Thanks mead, But i did not find any information about what is the benefit of having CAQ ? Does it increase the chances of visa acceptance ?mead said:
In a way, yes.
Quebec selects their own immigrants. If you are issued a CAQ, Canada is only responsible for checking your financial capacity. You usually cant be refused for other reasons.
If you are already in Canada and renewing your permit, Quebec will evaluate your financial capacity as well.

Thanks Josh21 for this information , +1 for you. This system is much better i think. How much time CIC will take to make decision about my file ? DO you think getting CAQ is easier than visa ?Josh21 said:
My profile
Bachelor in Computer Application ( 62% - 8 backlogs )
Master in Information Technology ( 76% - No Backlog )
IELTS : 6.5 Bands ( not less than 6.0 in any module )
How much are chance of getting approved to issue CAQ ? I already have one rejection in Sep,2013 for this reason your proposed program is not relevent in the light of past studies. Now I will be applying for Master program which is relevant
Keep in mind that CIC can still refuse you if they have believe you are a potential immigrant or pose a risk of overstaying since that's a federal problem.
Since you are applying several times in different provinces, they may suspect this. Quebec has no control over such decisions.
You are almost surely guaranteed a CAQ if you apply to a legitimate institution in Quebec.

- I'm devastated, studying in Quebec is way too expensive, and they just have strengthen the requirements. I mean, they now ask for the finances of the whole time of your stay. It is almost impossible!!! whereas The Government of Canada just concerns about the first year of your finances overall....
This Financial capacity requirement in order to receive the CAQ worries me:- Have the financial capacity to cover:
- Tuition fees
- Living expenses for the duration of your stay
- Have the financial capacity to cover:
- They included the information that it must satisfy the whole completion of your studies, if it for two years:
For one person age 18 or older $13,134x2
+ tuition fees for the two years of studies
- I did really wanted to pursue my engineering degree in the Politechnique de Quebec, but I really do not possess the budget for those 2 years of my Master + 2 living costs they require in order to give you the CAQ :/
