HI Nirmal ,

I had sent a Pvt message please respond and check your inbox
I want to call or talk personally ,.. thanks

Ahhh don't remind the hard work we all have put to collect the documents, the money spent @ various institutions, learning IELTS format, driving far locations to collect transcripts, running around HR for job duties and finally to deliver the package to CIC.. ufff what 15-20 those were..

Anyway, if your CC is not charged yet, then just call CIC and ask for the status. As you are mentioned that your file was a heavy file (may be complex too), CIC may be taking extra time to evaluate it. The process is FIFO, so don't worry your file will be date received stamped. Complexity of the file may be one of the reasons your CC is not charged yet. God forbid the other reason.

I like your last statement - BE POSITIVE..

Hi buddy,
How can I find my uci from previous visitors visa application? I have not received anything from cic except my stamped passport back then... :
Thanks!

I checked my application status on following site using UCI which I received for my visitor's visa. I received this UCI after I filed for FSW-13. Basically they used same UCI for my FSW13 application.

https://services3.cic.gc.ca/ecas/authenticate.do?app=ecas

It says that my application for Permanent Residence Application Status is "in process".
It also shows when my application was received by them (8th of May).

Not a lot of information but lets see how it goes in future.

As per my understanding, Education evaluation is required only for the highest degree according to the NOC. For example if you are showing the ECA report for graduation, then you can skip the report for higher secondary education.

Appreciate your reply.

Just to understand, if I show the eca report for masters degree, can I skip the undergraduate degree (bachelors).
Or both the degrees will have to be evaluated.

Thanks again ESZB.

Now I realize what i did but still hope for good. :'(

I will update you guys as soon as i get some reply from CIC.

@ amar

Hi amit80203
I just sent u a PM......awaiting ur reply........
Please reply ASAP

 

[kewlCanada]

@ champ
Salary and benefits are important parameter for application evaluation
if your current employment is longer than a year , this might save you, btw How long have been your current employment ?

check list also says that if you cant provide a document as requested then give some supporting documents.

Hi,

I am new to this forum, just one important question. I have sent my application to CIC on 25th of june, still not reached , but my previous employer didn't mention my salary information on my experience letter and I was in hurry so I sent my application without that. :-[

Note: my current employer has mentioned my salary on my letter.

what are the chances for me, need your help guys.

Hi buddy,
How can I find my uci from previous visitors visa application? I have not received anything from cic except my stamped passport back then... :
Thanks!

Unfortunately cant help you there, I received an email from CIC for my approved visitor visa and UCI was listed there.
I am not sure from when they started using UCI, may be it is recent development.
I applied for my visitor on April, got approval in Mid May and got stamped passport in June.
Hope that helps,
Jignesh

I am claiming for 6 years experience. My NOC is 0211.
