Have you done the come to canada questionnaire thing? Kinda hard thinking back to when I applied now but I think you do the questionnaire, and get a code. When you create mycic it asks for the code that you got from the questionnaire?

heiid4 it only takes 10 working days for the UK cert. You've been on the ACPO website yeah?

Not including my 3 years in Belfast I have 3 years ROI Coumputer Science experience.

If my UK clearance dosn't come on time for WV release, I might apply leaving 3 years in belfast out of the resumé

Does anyone know if this would make it through the process? or if its a good idea?

Being dishonest with immigration authorities is a terrible idea.

You have plenty of time. The police certs are for stage 2 so there is no rush!

Where did you get the "8 weeks" figure for the ACPO cert? All I've seen on the website says 10 working days?

I read it on the form, I guess 8 weeks is an absolute worst case scenario, read it and panicked

Sent APCO form on 14th on 1-2 days delivery post to england, recieved back today the 31st. 17 days total. For anyone else interested, you still have time.
I paid the fee 55 pounds and additional 9 pounds for tracked return.

The campaign's duration.

westernlass

14 days I think then you have to open a new one.

Bit confused here, what exactly is the campaign?

I have had both my accounts set up since March 9th, a month to the day. And they're both still active.

westernlass

Ok so I'm wrong but I am reading on the facebook groups the CIC does expire.

I also read that both expire. I just can't remember where I read it and cannot remember the timeline that was given

The Conditional Acceptance Letter expires after 14 days. The CIC account never expires (I can still log into my account from last year).

i have a kompass account created with about 2 weeks. will someone tell me do i have to create a new one cause they are saying you can only create a kompass account when it opens in your country?
my account is still active too but says its not open in my country today

westernlass

I'm the same. You can't submit your account til it opens to your country

Hi guys,

Does anyone know how long it takes from submitting your visa type, name etc and paying in Stage 1 to receiving your CAL?
Thanks

Once you submit your application, you receive an email within 24 hours (I got mine about 6 hours later) which asks you for payment, resume and passport scan.

Once submitted you should receive CAL within 2 weeks (I got mine about 4 days later I think it was)

SO
on tuesday do we keep refreshing the category page on the time its released
kompass-2015-iec-eic.international.gc.ca/iec/iec_category-categorie_eic

or

do we need to login from the first landing page and go to the category page thus taking 2-3 pages to get to select the work category and submit

good luck all

conor052001

had a read through the thread but couldn't find an answer-

when do these visas usually start (ie when is the earliest you could move) and how long of a window do they give you? does the 2 years start from the date you enter or visa issuance? thanks
