CHC will not know and it is not required to inform them. If they have any doubts about your finances, they may ask for more proof, e.g. bank statements for 6 months to determine where the money has come from. In my opinion, do not inform CHC if you are just transferring money or changing...

Have you already applied or are about to apply? If you have not yet applied, you should attach the letter with your application under the "Arranged Employment" category. If you had already applied under FSW programme and have now got an offer letter, then you can send the letter to them to...

Do it yourself !!! Even if you hire a lawyer, you have to do all the legwork and get all the documents ready. The forms are not difficult to fill out. You may need to spend 1-2 months reading all the initial documents and asking questions on the forum. After that it is easy. Also note that a...

Hi Ahmad, As others have said you don't send your PP to Canada, but to the visa office where you applied. However, note that for most countries, you cannot mail your passport across the border.

To build your credit score, get a secure credit card when you arrive here and do not allow Banks/Retailers talk you into applying for free credit cards (at least for the first 6 months) since those applications will be rejected and will then end up hurting your credit score.

Whatever plan you go for, ensure that you get unlimited free incoming calls. Else you will be paying a huge amount for telemarketing/unwanted calls. Depending on what you are looking for, you may find a suitable plan. E.g. Fido has a 30 dollar plan with unlimited incoming, sms including...

I have a bit of experience applying for LMO and AFAIK, they will not allow unskilled jobs on LMO. You have to prove that you really cannot find a Canadian skilled enough to fill the job and that the job is beneficial to the Canadian economy. You also have to show how the foreign worker will...

No you cannot do the medical in advance, as you need to take the Medical application forms that CHC will send you and submit them to the doctor. Without those forms, the doctor will not be able to do your medicals.

Thanks a lot for your response.

Yes, it is useful, even when applying for jobs. The job agencies ask you for your credential evaluations. You can also do your evaluation from ICAS instead of WES. WES has very stringent standards for document submission. They require university transcripts stamped by the Controller of...

Mitali, Mato, Wilson, Thank you very much for your help and encouragement. Regards, Chris

Thanks. Were you allowed to submit your passport to the consulate in UK? did you have to travel back to Australia or can you ask for your passport submission to be done at the nearest visa office?

Correction in my original Question - Do you think it is ok to send my passports to India while I am in Canada. Do I have any other option besides having to travel back to India to submit my passports?

Thanks Wilson. Do you know what the usual length of time is that the consulate keeps the passports. I mean if I have to take leave and travel back to India, I would need to know how long I'll have to stay there. Is it days, weeks or months? :)

Hi Friends, I am currently working in Canada. When I sent my application to the CIO, I was in the country for 7 months and was scheduled to leave just before I completed 1 year here. Hence the CIO asked me to send my application to New Delhi (as I had not completed 1 year in Canada yet)...
