Hi seniors,

This is my FOURTH time asking the same question. (I am still hopeful it will be answered).

I have a 5 month old whose passport we still haven't made. It's in the process and we will get by next week. The child is a US citizen and we have birth certificate.

Me and my spouse have almost all the documents (except for my diploma) but WES evaluation is already done.

MY QUESTION IS: DO WE NEED TO INCLUDE PASSPORT FOR THE NEW BORN IN THE APPLICATION OR IS IT SOMETHING THAT WE CAN INCLUDE LATER?

Hi, u need passport to include ur child in the process, its mandatory.
However, if u feel time is running and u can't make it, if u wait for passport.
U can make a try. Letter/Affidavit signed by u & ur wife, that u will provide passport of ur child during the process and mention target date. Provide all proof of ur child. Show the doc about ur child passport process details.
If it is convincing they will accept, Once u receive passport attach it through ur visa office.

last year applied under 2174

Looks like by the time I apply, it might get tight this year as well.

So planning to change my NOC this time 2173 can be an other option. But 2172 can also be an option for me as my company is flexible in providing my roles and responsibilities :D
 
Not sure whats wrong with Fedex for the last two days the status is IN TRANSIT. Is this the same with everyone??

All fedex/ups/dhl have problems, better to courier and leave it for 4 to 5 days w/o checking the status. Some of my friends do this. They will check at 5th day only.

Recently some shown achievement by UPS, only 3days from Mumbai to CIO.

I'm in the same situation. MS from US and B-Tech from India.

You need to know something. CIC doesn't understand non-Canadian credentials. So, CIC entirely depends on WES (or other ECA orgs) to evaluate your foreign credentials and calculate a Canadian Equivalency.

So, what you are looking for is, send your MS transcripts to WES ASAP. I did the same. So, WES now goes through your MS degree and looks at the university website where you got the degree from. If the university website (or whatever research they do) suggests that MS from that US university can only be obtained if the candidate successfully completes a 4 years Bachelor's degree, then you are in good shape. If not you might end up sending them your Indian degree too.

To summarize, if WES determines that your US masters is equivalent to Canadian Master's (Which I believe is mostly going to be true), then the assessment will say so and you will be awarded 23 for that.

WES received my Master's documents and they are reviewing them now. I'm in a little better shape compared to you, because I have my bachelor's transcripts handy just in case they request. But start the process ASAP.

thanks a lot for your help.
i paid last night. and asked my univ to send transcripts directly to WES with my reference number.
now i need to get home by next week and courier WES a copy of my diploma to them.
and i think i should be good on that front.

by the way, i didnt make use of the Academic Request Form that WES provides because my university was ready to send me transcripts to WES by online payments and request.
The Academic Request Form from WES isn't mandatory is it?

I went through WES. They will wait till they receive all transcripts from your school. So you might want to request your school to send them out ASAP.

From the look of the FSW 2014 spreadsheet, I think it will take at least 6-8 wks to fill NOC 1114. So do relax and gather all documents as best as you can. Good luck!
