If you applied as a Federal Skilled Worker on or after February 27, 2008 and before June 26, 2010 , your application will take two years or more to be processed. This is due to the fact that Canada received over 425,000 applications under this program during this period.

* Unfortunately, it will take longer to process federal skilled worker applications submitted under the first set of instructions (between February 27, 2008 and June 25, 2010) than originally projected.

* During this time, the department received applications for more than 425,000 people, and 144,000 of these have not yet received a decision.

* This number represents more than twice the number of projected admissions under the federal skilled worker program in 2011, so many of these applicants will have to wait two years or more to be processed.

Please advise your clients accordingly, thank you.

Thanks dear friend. I think this is related to one years ago and within this period many cases were be eliminated and the number of person, in all cases, decreased to about 100000. Moreover there is not any new cases in 2010 and for this reasons, I think the process will be faster as we can see many applicants in some offices got there medical , But I think unfortunately in some offices such as Dehlia and Ankara, Process is very slow and it is not fair.

Personal history has to be filled from the age of 18.

Hi Smiling Face

Medicals reports are sent from the medical officer to Visa Office directly. Medical officer won't give the report to me.

Do I have to send the landing fee separately to Visa Office after medical officer submitted the report ?

Do I have take the banker's check separately for adult members or altogether ? For example, If I have to pay the landing fee for two adults, Could I take two separate 490 CAD backer checks or only one with 980 CAD ?

Thanks

Do I have take the banker's check separately for adult members or altogether ? For example, If I have to pay the landing fee for two adults, Could I take two separate 490 CAD backer checks or only one with 980 CAD ? - NO necessity to take those individually. ONE banker's check should be perfect.

Thanks
