Guys ..........

Cairo VO has broken its silence today, they have sent me an email to pay extra fees for the PR VISA according to the change in CAD rate to EGP ...

Although the amount of money is not small, but the relief that came from hearing news from the VO wiped the sorrow for the money away

I have heard some applicants have sent their FBI certificates, before being asked, with success. I am planning to send mine before they expire this time. I'm thinking you have nothing to lose, if they ask for them again, you get new ones...

Just my opinion,
Cam

As indicated in their guidelines, we are STRONGLY encouraged to send the police certificates along wiht our application for post June 26, 2010 applicants. If however we cannot sent one, we should be able to provide once we are asked. The more complete our application package sent the faster it will be processed.

 

[kpkinnera]

I sent case specific to NDVO last 4 days back by mail,Fax,online. No reply from ND VO. Too much tension .



Thanks and Regards
Pavan

 

[Dr.Hasib]

have u sent any email to CHC ND regarding delay in sending MR,,,?

my VO is Singapore.
it has become very common for SGVO applicants to wait for a long time to get MR
SGVO dont even bother to reply any case specific enquiry.
So, i would prefer to visit singapore VO physically & have a chat with some stupid SGVO employess rather than sending email

regards,
Dr.Hasib

APOLOGIES TO MAJORHELL FOR RELEASING THIS INFORMATION FIRST

CONGRATULATIONS TO MAJORHELL

About an Hour ago Majorhell appeared for the Interview and passed with flying colors(in this case his MR & PPR are on their way)

 

[queencougar]

OK, here is the long awaited reply to the e-mail sent to Mr Kenney the Immigration Minister.

Dear Mr queencougar:

I am replying to your e-mail of April 24, 2011, addressed to the Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism, concerning your Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) application.

Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) is constantly looking to improve immigration policies and regulations. With regard to the Skilled Worker Program, a new set of Ministerial Instructions was introduced on June 26, 2010. These instructions provide a number of changes that will best support the attainment of the immigration goals established by the Government of Canada. The eligibility criteria for FSW applications can be found on the CIC Web site at www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-who-instructions.asp.

The Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) gives Canadian visa officers abroad, who have been appropriately designated, the authority to review applications for permanent residence and to accept or reject them, based on review criteria outlined in the Act and its accompanying Regulations. These officials are trained in the review and assessment of this type of application.

Under IRPA, Skilled Worker applicants are assessed on their potential ability to establish economically based on their broad set of skills. This approach ensures that immigrants have greater flexibility in terms of finding work in Canada.

Anyone may apply in the Skilled Worker Class, as long as they meet the minimum requirement, which is having at least one year of work experience in a skilled occupation within the past 10 years. Applicants have to earn enough points in the six selection factors to meet the pass mark of 67. Considered important by stakeholders, the selection factors are: education, official language ability, number of years of work experience in a skilled occupation, age, arranged employment and adaptability.

We realize that those who have submitted their applications look forward to being granted permanent resident status within a reasonable waiting period after applying. Please be assured that we make every effort to deal with the applications we receive in the most efficient and effective manner.

Our records indicate that your application was received on September 7, 2010. However, there is no processing time listed for the London visa office for FSW applications submitted after February 28, 2008. Likewise, the CIC Web site does not list historical processing times for FSW applications received after June 26, 2010, as there is insufficient final decision data at this time. However, historical data for applications received between November 28, 2008, and June 25, 2010, indicates that 80% of files are completed within 13 months. As your file still falls well within that timeframe, it would be premature to ask for expedited processing or Ministerial intervention where a case has not been active beyond the time normally needed to process a file at the office involved.

I have noted your request for the expedited processing of FSW applications for persons already employed in Canada as a Temporary Foreign Worker. However, it is important to understand that applications are processed in the order in which they are received. Procedural fairness dictates that it is not possible to process one person’s application ahead of those who have applied before them.

Thank you for writing and expressing your concerns. I trust that this information is of assistance.


S. Charbonneau
Ministerial Enquiries Division

Just for the record, we did not ask for our case to be expedited - that is their interpretation of the reason for the letter, I think. All our comments related directly to the speed (or the opposite!) of FSW processing at London, reference to the Tracker, the lack of order to the processing and following that the awful situation that exists for Cat 2s on TWP and their employers when processing extends beyond a year.
As you can see, most of the letter is made up of just repeating the FSW requirements, which we already are well aware of, thank you! No reference was made to the points we put forward about the London Office being significantly behind the rest of the world in their processing of FSW applications and the evidence we presented for that. Regarding the evidence from our Tracker that processing is taking place out of order of receipt at London and elsewhere - they just keep repeating what we know to be untrue, which is that they are done in order of receipt.
So, sorry guys. We tried!
Has anyone else received a response from their e-mail?

JUST NOW JUST NOW JUST NOW

I have two things updated in my case just now. Firstly, I had an email from the embassy saying : "Dear Sir,

This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada.

We are pleased to inform you that your immigrant visa has been issued. It will be sent to your mailing address within the coming few days through DHL based on cash on delivery system; which means that you will have to pay the courier delivery charges directly to the DHL representative.

Your DHL tracking number is: #########

Wishing you all the best of luck in Canada " Huraaaaaaaaaaaaaay ;D

Ofcourse after recieving such marvelous news, I had to log in to e-cas to find my current status and it says :
DECISION MADE

We received your application for permanent residence on September 10, 2010.

We reviewed your application and sent you a letter on January 6, 2011. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.

Your application was reviewed and we started processing on March 7, 2011.

Medical results have been received.

A decision has been made on your application. The office will contact you concerning this decision.

I can not express my feelings of success, happiness, joy, more ambition, enthusiasm, curiosity about the future and my career in canada. It is like winning a battle that started for me in person in 2007 with an old application and some hard licensing exams that needs canadian expierence and a status in canada to be able to go through the career. Now is time to gather the coloury crops of an old cultivated seed that gave me lots of hard time to be able to see its growth over the ground surface All I have to do now is to study for the coming challenge and wait for my sweet passport coming with such a visa

All my deep wishes, prayers and support for everyone here to catch their dreams with a promising future isA in canada
