Medical records are sent directly by the clinic we went to in Dubai. Be sure to carry your passport for identification and 4 PP pix. Look your best as they will take a pic as well. LOL. I received the notification for medical on email, but a letter arrived a couple of days later asking for a current date Police Clearance certificate from UAE and a fees of CAD 480 each for me and spouse. Waiting with bated breath for further action.

hi
when did you receive the letter(or email??) for current date police clearance and for CAD 480 each? is that after medical examination done ? bcoz we have not received any such requirement so far.

thanks for your reply; we thought of landing Calgary in may 14. my wife and two daughters with me... my wife is PA seeking for better career in pharma marketing and myself looking for logistics/purchase/inventory jobs that I have more than 12 years experienced in Dubai with MBA logistics..

please provide your Skype id or contact number it will be easy to contact you..

I strongly advise you not to join any company for six months for saving money. Especially in Dubai.
Living cost is very high and life is not that easy as it looks...Too many procedures....

However if you want to join here then better you do landing in Canada first and give address of your relative/friend in Canada for the PR Cards.

Then come to Dubai for at least two years to save something and still I don't know your family size !!
I am in UAE now almost 13 years and can guide you on living cost and problems
You can call me on skype if I can be helpful to assist you further in details.

In your case, after the Medical did you have to submit the fees and/or Police Clearance from the UAE ?

Going by what I read on the forum and elsewhere, each case is unique and there are a number of factors that are considered, including nationality of origin. Some cases have been asked for their passports within a month of medical while some have had to wait for much longer. The only thing that will probably help is PATIENCE as we don't have any control over the process. I've waited since 2010 after application so a couple of months more won't hurt.

First of all, I congratulate you for getting Canadian PR.
It would be great if you continue to share your ideas/decisions for settlement -

i.e whats ur profession, which province have u selected for settlement, how would you deal with all the stuff in Dubai (whether u will sell it or ship it to canada), how will you find your accomodation..

I feel, this would be great for all of us.

Regards
Rahul Dutta

Thanks Rahul

Sure i will share whenever i make a decision and when i am free...i am an architect by profession and gathering information but still confused + life is very busy here.

Hi,

Hi,

Background checks do confuse a lot of new members, who are trying to predict their timelines on the experiences of seniors.

Please understand that there is no hard on fast to rule to when background checks are started/completed. Some members receive their medical requests after background checks are completed (this usually means, passport request will follow in a month's time), other members have their background checks start after medicals are completed (this usually means a longer waiting period, sometimes over one year).

Background checks are related to your safe inclusion into Canada (i.e. you are not a security risk to Canada), experience verification is already completed before background checks start and there won't be any verification calls at this stage (unless there is some suspicion of you being fired from that job as you were a threat to others around you).

how do you apply by your self from dubai ?

Thank you Allah! I received this by email yesterday ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I would like also to thank all members of this forum, without your valuable topic and responses, this would never happened. I applied without a "immigration consultant" and I advice all new members who are interested in immigration to do the same. Moreover, I would like to ask, How can I create a timeline in my profile?
