Hi everybody,

I'm starting a new thread for the people who have submitted their PR files to Nova Scotia in July 2012. I don't see many people who have applied for PR through PNP in the month of June or July.

Please share your timelines and experiences.

Below is my time line. I applied within Canada, BC.

Application received by the BC PNP office: April 3rd 2012
AOR: 18th April
Phone Interview: Employer and Employee both on 8th May 2012
BC BNP Approval received: 24th May 2012

PR File sent to Nova Scotia : 27th June 2012.
File received on : 3rd July 2012

Havn't heard from them so far. I used a Certified Cheque don't know how can i track it whether they have cashed it or not.

My friend had applied through BC PNP as well, his credit card was charged after 6 weeks of submitting the applications, without an AOR. This is the most recent timeline for PNPs. Thats way too long, people used to receive an AOR in 6 weeks.

Anyway, all the best to everyone,

Regards,

Hi stone8198,

I am in AINP-US visa holder category and my time lines are as follows.

Nomination: March 01, 2012
Application received at CIO: May 24, 2012
Documents Request: June 25, 2012
Application re-submission to CIO: July 10, 2012 (still on the way to CIO)

I also sent them a cashier's check. You can track whether your check has already been cashed or not. For that you have to go to the bank where you purchased and request them to see the status. I did the same thing, but unfortunately my application was returned to me because of some missing documents.

Good luck to you.

Thanks,
Sarayu

I am currently employed in canada as well, we will see how it goes. hope the timeline is as quick as your friend.
Don't know if you know this or not, If you have a work permit, you should have a client ID on it, go to CIC website and check your application status using your client ID. I have something show up there before I receive my AOR.

Hi stone8198,

As I noticed now a days, usually it takes about 20 to 25 calender days to get a credit card charged. But in both our cases, we have sent a certified check. So, we might need a couple more days to know whether the check has already been en-cashed or not. Because the bank has to update their database first.

As I see, your application has been received at CIO Nova Scatia on July 3rd. I believe you have to wait at least 10 more days.

By the way, I have re-submitted my application and CIO received just yesterday.

Thanks,
Sarayu.

I am expecting a response end of this month. I just want to get done with the Medicals and travel. I have to travel for business purposes, but im stuck because if i leave and they request for medicals i will be in trouble. I would have to come back do the medicals.

In any case, it takes a lot of time nowadays.

Lets wait and see. Update me if any of you get anything.

Hi Roxanne,

I have applied under AINP program and had to fill all the form again after we got the nomination. You may visit this website to know what are the various forms to be filled in and submit to CIC.

Thanks.

Hi roxanne,

Sarayu has stated it correctly, you have to fill in all the forms. But with updated dates and other necessary documents, like police clearance certificate etc.

So make sure you attach all the documents and update the dates on the documents and make sure you check the check list. As some of the documents needed are originals. I was under the impression that police certificate can be a copy as well, but when i checked the checklist it said originals are needed. So my application was delayed just because i had to wait for the original to arrive from Dubai.

All the best and keep us posted,

regards,

Hi Roxanne...I will start by congratulating U on Ur nomination. And I see loads answers to question , I will quickly add that U work strictly with the checklist , submit copies where necessary n originals when required.Ensure U sign and date all Ur application forms, and make copies of all Ur documents.
