Re: (No subject)

@ Applicante.ph, pls note that BiQs are less concernd abt d classes one claim to av attended. They are only interestd in d knowlege u av gained & one of d ways they can do this is u providing them wit any of their std test result. Completn / enrollment certificate is just a means of buying time b4 one submit a rsult.they cant awrd mark based on those. 2) were u to av had ur university educatn taught in french, then ur degree certificate would av workd as a two-hedged sword both for educatn & french skills. 3) well u may say " am gonna shw them my stuff @ d interview. I say yeah, u will but what now happens if ur case needed to b awarded point for french b4 u can even make d cut for an interview? Cos points ll nt b awarded based on completn/enrollment certificate. 4) it's only those on d PRIORITY LIST that can effectively circumvent the french stuff & stil b fine but then they ll av to go 2ru d interview which normally shld av been waived for them & this is like their punishment for defauting & it slows down their timeframe. 5) if during d internship, u worked up to 30 hours or more per week, then it ll b regarded as a full-time job by ur BiQ But if u had less than 30hrs per week,d xperience ll b regarded as part-time, this is aw BIQ ll convert it : number of hour per week/30 multiply by total duration of part-time employmnt in month. Ur answer ll now b d nos of xperience dat ll b used in grading u.

bonjour lucky senior members. i am ready to submit my application, for the documents to prove my work experience, do i still need to provide the records of my monthly contribution like social security contributions. or is it enough to submit work certificates and contracts? thanks for your proffessional advice.

You will definitely need to show your record of the Monthly Contribution which could either be Pension Fund contribution or Social Security Contributions as the case may be in your country. It is very importatnt as this is an evidence to really show that you have the level of the claimed work experience. We were asked this during our interview and thank God we had something to show that.

thanks for the reply @egrace...

is there a possibility that interview will be waived? or the minister will not conduct interview? if so what are the chances or criteria of getting this case?

with regards to my internship.. we actually do not have specific length of time but rather we only have total number of hours... but were completed upon graduation...do u have any idea on how to work on this for me to include my internship in my experiences..
merci beaucoup!!

thanks abehola. fortunately i got it just today with 64 months of social security contributions.I think all is set. God Bless Me. :

That is great, now you can waste no more time and send your application in. with the number of months of contribution you should have well over 5 years of experience.

Bonne Chance!

Hello all,

Just a word of advice to those awaiting interview, try to dress formal and wear nice smiles throughout the entire process and you can achieve this by resting well the night before the interview. Also, if you still have the time try to brush up your french and ensure you make the interviewer see the efforts you are putting into improving yourself on the language.

All the best to you all.

Hello all,

Here is a detailed brief of how the interview went.
We got to the embassy about 30 minutes before the time and we were called in 10 minutes before and we were interviewed by a man. He was polite and helpful ensuring we were not in anyway tensed. he greeted us in French and we responded after which he gave us some background information on the outcome of the interview telling us in case we were not successful that we have the right to as for a review and so on and so forth (all in French). He then started, asked for my wife's original degree certificates (in French) he checked it with the copies we sent with our application taking note of all the details in the application form as well. He later asked for her work related documents which he checked and made some comments which we promptly explained. Then he came to the point of testing our French and this was actually the most difficult part as our French is next to zero we made some efforts and he was done with my wife. all this while he was busy consulting some documents probably to ascertain the appropriate points to award. It then came to my turn and all he was concerned with was my academic credentials and my French. at this point I knew we would be accepted as I kept spying at the points he was making on his workbook before entering it into the system. Finally he said You Have been accepted and this is largely because of the Priority of my wife's course and the extra point our baby gave us. All in all it was an experience and we were grateful to God and all the help from this forum. All in all the interview lasted almost an hour and he then printed two copies of the Certificate for us explaining some details and pointing out the Priority treatment Comment on the certificate. He further said the certificate is valid for 3 years. He gave us the preparing for Quebec guide and bid us all the best in our Federal application.
I wish all awaiting Interview or CSQ all the best.

Congratulations!, this is great news! I have one quick question - what did you put in the form for your and your spouse's french level and did you have any certifications supporting it?

Thanks
Harsha

Hello Harsha,

We were both beginners and we simply selected the beginners level 2 on the form. We did not have any certifications to support that other than a copy of our registration card with Alliance Francaise. The french language assessment was entirely based on the interview.
Just as I said earlier, all you need to show is that you are really putting an effort into learning the language and you'll be fine but keep learning as this will go a long way in making you comfortable.

Best of luck.
