Hello Seniors,

I just need to know few things :-

1. Who does the eligibility test whether one is eligible is for FSW or not. If I am not worng, thats been done my nova scotia, sydney and on the basis of that we get PER and after that AOR.
Is there any chance or case where Visa Officer sitting at Visa Office has rejected the application because he/she thinks that he is not eligible even after receiving PER and AOR mail.

2. Does Visa Office has authority to check our bank statements even if we dont provide them our bank statements. Can they pull out from the Bank.?

3. Does Visa Office do Cibil Check.

I request you guys to please put some light on above queries. I will be really grateful

All the best to all the FSW applicants. I wish we all get mapple leaf on our passports.

Thanks and Regards
Singh

Hello all,

please can anyone confirm if there is still any MI 2 applicant that is yet to receive Medical request from Accra?

Hi omo Naija pls i send u a PM ...

 

[gabrilla]

hiya,

pls whats MI1, MI2 or MI3?

iya ibeji, see below the meaning of MI1, MI2 or MI3

Summary
Effective July 1, 2011, a cap of 10,000 new Foreign Skilled Worker (FSW) applications, without an offer of arranged employment, will be considered for processing each year. Within the 10,000 cap, a maximum of 500 new applications per occupation will be considered each year. Instructions are given to the field on what to do with applications received before and after this date.

Background
On June 18, 2008, the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act was amended to give the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration the authority to issue instructions that would ensure the processing of applications and requests be conducted in a manner that, in the opinion of the Minister, will best support the attainment of immigration goals set by the Government of Canada.

The first set of Ministerial Instructions (MI-1) was issued on November 29, 2008 and established that new FSW applicants would be eligible for processing only if they had experience in one or more of the identified eligible occupations; if they had arranged employment; or if they had one year of legal, in-Canada work experience and status as a temporary foreign worker or international student. Under MI-1, all FSW applications were also submitted to the Centralized Intake Office (CIO) in Sydney, Nova Scotia, for an initial eligibility review. The final determination for eligibility and selection remained with the visa office.

The second set of MI (MI-2), issued on June 26, 2010, introduced a number of changes, including a revised list of eligible occupations, annual limits on the number of new applications to be processed in the FSW class, as well as revised eligibility criteria with respect to evidence of official language proficiency and work experience. In addition, the CIO was given the authority to make final eligibility determinations.

The third set of MI (MI-3) comes into force on July 1, 2011, and applies only to applications received by the CIO on or after this date. MI-3 includes changes to the following programs:


•Federal Entrepreneur Program:
A temporary moratorium on new applications will be placed on this program

•Federal Immigrant Investor Program (IIP):
Accept of 700 new IIP applications will be considered for processing each year. In addition, as of July 1, 2011, all new federal Immigration Investor applications must be submitted to the CIO.

•Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSW):
A cap of 10,000 new FSW applications, without an offer of arranged employment, will be considered for processing each year. Within the 10,000 cap, a maximum of 500 new applications per occupation will be considered each year.

Hope it helps

@ Singh, The eligibility test is done in Nova Scotia, and after satisfied you meet up the point and requirement they collect your application fees and issues an AOR ( letter to show your application will be forwarded to the visa office representing your region). Question 1. Denial we be based on your medical result or security check. If medical is passed and there is no criminal conviction is very rear to get a visa Denial. 2. I don't think they check your bank statement. Bank statement is not among the ducument you submit to meet up the eligible points. They know if they issue your PR you must present prove of settlement funds at the point of landing . Que 3. I know know what is called Cibil check, other seniors in the forum will deal with that. Goodluck.

Please my good people, i do not mean to be jumpy or impatient but i have also been trying since 2011, u guyz are the lucky ones while people like me cnt help but tink i shd be part of pple receiving dia PPR but not to worry i'm not as desperate as my post appears.........lol. Thanks for your advise nd scolding anyways

phunrae, please don't look at it as if we are scolding you, we are only trying to assist and encourage one another especially when the whole process is so frustrating. You know we are all human beings and tends to react sometimes by voicing our feelings and it really helps to know that someone is somewhere to tell us to take it easy. So lets have fun by sharing, laughing and scolding one another while waiting for our dreams to come through.

 

[gabrilla]

Hello Seniors,
3. Does Visa Office do Cibil Check.
Thanks and Regards
Singh

Welldone pilele01 for provide answers as best as you can

2. Visa offices dont pull money out of your account but in some extreme cases they might verify your bank statements or tell you to submit an updated bank statements which is recent.

3. must have been a typo error .. i guess civil check which is done during the eligibility stage to the final approval before decision is made. It depends on how many countries you have lived in for more than 6 months at a time and also if you have no convictions or issues with police or constituted authorities in those countries .

Cheers and hope this helps
