However you should know that the new rules will not apply to you depending on certain conditions
Read below for these conditions, everything is explained on the Quebec Website
Immigration Rules and Procedures in effect since August 1, 2013
1. I submitted an immigration application under the Regular Skilled Worker Program. How do I know if the new measures apply to me?
The new measures apply to you if, by August 1, 2013, you received one of the following documents from the Ministère:
an acknowledgement confirming that your file has been opened and the fees received;
an acknowledgement as well as a letter asking you to provide missing documents or conforming documents in order to process your application.
If, on August 1, 2013, you were in one of the situations described below, it means that your file has already being processed. Therefore, the new measures do not apply to you.
You were convened to a selection interview that will take place in the next few weeks or months;
You received a letter entitled “Demande en attente d'entrevue de selection” (application pending a selection interview) informing you that the initial evaluation of your application is complete and that you will soon be convened to an interview;
You received a letter entitled “Demande en attente de decision” (application pending a decision) informing you that we will contact you once a decision has been made;
You received a letter entitled “Intention de refus” (intent to refuse the application), informing you that you must submit other documents or information that will allow us to continue to review your file;
You have already had a selection interview and your file has not been finalized.
Do you fall under these categories MKSHAH?
