Hello everyone! I am new and I am just starting my application for QSW. I am on the stage of gathering needed documents and reading everything about Quebec; from the application process and the diversity of Quebec culture and living. I really enjoyed reading posts from this topic and I must say I am very much inspired at how members successfully acquired their visa on their own efforts. I hope to see more posts from other aspiring immigrants like me as they go through each step. And I wish to hear from members who are now in Quebec. How are you all there?

Just curious...

Anyone here who, submitted their documents right after the new rules have been implented (August 2013) got their AOR already?

I really wanna know the time frame.. Waiting is never easy. As we all know, most would definitely say around 1.5-2 years time. But I'm still hoping the Quebec government would speed up the processing since they're in need of skilled immigrants. Also, 2 years is still quite a long time, especially for nurses like me, (it's like we can still apply somewhere overseas while waiting for Quebec, but then we couldn't because what if, by any miracle, we got selected for QSW?) Ugh, kinda frustrating, haha. C'mon prayer warriors! We can do this!!

P.S. Your two cents? ;)

To all Credit Card payment users...

ask your bank to allow the transaction coming from Quebec, Canada your bank might block it and QSW will return your application.
