I studied using clickonfrench as well ... So, the best thing to take would be your payment receipt and you can print out some stats that shows how many hours you studied and how much time you spent on a particular area(vocab, pronounciation etc.)..So, print all those!!! The interviewer will manually assess your French at the time of interview by asking some questions in French anyways but taking all these wont hurt!!

You dont need to take the copy of your application because you already sent it and they have the original one!!
Thank You. I found it little 'odd' to print out all those pages ;D ! So that's why I asked.

When your wife brings more points a PA then it is always better that she applies as PA. but remember that when she becomes PA then you can't enter to Quebec as long as she doesn't, that is the rule that PA should enter first and Accompanied applicants can enter with the PA or can join him or later.

goodluck

Hello All,

I am very happy to let you all know that I have finally mailed out my application package today :D. My BIQ is the Montreal office. I guess the application will be received by the office sometime mid next week.

Now, at the same time, I have a bad news(atleast for me). I just went through al the documents that I sent (I had photocopied everything) and realized that I have made a mistake in section 9 of the form. The section asks for emplyment details of the last 5 years. I did not include my 2004-2005 experience in this section BUT I made a maistake and explained the principal tasks performed of this job in the column below that(job title, hours worked etc). Do you think this is a problem? I don't know how to correct it. It is totally over-sight from my end.

My family want to thank all our seniors "quebec2011,stillhope,egrace,donsoft,solokru,wings for starting this thread and the rest of the gang" who one way or another help, encourage us in this journey of obtaining our quebec dream. We are very happy to share that we finally have our csq just this morning. :D ;D

We were schedule for 9am but arrived 1hr early and 15 mins before 9 they already called us in.... Our IO was middle aged lady who was quite nice and she asked if we want the interview in french or english then my hubby who is the principal applicant answered lets try french then she started asking us in french but for some reason our mind was not working with us........ ??? guess out of 15 questions we only answered three........ during that stage we can see and feel that she was not impressed then she switch to english all the way. She asked about the common values of quebec and if we really want to settle in quebec guess she had an impression that we are not staying there as my husband has lots of uncles and his sister is in alberta that we may not stay long and moved to another province, we told her honestly that we already invested a lot and the satisfaction is far greater if we succeed on our own then she asked about our work and show all the documents then she said shes done with the interview and to give her a few minutes to calculate our points..... It seems like eternity then she finally she told us that we passed and we need to improve our french and shes hoping that we will stay in quebec as its a wonderful place and share some info about quebec and wish us luck.

And that was it......

@ quebec2011 dont worry buddy your time will come as we've meet one guy..... He was a receptionist in a hotel china and he was also called for interview so just relax and you'll be next. :D
congratulations a for your CSQ and best of luck for the federal part.

Stillhope,

how long do you think the federal process will take? I heard somewhere between 8-12 months but then I thought the entire process (CSQ + Federal) takes around 10-12 months... I applied on April 2011 for my CSQ so, 5 months has passed away already.. do I need to wait another 8-12 months now? DearSibakoti

its depends upon every visa office, from uk it is showing another 11 months to finalize the case for federal part.But i am sure they will decide within 6 months so u can check your from cic website at least u get little idea. but i am sure they will not take more then 6 months

good luck
