Quebec Skilled Worker Federal Stage (After CSQ)

[ppcg2510]

My timeline is as below:
Application received april 18
Acknowledgement of receipt june 18
Started proccessing oct 18
Medical received oct 18.
anyone tell me when does the proccessing time starts? Is it from application received or acknowledgement of receipt?

Hi, wow we have a very similar timeline ! It’s when the application is received by IRCC, as calculated in the blue bar at the website when you check your application. cheers and best of luck !

My SO had the PPR email on Nov 8. He sent his prepaid envelope and documents on Nov. 11. On Nov. 23, we got an email from GCKey saying there was an update to the file. We looked, and the timeline now says: "We're done processing your application."

Under final decision, it says:

• November 22, 2019 Your application was approved. Check your messages below for details.

(there's nothing in the messages)

We are still waiting on the prepaid envelope to make its way to us with what I imagine to be the COPR. Does he need to leave the country and re-enter in that case? His country does not need a visa for entry to Canada, so they did not ask for his passport, only a copy of the ID page.

It also now shows background check and eligibility review having been completed on May 9, 2019. We had received the invitation to pre-arrival services email on May 10. This means that if you got that email, your eligibility+background check are complete, even if GCkey doesn't say so.

But note that between May 10, 2019 and September 30, 2019 (when we got the medical invitation), nothing was done on the file. Basically, it just sat there. That's almost 5 months right there... But at least between medical request and COPR: less than 2 months. So there's that.

Anyway, thought I'd share the timeline and more info, for those who are still in the process. Good luck!

Thanks for sharing and congrats on your PPR ! Hope you get the COPR very soon !!! Cheers

Hi Friends,


Need your advise.


I got the PPR email and have forwarded my passports to Abudhabi embassy and waiting for COPR.


The CSQ and PR is only for myself and my two kids. My husband is excluded as I had applied as single applicant with kids due to points shortage.


We plan to soft land by February 2020 for two weeks and come back. Now my question is :


1. When can I apply for my spouse visa (PR) after getting my PR card. Any time frame is there.

2. Is it possible to take visit visa for him by me and we all can travel to Montreal as a family and then apply for Open Work Permit for him so that family is not seperated.

3. How long does it take to get Spouse PR if I apply inland?. I know it’s a case to case basis but still need to know the approximate time.

4. We work in Middle East. Kindly advise us the best time to settle in Montreal so that my children studies are not affected. They are in class 3 and UKG.



Kindly advise.

Thanks..

i came across your post and i could not understand what yo mean hen you had applied as single applicant with kids due to points shortage !!!

i am getting married in two months, while processing federal and i am not sure now if i should do so ! would you please explain more about your situation ?

While we applied in 2014 we had enough points for full family. 59 was cut off for family and we had 64. But due to delay in quebec processing and change of points at frequent intervals by MIFI we were short of 1 point. So we proceeded as single applicant and quebec provided us csq in 2019.

so you have been issued the CSQ as a single applicant and applied for federal as a single applicant as well ?

Hey there, thanks for sharing your timeline. A couple of questions to try to understand immigration's timelines:

1. When did you send in your passport/copy of passport?
2. Have you received any news since?

I am just trying to track the time it takes after PPR email to receiving the confirmation of permanent residence (CoPR)

Thanks and all the best!

I hope every one will be rewarded after there long wait .
I know very well how frustrating it is but plz never lose the hope and be patient.

Dear All,

I am about to get married in two months! Since i am in the federal stage, i would add my wife to the IRCC application file, however i still have to report the same to the government of Quebec, to issue a new CSQ for me and my future wife!

here are my questions, if anyone can help:

- are they going to re-evaluate my profile and re-calculate the points together for me and my future wife to issue the new CSQs ?
- I applied for the CSQ six years ago, now i am older!!! am i going lose points for age since they will evaluate my situation now ?

When did you apply for PR? With the crazy new government of Quebec I don't if it's worth the risk, they are changing immigration laws every few months. If your close to the DM just wait for your PR and them sponsor your wife.

Regarding cold any precautions/ advise particularly for children to adjust for one week period. Thanks

One week is just a tourist visit, adjusting takes time. It's really cold, you'll need a full equipment .

Hi, sorry I misread your timeline, mine is similar but they only requested for medicals oct 2019 for me. Timeline below. I haven’t received PPR yet
