Applications after 26/6 in any NOC CONNECT HERE TO GET THE STATUS

[queencougar]

hi everyone!i'm a regular visitor to this forum.i have sent my application on dec 8,2010. now, i need to email CIC. i can't read back, i tried,though, but can't find the posted email ad of the office.can anyone here share the email add of CIC where you can make queries of your application.thanks everyone!

Why do you need to contact CIO so soon after your application was sent in?
They won't be able to tell you anything - I would be surprised if they have even opened it yet! You need to wait for 10 to 12 weeks and then if you have not heard anything, e-mail them using the protocol. If you e-mail now all you will get is the standard response that says your app is currently under processing, which doesn't reveal anything about the status of your app at all.
I know it is hard (for me too!), but waiting for that length of time at least is the only way - be calm and don't waste your time on an enquiry yet.

Re: A Word About the Nurse Cap on Marc Laforce's BLOG

Dear Forum:

Allow me to reply on some of the remarks regarding our BLOG entry with respect to the nurse cap.

Public forums are fun to read but can be harsh and dead-wrong at times.

The question of police reports at the CIO stage is irrelevant as CIC advises applicants not to submit their police certificates in this stage - precisely because they have limited validity and they will expire by the time the application is forwarded to the visa post.

On whether work references need to be "recent" is not true. Experience can go back 10 years; does that mean you need a recent verification letter for a job that took place in 2004? And what if the supervisor or manager, let alone the company, is no longer in place? We submit "old" references all the time and CIC will accept them if they believe it to be accurate and truthful at the time it was signed. And don't estimate the power of providing a reasonable explanation on your cover letter as to why you're submitting a six-month verification letter in the first place.

The comment about forms is valid - but CIC generally allows for a reasonable transition period whereby an old form is accepted provided there's no policy change.

But the most critical point here for those sceptical people is this. What strategy do they have? Give up? Do nothing? One of the forum people remarked that it took many months for the cap to be reached and that the same will be true next year. Perhaps- but that was for the year the cap was introduced (in 2010). For those of you familiar with the US system, whereby a cap can be reached within days, a similar situation will exist in Canada; and that was my point in my BLOG. The fact that the nurse cap is closed now doesn't mean that all prospect clients are suddenly going to give up on their plans to file in Canada. Stock-piling applications have been a reality in many countries that have a cap system. (And Canada is new to the CAP system for this particular stream.) True, some prefer to file when they have absolute assurance about the future. And that's fine. Others, who follow the labour market closely, we'll make an assumption that the nurse profession will continue to see demand. If people begin to stock-pile applications today, and if you believe that there's a high chance that the application will be eligible next year in July 2011, then you have to assume that there's a chance that CIC will receive 1000 applications in a single day - just like USCIS received over 64,000 H-1B applications in a single day for many years (until now - true).

"Blatant scaremongering" to "drum up trade" theory. That's a harsh statement. If you read the tone of the BLOG, it is meant to reassure and calm people down. More to the point, our BLOGS are worded for the benefit of our Clients. There's no additional "trade" to win - those are our existing clients.

I say stock-pile is the way of the future (unfortunately) - it is inevitable in a cap regime.

hello everyone.

my question is related to that of crissy.

i want to send email to cic inquiring about my application status. But the problem is that i have filed the application through a consultant and he has put his email address in the application.

do i need to send inquiry from the email id in the form, and if i send the inquiry from my personal email id, will i get reply to my id or the id mentioned in the forms.

Dear Nish,
One of my friend landed in Canada also faced same problem. Nothing you have to do just now.
When you will get your file no and will be track, then you can change anything as you wish.
So have to wait till getting file number.
Best of luck
Zia

That's not exactly the truth. I am in the same situation. My app was filled by immigration consultant and only her e-mail is in app. I sent two e-mails to CIO from my private e-mail asking about the status of my application and they answered to me twice giving me the status. So you just write to them.

Would you mind sharing what the content is just so we all have an idea what to expect? thanks and congratulations again!

i mayank,

thanks for the info. but the email you mentioned is not working. I then called the number given by bindu and the person attending the call took all the information and told me to call back next day. but then i emailed on torontobranch @ sbicanada . com and i got reply within 2 hours.

the sad news is that my BD is not yet encashed. and neither my application is returned back. i have sent all the documents required and i am completely eligible for 1122, but dont know what has gone wrong. only option right now is to wait.

is there anyone whose BD was encased very very late and got PER.

Hi,

It may be beneficial for those who haven't followed this "blog" to provide a link so we can read it? Since this is your 1 and only post it doesn't appear you have mentioned this anywhere before.

Secondly, I must disagree when you say that CIO are advising applicants not to submit their police certificates. This is completely wrong.

From page 18 of the EG7.pdf guide I have just downloaded from the CIC website this morning:

"We strongly recommend that you submit your police certificates with your application to the CIO. If you are unable to obtain all the necessary police certificates, you may still send your application to the CIO without them. However, please note that if your application is placed into processing you must be ready to submit them to the visa office when requested."

How does "We strongly recommend that you submit your police certificates with your application to the CIO" translate to "CIC advises applicants not to submit their police certificates in this stage"?

It is true that the police certificates do have limited validity (one year).

CIC originally stated that police certificates must be included. Around mid August they amended this stating they should not be included.

Then in November they made a further amendment now strongly advising that they are included.

My opinion is that having seen the relatively low intake of applications they felt confident that the majority of applications would be finalised within 12 months (the length of time the police certificate is valid for). However they left including the PCC optional so as not to unfairly disadvantage applicants for whom getting a PCC is a lengthy process (can be several months in some countries), with respect to getting their applications to CIO in time to make their respective caps.

Wayne.
