks,
Sri...

Thank you very much OsamaR,

I noticed also that my address is not present there maybe I will get good news hopefully.

Changing a status is indeed a good news. but I am not sure address disappear has to anything with the progress. I see my address is also not present now.
It happened that to my file few months back. and address was visible again after one day. I thought that could be due to  some system maintenance.

any way good luck to all..

Thanks a lot MKSHAH.
I am applying to hongkong for CSQ. So do we need to put any photos? in checklist it is not mentioned, so all who have put file, please advice....
And where to find Appendix A?

Hi there! Do any of you know of any case in which the CSQ is offered only by applications (selection sur dossiers), i.e. without having an interview? Does it always happens if you have enough points (57 for single and 63 for couple)?

I sent my applications late October 2011 to BIQ Hong Kong. I got 59 points only with that. I will have my DELF B1 and B2 results next week. I believe I will gain at least 8 points, while I only need 4 more to meet the "selection sur dossiers" requirements.

Hello,
How did you know that you "got 59 points" ??

[bajegirl100]

Hi. I am preparing to send in my application for the and need some guidance. I am presently doing classes with Alliance Francais but won't be ready to do a test as yet and not at least for the next 6 months . If I claim 0 points for French, can I submit the results of a test after? I was thinking to submit a receipt or letter to show I am enrolled in classes and intend to submit those later. Anyone feedback is appreciated.

Hello,
How did you know that you "got 59 points" ??

Based on the grades:

- Education: 12
- Experience: 8
- Age: 16
- English: 6
- Spouse: Education: 3+2; Age: 3
- Kids: 8
- Finance: 1

12+8+16+6+3+2+3+8+1 = 59

Hi there, we're absolutely on same boat. I wish to dispatch my QSW application forms asap but then again needed the French class prior to French Proficiency test. Does AF allow it? I mean, could we request to provide us a certification letter to add value to our application? Then so, when the time Quebec Immig asks for the test result, we would have finished the course.  Good luck to us!!!:)

BIQs now only allow certifications from accredited french exams for you to claim points. What's your AOT btw? If you're confident that you'll have the required points for you to be able to get an interview, then you can submit your QSW application ASAP but if not, then you'd be better off with waiting for the exam results. Good luck.

My sincerest congratulations to you!! God is so great! I am also from Pearl of the Orient =) Where was your interview held? Have you also taken French courses as prep? Can you please share some of the Q's during your interview? Wish you a happy and meaningful "new life" all the way to Quebec! God bless you.

AF is accredited right? Would you settle finishing first your French course i.e. 6 months then take test? I'm based in Dubai, do you know where would be the designated visa office?
