HAI WAYANE, INDIRA AND ANIL
I have a question. My SON passport is renewed and the passport # is new. Shall I sent new passport copy to sydney CIC OR New Delhi Visa Office? I got 1sr AOR. Is it right time to send them or is there any particulatime for passport updation.

Regards
kpkinnera

Once you have PER any updates should go to visa office, not to CIO in Sydney.

I would send a case-specific online query via your visa office's website giving them your son's new passport number.

Best of luck,
Wayne.

There is very little you can do with regards sending extra info until you hear from CIO and get your file number, since historically they do not tally documents with applications they haven't yet begun reviewing.

CIO IMO will be more interested in the duties you have performed. I'd wait until you hear from them.

Wayne.

Thanks Wyane,
I happened to read online mannuals for VO on CIC website. It states that the work experience should be full time, ie 37.5 hours/week in the NOC you are claiming points for. My job duties are well described in my reference letters but there is no mention of the time I spend at work.
I am afraid I may get no file number and an NER straight away. This is to gaurd against this possibility that I want to send additional info before someone reviews my application.
Please suggest
Thanks

Congrats victor shareen for your 2nd AOR.

I could not understand the inconsistency from New Delhi VO regarding the 2nd AOR.

Some of the applicants (Like Victor) have a different File no and some of them have the same they received in PER.

Any clue?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,

Sorry to confuse you all....my consultant made a mistake when he told me that the file number has changed...i just received the scanned copy of the letter....and my file number is still the same.... :)

Shareen

I checked with some of my friends (Pre 26th June), they got a new File number in their 2nd AOR.
Sorry to dishearten all ND VO guys, but I still believe this is not an AOR

Here is my 2nd AOR

Dear Sir,
This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada which was received at this office.
We have created a file with the file number pasted above.
Before your application can be placed in processing, a determination will be made as to whether or not you are eligible for processing. If your application is not eligible for processing, you will receive a letter informing you of the reasons for the decision as well as a refund.
Processing time
Applications for permanent residence in Canada in the category that you have applied require at least 24 months to process at this office. If you have not received any instructions from this office by the 6th month, you are requested to contact this office directly.
Interview
You will be notified of the appointment for your interview, if required, approximately one month prior to the date of the interview, and you will be provided with further instructions at that time.
Section 15 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act authorizes an officer to proceed with an examination where a person makes an application for permanent residence in Canada for the purpose of determining whether the person and all his or her accompanying family members appear to be persons who may be granted entry into Canada. To proceed with an examination, a personal interview is frequently required.
Section 16 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act states that a person who makes an application must answer truthfully all questions put to them for the purpose of the examination. If an applicant appears for the interview without all the family members as required by the officer, then the required examination cannot be completed. This means that the applicant would be found to be inadmissible to Canada as a foreign national by virtue of the fact that he or she is unable to comply with all the requirements of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act and the Regulations, following sections 11 and 41 of the Act.
Interpreters must be arranged in advance for any family members who will be interviewed and who are unable to communicate well in either of Canada’s official languages (English or French). Instructions for the provision of interpreters will be provided to you prior to your interview appointment.

Non-resident applications
If you or any of your accompanying family members are not normally resident in the area of responsibility of this office, then you should be aware that there may be additional delays in the processing of your application for permanent residence in Canada. This delay will result from the need to refer your case to the Canadian Immigration office which is responsible for the country in which you or your family members normally reside. This referral is necessary to verify any information that you have provided with your application, or for advice concerning qualifications or other matters of a local concern that should be taken into account when assessing your application.
Let us know
If there is a change in your personal circumstances, such as the birth of a child, a marriage or divorce, you have to let us know (See our contact information below.)
You must also inform us in writing of any
• Change of address, including change of e-mail address;
• Change or cancellation of immigration representative; or
• Request for withdrawal of your application.
Prepare yourself for immigration to Canada
Your application has just been received at our visa office and some months will probably pass before you know the final decision on your application. We encourage you to use these months to gather information on Canada.
One of your first steps should be to begin researching potential employment in Canada. Keep in mind that many occupations in Canada are not regulated. For those occupations, the employer is responsible for assessing and recognizing your qualifications.
However, some occupations are regulated and do not permit persons to practice without a license. To obtain a license to practice a regulated occupation, you must go through a formal assessment and an acceptance of your education and professional qualifications by a regulatory body. This assessment will compare your training, education and experience to Canadian requirements. The assessment will also help determine whether further training and evaluation may be needed before you acquire a license to practice your occupation in Canada.
In partnership with Service Canada, the Foreign Credentials Referral Office (FCRO) provides information and referrals to individuals seeking employment in Canada. You can find more information on the FCRO Web site at www.credentials.gc.ca. Clients in Canada can call 1-888-854-1805 or the Service Canada general enquiries number at 1-800-O-Canada (1-800-622-6232) for more information. Clients in Canada can also obtain in-person service at Service Canada Centers.
The Going to Canada Internet site at www.directioncanada.gc.ca contains important information about living and working in Canada as well as a “Working in Canada Tool” which will tell you what the current prospects are for your occupation across Canada. It offers information on essential skills, job descriptions, work conditions and opportunities. It will also tell you whether your occupation is a regulated profession in Canada.

Hope it helps you

There is a big hole in our spreadsheet from 15th of Nov to 30th of Nov. In fact there are only 8 people for these 15 days. Now i understand that there will be two weekends there but still, we have had days on the spreadsheet where there are 8 people on the same day (the one i submitted - 20th of sept is one of them with 8 people on one day). So dont be surprised if PER's are a bit sparse in the next few days.

Now what we also need are 2nd AOR's. Loads of them and especially from London VO.

Not sure, but imo they may have erroneously given u a pre june format.
 
@ Engy
From your second AOR mentioned below, does it mean that all applications are re-assessed for PER at VO and the PER from CIO is nothing other then eligibility to send the applications to VO ?? Atleast that is what the second AOR says ?

Seniors please comment
