Canada 2010-2011?

DazzlerIE

Mines four weeks on Wednesday in London.

I've been to Canada on the U-35 already, so I see no reason for them to refuse me, but there was a tiny discrepancy on the jobs on my CV and on the application form (Left out ones I felt weren't important from IEC application). I know it's tiny, but it's the type of stuff you begin to fret over at this stage!

I'm 140 ish on the USIT list at the mo. If I was refused, I think I'd just go with them to put my mind at ease!

I'm just a worrier! If they spell out exactly what it gets refused for then I'd probably just apply directly again tho

you'll be fine!

I just don't understand how the visas are being dished out in such paltry amounts at the moment, considering the sheer number of people who have applied

Like two people have got them on here, and a similar number accross the British Expats forum.

Another two or three on USIT's facebook, and maybe 5-10 on Bunac's page

It's weird

Most of the people on the bunac fb page have went direct as well,so it's not because they are signed up with bunac that they are getting theirs. its just a really slow and unorganised process. they are obviously not sticking to the "first come, first served" basis they claimed. the last guy's was sent from paris to london less than 4 weeks ago. :mad:

Hi all, quick question, I am applying for mine now. I need to get the Garda certificate - anyone know how long this takes?
I'm going with my boyfriend so have added him on my app as my common law partner and he has filled out his own app and added me on it.
Have letter from bank sorted, CV matches application.
The app gets posted to Paris and then on to London is that correct? Is it worthwhile to courier it?
Does everyone get asked to do a medical or do they contact you if you need one?
Is your application usually rejected in France ie if you make it to London does that mean you're in?
Sorry for all the questions - don't wanna do anything stupid on my application.

They did give an estimate of 8 weeks end to end.
Nobody has any idea how they are being processed or how much time it takes to do each one.
I also imagine embassies may have higher priority tasks, like helping citizens that may be in Libya or other trouble spots,

im did the same thing DazzlerIE - i didn't put every job on my cv that was on my application form as i didn't think that some of the jobs were relevant to my current qualifications/job and i was told to have my cv only two pages long

could they reject the applications because of this?

Really don't want to jinx myself

But I really doubt it, it's just little things like this start to niggle at you after this long!

It'd be such a pain in the hoop to have it rejected this late

Think positive though!

the garda cert can take up to 6 weeks at most i've been told, some people got theirs in a week or two,yes it goes to paris then onto london,as for courier it dont think it makes a difference i asked my sister who works in a post office she said to make sure its registered that way you can track it.only people who are going to work in childcare need a medical as far as i know.most applications are rejected in france though even if it goes to london it can still be rejected.best of luck with it:D
