Hi signalmaker,
Of course there is always the "why do you want to move to Quebec?" others I can remember are
Can you name some specific Quebec companies and what they do?
What do you know about your job area in Quebec?
Do you have any friends or family in Quebec?
Describe to me your immigration plan
What can you tell me about the common values of Quebec?

There were questions about my current work of course, somewhere along the lines of
Do you think you are competent worker? Give me some supporting scenarios

I was nervous during the interview and before I knew it, it was over
So I don't remember much of any other questions. All in all I tried
To do a lot of talking In response to the questions to show I have done my research
And that I will be contributing positively to the Quebec society.
I made mention of some other things I have researched even if no question was asked on it.

I was fortunate enough to have a polite and gentle person for my interview as I have heard there are some
Cases where the interviewers are a bit harsh.
thank you so much ! that was so helpful ..

please if you remembered some more questions, send them to my inbox, or even put them here to let us read ..

thanks again and good luck !! :))))

hi to all,

i am Jacob and i applied my file to Quebec in 16th July, 2013.

Unfortunately my file was returned on 10th Oct, 2013 that reason was "missing document of lanaguage test result".
But i've perfectly prepared my file and attached my TCF and IELTS documents. So i'd phoned to Quebec Immigration Office and explained this happening~, what the office said was that return all the file again i'd sent and they will process again with date of they recieved my file at first(?).

I dont think this happens usually, but really disspointed about this mistake from Immigartion Office.

I have no idea that my file gunna be evaluated with new rules or not (?)
Give me some advice~

Hi All,
I have been reading this thread silently for a few months now and have benefited from the feedback on here so I have decided to share my experience for others benefit

My location: Jamaica
Applied: June 2011
AOT: Computer Science
Office where application submitted: Mexico
File Number Recieved: July 2011
Level of French at time of application: Novice
French Level indicated on application: 3 (which I think corresponded to A2)

I got a request for updated documents in February 2013, I guess because some of my docs were submitted as notarized copies which was ok at time of submission. There were some changes in rules however which required certain documents to be certified as copies from the issuing institution so I had to get those redone. In addition I had submitted DELF A2 certificate as I had done the exam in June 2012 but did not get certificate until Dec 2012 and some complications prevented me from sending the cert at that time.

Placed on waiting list in May 2013.
Email received on Sept 13 2013 with proposed interview date Nov 13 2013. Interview date accepted
Interview location: Jamaica

My entire interview was in French, which lasted about 1 hour. I was able to manage because I had been doing french classes on and off at Alliance Francaise since July 2011 and by the interview I would say I was probably at the B1 level. I got a list of possible interview questions from this thread (page 89) which helped and I also had mock interview assistance from consultant.

Thankfully I was successful and now its on to the next phase.
Congratulations and thank you for sharing! All the best with the federal stage.

Hi to all,

just i want to make sure regarding the claim of 3 points for the family member in Canada.

my brother in law (brother of my wife) he's a permanent resident in Montreal, can i claim 3 points or not especially that in the evaluation for QSW they mention"Est-ce que vous ou votre époux ou conjoint de fait avez un parent au Québec qui est citoyen canadien ou résident permanent ?"
if you or your spouse has family in Quebec.

please expert i need your advice.

Jimmy.
