Not yet, as today is saturday. Bank asked me to call on sunday (in our country, our office is open from Sunday to Friday ).

Tomorrow, I will check with them, but I am not sure if they provide me updated information.
Last time, they told me the information dated 5 days back.

Any way , I will let you know , tomorrow evening.

Good luck.

Got the mail confirmation (Nov-2011) from New Delhi on their receipt of my application sent from NS.
They say the processing time is 10 months, as I applied in July, may be by around April 2012 i might know the decision.

Hi all, I also got PER on Nov 16.
,

hi kKghimire,

I have landed in winnipeg on 3rd of may. This is a good part of canada. I am getting good opening in my sector within this few days.

NOTHING TO WORRY

Canada is very much promising and welcoming people. This is my understanding about winnipeg within this span of time.

Very much helping, polite and manners, vow i love those amazing manners in talks and walks.

For instance: I was searching for start entry program office to register, i could not find it for a while. I entered a office to enquire about the office. I started to enquire with a lady in reception. She was not quiet sure about the place and then she started to ask every staff of the office. This was a govt office. At last i found a group of people(staff) are running to get me the right direction.

I felt amazing and thought of govt offices in our country.

They started searching thru internet and given me the print out of the map marking the route with a marker pen.

This was one of the wonderful experiences i had on this promising land.

so dont wory

you will love canada for sure.

Hi friend it is very hard to define occupation for 2121 as it covers vast area in biologist. I was also confused a lot in initial day and decided to put Pharmaqeutical microbiologist as i work in pharmaceutical industr as quality control. please provide detail work. I think you have to write biological researcher.

Hi friends
Very happy to let you know that I got the medicals request via email today.
Dont know whether I should wait till I get the forms by post here in Canada to go for the medicals.
They have also asked for my spouses police clearance certificate.
