Dear Respected Experts and Senior Members,

I am the resident of Abu Dhabi and have been living in UAE for last 6 years. I am still legally admitted to live and work in Abu Dhabi for 3 more years and My country of nationality is Pakistan.

As I am applying for Federal Skilled Worker Program, I have chosen the following criteria while filling up the Generic Application Form IMM0008.

Program : Economic
Category : Skilled Worker

I found a difficulty in selecting my Immigration/visa office which is the 4th Question so, I visited following URL to check where to mail my application and which one is my Immigration/Visa office to be selected.

cic.gc.ca / english / information / offices / apply-where.asp

By visiting above URL, I understood that during the fill up of my application I must select "London" as my Immigration/Visa office and then I must mail/post all my documents to "Centralized Intake Office in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada" who will then forward my application to London Office for further processing.

I would like to know whether my understanding is correct or not.

Many Thanks in Advance.

Waseem

read the application guide in the application package. there will be envelope guidance, addresses are given for courier and PO Box seperately
 
Dear waseemharoon

yes you are right. According to Guide 7000 for FSWP you need to indicate the name of the Immigration Office which serves:
1. your country of nationality, OR (in your case Pakistan)
2. the country in which you are residing, provided that you have been lawfully admitted to that country for at least one year. (UAE)

Now since all Economic class applications for Pakistan as well as UAE are dealt in London. So London is your visa office. But first you need to send your application package to the Central Intake Office in Sydney, Nova Scotia. The address is as follows:

Citizenship and Immigration Canada
Centralized Intake Office
49 Dorchester Street
Sydney, NS B1P 5Z2
Canada

Best of luck.
