September 2010- send application to Quebec for certificate of selection
November 2010- received AOR from Quebec
December 2011- Received Certificate of Selection
February 8th 2012- CIC Nova Scotia received my application
Anyone living in the U.S. currently going through the same process? or gone through it recently? Please share your experience. When should I expect correspondance from NS? from Buffalo? Also, I sent my application without the FBI identification record as I haven't received it yet. If I do receive it before my file gets to Buffalo, should I wait until I have a case # to send it in? or is it ok to mail as soon as I have it?
This process is taking so much longer than I thought...it is very discouraging...please share your own experiences.
Maaaaaan, they received my application on the same day as you but ecas does not show the "we started processing your application..."
I am really tired of waiting and checking my email/mailbox everyday
I hope something will come this wekk or next week !!!
One of the options is to go to the US-Canada border cross the border to US and comeback to Canada. So as soon as you enter the officer will process ur landing process. Preferably to be done in quebec not recommended to be done in ontario.
I wanted to ask when did u do the second police check that buffalo asked you for it? and was it done in Ontario or Quebec?
so it has been 15 months and one week now that I have sent my file to buffalo. Emailed them two months ago and they replied that the file is in process. Normal processing times is 14 months on their website.
Any suggestions ???
I didn't realize that the "landing" had to be done at the 1st port of entry. I just assumed that if you are a Quebec-selected applicant, Toronto immigration would not officially do your landing and let Quebec process you since it is your final destination anyways. Thanks for clarifying and good luck!

Thanks for your wishes. Though I'm selected by Quebec government, it is federal government that issues immigration visa. I think that's why I have to go through landing process at the first immigration gate that I will be stepping on.
