FSW 2014 Applicants Timeline- Lets Network Here.

[CanOl]

Hello,

Thanks for the advise. Appreciate for the taking the time out. Actually even i had thought of the same thing. The reason I wanted to get the passport renewed in home town is:

1) It is relatively cheaper to get it done here. Rs 1500 normal processing and Rs 3000 Tatkal(priority) processing
the details as per Indian commission canada(Fee $ 76/- + $2 Consular surcharge (for a 36-page booklet) + BLS C$ 7.40 including tax), that comes to approx Rs 5000

2) If I do it in Canada, I would have canada address on bio pages. Now in India if we have investments we need to submit KYC regulary. Passport is a good document for address proof. There are others but passport is universally accepted.

I understand that once I land and apply for PR card, that is the master document. I just need to know from seniors that will we be able to travel to canada with a renewed passport and visa on the old passport for the first time.

Thanks again for the advise.

First and foremost you can't reissue passport more than 1 year in advance. So just forget it.

Hey CanOl,

I need a quick suggestion here..... I applied for NOC 1111 Financial Auditor) FSW 2014 though my profile matched more with 1112 (Financial Analyst).......

I convinced my employer to give a ref letter for Financial auditor since Financial Analyst met the Cap....

NOW the express entry and PNP is open.... DO YOU RECOMMEND that I should apply with the originally indented NOC (1112) or I should forget about it as sooner or later CIC might find that I have applied with different REF letters and NOC's and shut me up stating the case of misrepresentation.

(my FSW 2014 app was received on 06 OCT and still haven't heard anything, hence want to explore other options)

Thanks

it means background check has started. But once started this doesn't take much time unless there are complications.

Dear forum,

Again thank you for being an open and helpful community of FSWP applicants.
I have dispatched my medical report and my wife will be doing so in a week. What is the next step and how much time does that take?

Best wishes to everyone!

if job duties are mentioned correctly in original fsw app mentioning duties of both Noc's then it's fine. Else if the entire job duties are realigned in the new app for the same job, then cic may have issues.

Most of the July processing is thru.
DID you get a confirmation from your courier about the receipt of the parcel.
Write to CIC and enquire about your app.provide u r full name , date of birth, passport number, date of receipt and person who accepted the parcel.
they will take 50 days to respond to your mail.
u may even call their call centre and gather info

Hi People,

Please help me with the below situation. I am currently awaiting PPR from NDVO(Medicals have been received, timelines in side bar). My passport expires on 02nd Jan 2017. I have 2 years left in the validity. Now If my application is successful, I am planning to land by September 2015. That leaves me until June 2016 to renew the passport(6 months prior to expiry). I would prefer to renew the passport in the home country then doing it in canada.

Is it possible to get the visa on the existing passport post which I renew the passport. I read that the validity of the visa is one year from medicals or till passport expiry whichever is earlier. In this case will the visa on the old passport be valid. My brother had his H1B visa on an old passport and while travelling he just used to carry both the passports. Is this applicable for the canada visa too.

I do not want to get into the hassle of applying for a new passport now. For some reason if the police checks get delayed, it would simply cause a panic situation.

Advise will be appreciated

Do apply for a passport under TATKAL scheme. the police verification starts after the possession of the passport you pay double the fee but its worth it and u will receive within a week's time.
