    LANDING IN CANADA ??? -All You Need To Know.

    I'm currently working in Canada, just got my passport back along with the long-awaited PR stamp. Can I do my landing within Canada? I can't return to my original country as my employer won't give me a leave for that purpose. And I don't have a U.S. visa yet. I'm living in Surrey, BC.

    Hi canadastar, is GCMS any different than the lines that you can view on e-Cas? How much more detailed could it be? And do you know if Beijing office has implemented it yet or not? Thanks.

    Thank you Dr. Who. It seems to me that the medical examination is the particularly weak point of the whole system, that is, once you've done the medical check, you can never track where and when the results go, until suddenly a line added to you eCas. If the doctor lost your result, nobody even...

    Does anyone know how to solicit eCas notes from CIC? My case seems so strange. My VO asked me to send in Medical, Passport, RRPF and PCC altogether three months ago, and I sent it in immediately. I was thinking maybe the final decision is very near. However, since then, I have received nothing...

    Hi sha0207, nice to hear that good news! Congratulations! Did you send the result to the local visa office or to Ottawa, Canada directly? Mine is a bit weird, because I'm currently in Canada so I did my Medical Exam here and asked the doctor to send the result to Ottawa in September. But up to...

    Hi Thalia, thank you for your comment. Do you think faxing is better than emailing when it comes to contacting a local visa office? I've sent them email but didn't get anything, not even an automated reply. I'm considering sending them a fax, but only found that on their website they strongly...

    A easy question---or maybe not

    A cover letter? What is it? It is not in the checklist though, what should I put into cover letter? Should it be the same that I applied for my current job? Or should I write a new one addressed to visa officer instead of my employer? Please give me some tips here, many thanks.

    A easy question---or maybe not

    In the application I will have to provide my currently employer's official website. In my case (a mining company), only the parent company which is US based has a prominent company website. However I am actually hired by local company in Yukon and doesn't have an official website for our group...

    Help: "order of preference" on Form-Schedule 3: Economic Classes

    On Form-Schedule 3: Economic Classes, the last question (number 12) asks you to fill in your preference of work experience to be evaluated. If I had only one job, e.g. a computer manager, can I put in several job titles and NOC numbers for that one job and let Visa Officer determine which one...

    Do I have to do all the notary again for these documents? [Urgent]

    Dear Dr.Hasib, I'm not trying to challenge you, but you know, having all those documents notarized again is a lot more extra costs and waiting times. And it seems CIC only explicitly indicates that police certificates are only good for 3 month, I didn't find anywhere where it says other...

    I'm filling out "Schedule 3: Economic Classes [IMM 0008 SCHEDULE 3]". For question 11 on page 2 there are six items that allow you to fill in six different employment in your history.

    police clearance certificate query

    If I only reside in Canada and before I came Canada I had already submitted an updated police certificate to get my study permit, do I still need to request a new one just for skilled worker immigration purpose now? My study permit application was one year ago. But I really haven't gotten any...

    Do I also need to send all SUPPORTING documents directly to CIO?

    Mine is Beijing. Beijing visa office seems to have many of their own rules. Such as they demand the education diploma be verified by a new agency. That's a lot of trouble because I am not in China now. Sigh. By the way, where is EG7 located? It seems to be updated all the time. If I am working...

    Do I also need to send all SUPPORTING documents directly to CIO?

    The original ones mentioned above are in Chinese language though. Do I need to find a Canadian embassy authorized interpreter to translate them or can I translate them by myself and attach the translation to the original ones? For the University transcripts, I have already had it notarized one...
