Hello Seniors,

I got documents request for proof of fund,then I have sent it 8 days ago. However, I forgot to write 'Section B' but I wrote 7th floor. What should I do??? According to the FedEx, my application reached on 19 March and signed by 'XXX'.

Appreciate ur help:))
Not writing 'Section B' is fine. I made the same mistake, and emailed them immediately, and they replied the following hours after I sent them the email

Good evening,

It should arrive to our office even If you did not add ‘section B’.

It is probably not a bad idea to notify them that you made this 'mistake', just to make sure everything is fine.

He seems to be really proud of his "accomplishment. There are still roughly 100,000 backlogs in the federal skilled worker (I think technically all of us who applied in 2012 are part of the backlog here), so if they can really reduce it to about 10,000 in 2 years, most people who are applying this or next year should get processed really fast. Let's hope for the best.

Thank you so much, indeed.

On which email address you have sent them email?

Hi Guys,

I have some concerns about my immigration application. I submitted my application in March, 2012 and got the file number in early April, 2012. I haven't gotten any news from CIC so far. Is this normal situation? I left the email as the main connection way for CIC. if CIC request any documents or medical check, will I get the notice from email or mail? Thanks.
Hi unb_wood, could you provide your details for our track ? thanks

They may be reluctant to award 40 hours per week for TA/RA, but we have confirmed that several TA/RA only applications got accepted, and they all got their PR's. I personally knew two people who already got their PR applying using only TA/RA (though it was CEC last year). It's just the matter of how strong your letter is. And since you need only to have 1,950 continuous hours, if you write your letter in a clever way, you can easily get these hours. Do you mind sharing what you wrote for TA/RA descriptions?
mine for TA/RA is very brief, probabily not to informative to you guys. It just says: Mr. xx joined my lab since Jan, 2011, as a fulltime PhD student (40 hours/week). his research duties is to investigate novel data analysis mothod for neuronal data. his teaching duties is to assist in undergraduate courses in spring and fall semesters. His income is xxxxx.

About the only thing that you can do right now is to supply them with a longer explanation letter for your work experience according to NOC 4012 and hope that they will consider it. Since it's still at Sydney level, it's probably possible (once they ship everything to the VO, then the VO would have your explanation letter too that they will hopefully consider).

I sent my query to OttPilot-Immigration@cic.gc.ca . Let us know what they said.

I really hope they won't do something similar to backlogged MI-1 and MI-2 applications as they did to PreFeb2008 applications...

If someone wants to send additiona letter, do they need to wait for after File number is given?
