QSW 2013 APPLICANTS,LETS NETWORK N SHARE TIMELINES!

You can claim points even if your previous occupation wasn't related to the area of training. The points are awarded solely based on the period of time you worked. To prove the legality of work the tax receipt or social security contributions are required. If you were tax exempt I suppose that you can provide the proof of it and that should suffice.

Ievgen,

Thank you so much! You are always a great help

There are only two things I could think of why they returned your application: perhaps you actually did not reach the 49 points or you did not send a certificate of enrollment in French in your application. From what I know, they would not return an application that has enough points to qualify for an interview despite not having French points. Also, when I submitted my application, my agent/intermediary told me to enroll in French and request for a certificate of enrollment.

With the retro-active application of rules that were published on August 1, more than likely they will apply the new rules to you. I think it is important that you continue learning French because it is the only way to prove that you are sincerely interested in settling in Quebec. Although the customer service agent from Montreal whom I've spoken with stated that French skills are not mandatory (although attaining 49 or 57 points is mandatory), I genuinely believe that they want to protect their culture and their language, so they will be more interested in applicants who are exerting the effort to learn their language than on those who are not; and given the situation wherein they will have to choose between an applicant without French skills and an applicant with French skills, they will choose the one with the French skills over the other without the French skills even if both have the same qualifications.

If you have achieved at least 49 or 57 points without the French skills, then no, French skills are not mandatory. Although having one will clearly show that you are genuinely interested in Quebec and will not use it as a back door to Canada. In order to get points for French, you must score at least a B2. If you already have 39 points (for single) and have a B1 level of French, you can submit your application but you have 18 months in order to get to B2 level and gain at least 49 points. (http://translate.google.com.ph/translate?sl=fr&tl=en&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http://www2.publicationsduquebec.gouv.qc.ca/dynamicSearch/telecharge.php%3Ftype%3D7%26gpiType%3DN%26file%3DNPI2013-016.pdf%26eoq%3D36870). Hope this helps.

For single applicant, I think its 49 points to pre-qualify and 55 points to qualify for QSW. So if you have 49 points, you could get the remaining 6points from the interview, and if you got 55+, your interview is waived.

correct me if im wrong

If you have not yet submitted your application, you will not be able to get any points at all because only B2 level gets points, but with B1 level you can submit your application if you have 39 (single) or 43 (married) points and be qualified for Francization. In Francization, they will accept your application and you will be given 12 months to attain B2 level French.

If you already have 49 (single) or 57 (married) points without the French language, you can already submit your application. French language is not mandatory for as long as you have 49 or 57 points, but it sure does help in showing the immigration officer that you are interested in staying in Quebec.

Just followed up in Montreal BIQ, and the agent said my file is not yet opened. He said usually 4-6 months but I am hearing a lot of people who submitted last June they already have file number. I wish I can have mine already so I can submit my other documents.

I will try to call them again first week of October hopefully to get an answer from them.

;D

Hi beautiful-carla,
If you are single without spouse/kids all you have to agree that you have is CAD 2,924.

Montreal BIQ means Bureau D'Immigration Quebec de Montreal, in English, Quebec Immigration Office of Montreal.

Hi Stylove

I can see you are very proficient in French with B1 & C1. Give me few tricks to learn French easily/effectively to get B2. I'm only attending B1 (i.e. at Alliance Francaise) level course, which leads to DELF B1 after 18 months :-\

Thank you.

Thank you.

If at all I have any tricks, then they might be these:

First thing I'll advice you to do is to try to get some friends who speak French and always try to communicate with them on daily basis.

With or without the first point, always try to watch French movies with English subtitles or vice versa.

Watch TV5monde regularly for they have excellent "Quebec" french which is exactly what is needed.

Continue with your french classes at the Alliance seriously.

Always go to www.tv5.org for free TCFQ practice exams, which mimics what you'll find during the exam.

Good luck.

Stylove
