Guess I'm more torn in between than ever! I really like Montréal as a city, for I guess it's got more character and is architecturally richer and all; [correct me if I'm mistaken for my experience comes exclusively from google maps! lol] but then I'm afraid my French isn't that very good...

Wow! You know what? I've wait 4 times more than you did and still no CSQ??? I really can't take the stress of not hearing from them anymore! What do you mean by life is tougher in Greater Toronto? How do you compare that?

Hey Ryan, Lucky you! Your process was quick, for I've got a friend who've just received medical request after 9 months. Can I know after how many months you received your CSQ [from the date you got AOR]?

@ Razaqng I guess this is the standard answer they give. I called them back in March, then again in June and I got exactly the same answer as you got. 5 months have since elapsed and I'm not seeing anything being speed up at all! All my friends who had filled for PR have been receiving their...

Lucky you! Wish I had that option too! Guess we should find work @ the Montreal immigration office and reform the whole processing thing! ;D What does it cost to send an email these days? What's the point of giving us a file number when we can't do a damn thing with it! I wish there were...

Hey Razaqng I'm from Mauritius! The information that some files have been sent to Montreal office, does it come from trusted sources or it's just a speculation? While going thru the material on the web, what I did make out is that Paris office would no longer accept new applications for CSQ...

To all those who are thinking whether calling BIQ-Paris would perhaps shed some light, you are so wrong. Calling them doesn't help at all. I called them under 2 circumstances. After making me wait for over 30 mins on international call, I managed to talk to a lady, however, all she could tell...

@ cochin007 Hi, the application process stretches over several years, so, it is vital that you state year whenever you are citing a date. So, do u mean you applied in April 2012? If yes, you might wanna check the link below as I guess the Paris office no longer accepts CSQ applications...

Hey Babake, I totally agree with you that it is crazy as how long this whole thing is taking. Totally unprofessional to me. But you were lucky enough to have had other better alternatives lined up for you and you could as easily give up upon your plans to move there. However, for many...

Hi Mansoor, I dunno from which country you are, so the information I posted above, might not be relevant to your country. http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/immigrate-settle/permanent-workers/official-immigration-application/immigration-application/processing-times-table.html So...

Omg stevenllc , guess what? Since october 2011 immigration québéc website was stating that they have dealt with applications upto August 2010. Now they've just updated that info and now it is stating that applications upto september 2010 only are complete???? ??? Can you believe that? In 8...

That's totally crazy! How did s/he manage that? I've waited longer than his/her entire process thing took and I still haven't even got the CSQ??? Lucky him/her! Guess s/he is happily settled there by now!

You mean your friend applied in February 2010 and then got CSQ in July 2010 itself and PR in July 2011???

Hey stevenllc Been waiting for much longer than u have yet, still no sign of the mysterious CSQ! I scarcely know what to tell ya! I am as desperate as you are! :( I'm pretty sure it hasn't been rejected. I did call BIP in March and they told me my case is still under study. I bet yours is...

The whole immigration process thing is so unprofessional. The situation at the Paris office has gotten catastrophic. The waiting time is totally crazy! That's the height. I am considering giving up too!

Hi Smallie Yeah. I started my initial application back in October 2010. Then received AOR, i.e. File number in March 2011. So, 14 months after AOR, still no news from them. My visa office is Paris. No they never asked for any additional document, at least not till now! The wait is killing...

Hello everyone, Anyone who received AOR around March 2011 who has eventually got his /her CSQ as yet?

Hi Zyad, I got my file number in about 5 months. You should get yours shortly I suppose. However, after almost a year since I applied for the CSQ and still got reply from them.

mansoorashmi, razaqng or anyone, can you please lemme have the e-mail address for BIQ Paris? Been waiting for the CSQ for 7 months now. Does anyone think, it'd be wise if I write to them and inquire about my CSQ? Do they reply to such matters at all? Thanks

Hi brebu, I am unable to answer that question as in my case, neither French nor English test were required, so I don't really know the procedures for the language test.
