<<<<<<<APRIL 2010 Applicants >>>>>>>

[jol]

It has really a loongggggggggggg wait for the MR. All the future options are on hold cos of this.Good opportunities r coming professionally but have to think and think think to accept those.It is veryyyyyyyy painfull..If the answer is negative den again have to start from scratch.....God help us

True, it's hardcore fact.\

 

[jol]

I dont think I can wait for such a long period of time... if the MR comes by june then it ok otherwise I will not consider the Canada option...

In fact we had already started working on other plans and now my husband is applying to major b schools in europe.. if he gets accepted there then we will of course pursue that course of action...

Sapana

If u decide for second option, l will suggest u before opting that do strong follow for ur case with CHC.

Rest call is purely yours.

Sapana

It's almost one year passed away and u haven't recd. any tel interview nor any communication.

Write mail or letter for asking the status or delay with your application.

OR

Wait till the first week of July, 2011

 

[some_where_in]

Dear Sapana,

Wait atleast till July and then take decision. Just be calm and don't make any haste

 

[sapanaB]

Dear Sapana,

Waiting for such a long time is a irrecoverable pain. I will see June/July announcement. If doesn't find any thing positive then i might need to look for the alternatives. I have already got offer for MS in Italy (with funding), Germany (only tuition weaver), some other applications are decision pending. Otherwise, I will have to focus on career here or may think for applying immigration or work visa to other countries.

There is no gaurante that I wil be eligible even they took one/two/three years or more. If their quota is full for 2011 then they can easily confirm each applicant about their probable entry year after checking all background documents throughout this year. They can ask for Medical/PCC/POF again at the time of PP request in 2012/2013/... whatsoever.

Personally, I don't find any proper justification of playing hide and seek games with so many professionals.

Prince

Dear Prince,

Let me first start by congratulating you on securing offers for MS in reputed EU countries..I would strongly advise you to seriously look at those options as
IT off shoring is up and coming in these countries (and you are NOC 213). These non english speaking countries are still behind in that areas because of language problems.. So people with IT background and an understanding of the countries language (spanish, german, italian, french etc) and culture are very valuable there..

In fact many Indian IT companies are conducting spl courses for these languages are preparing people to act as cultural bridges.. Also an opportunity for higher education is not something that comes quite frequently...

If i have to give my example I already have a masters degree and so does my husband and he is now trying for second masters degree (MBA)
from a reputed eu b school like insead or imd.

all the best in whatever decision you make..

Hi DBC, jol and somewherein

Thanks for your kind advice and words of encouragement...

I am not going to withdraw my application tomorrow I will of course consider the pros and cons of the situation before coming to a conclusion and also I will take advice from dear forum members like you as well.

At the same time i am just stressing the fact that I can not put my life on hold for indefinite period of time.. i am weighing the opportunities and working on a few of them simultaneously whichever clicks, i am going to accept or reject it according to the situation then..

Sapana

 

[OmSai73]

Just give 2 to 3 months time and see, i would say you will see positive results.

How Canada’s Election May Affect Canadian Immigration

On May 2, 2011 Canadian citizens will be casting their vote in an election to either re-elect the governing Conservatives, or to elect a new party and Prime Minister. The outcome of this election may have important implications for Canadian immigration.

Canada has five major parties running for election. While many parties agree on certain issues, such as the need to improve the efficiency of the immigration system, they each have their own views on what changes need to be made to Canada’s immigration system. The following are some promises made by each party during the election campaign:

Conservatives

If re-elected, the Conservatives have promised to:

Get tougher on human smuggling;
Streamline the process for deporting foreign criminals;
Impose a two year conditional Canadian permanent resident status for applicants who are sponsored by a spouse or common-law partner and who have been in that relationship for less than two years; and
Have foreign credentials recognized in Canada faster and more easily.
Liberals

If elected, the Liberals have promised to:

Reduce wait times for immigration applications and increase efficiency of the current Canadian immigration system;
Increase the number of visas that are issued in the Family Class Category;
Increase federal funding for language training programs in Canada for those wanting to improve their English or French proficiency; and
Improve the system of recognizing foreign credentials in Canada.
NDP

If elected, the National Democratic Party has promised to:

Improve immigration wait times and fast-track family reunification;
Reduce the backlog of applications at the visa offices;
Develop better procedures and appeals for those applying for visitor visas;
Accelerate the recognition of foreign credentials in Canada;
Reinstate federal funding for immigrant settlement agencies, especially those cut in Ontario;
Implement the “Once in a Lifetime Act” which would allow Canadians a one-time opportunity to sponsor a relative who is not a member of the family class to come to Canada; and
Ensure tough laws against crooked consultants are enforced.
Green Party

If elected, the Green Party promises to:

Allocate greater funding for language training programs in English and French in Canada;
Establish a program for people living in Canada without official status that will lead to full landed immigrant status;
Improve the integration of newcomers into Canadian society;
Toughen and enforce regulations governing the practice of immigration consultants; and
Amend the Anti-Terrorism Act and the Public Safety Act so that formal charges can be brought against all those detained.
Parti Quebecois

Throughout the election campaign, the Parti Quebecois have been fairly quiet on issues regarding immigration. They recently released a document which proposes several changes to their own immigration programs within the province of Quebec (full story can be found here); however they have not discussed changes they would make to federal immigration policies.

The 2011 election is important to potential immigrants and Canadians alike as a new government can mean changes to current immigration policies, but whether all of these promises will actually be kept remains to be seen

Ibitayo,

when I say May 2010 I am talking about submission of full documents to ND VO and not initial application to CIO.

even with that the time line stands that he got his MR almost a year after his full docs. And this is what is a worrying thing for all of us..

Sapana
