Topic: help needed
Posted by ans333 (2) 04 Dec 2007
i started working part-time during the end of my 3rd year studies and continued until i finished my final year of pharmacy.when i had applied for my pr file my representative told me that CIC will count that to abt 9 months of fulltime work.my concern is that i was working as assistant pharmacist in conjunction with the chief pharmacist as that time i wasn't allowed as i hadn't finished my studies.in my appl.form have mentioned the same noc code for pharmacists for that 18 months of part-time exp and then another of nearly 22 months of fulltime exp after my pharmacy studies.would CIC consider my previous exp.anyone's help will be greatly appreciated.
have used a representative for my pr appli.have received the file no. and a letter from cic mentioning the current processing time to be 45 months.whereas on cic's website times for london for 70% appli to be cleared are 35 months.so why this big diff in this.also i had noticed few weeks back that my representative has made a mistake in filling my pr appl form.had asked him to change that nd he mentioned will get it done and post a new form to cic.is it possible to do so in this way.i am really worried abt this as cic is very strict in all these aspects so finally have decided to cancel his representation and in future will take my appl in own hands.could anyone help me in this plz!!! i know its a big big query but plz urgent help is needed!

I'm a little bit drown by the overflow of information! In principle they would consider your part-time, but it all depends on how you actually wrote that down and whether you've got a decent reference letter for it. They will let you know how many points you actually got with that one.

As for the processing time. You can simply write a nice professional (and no pestering-style!) letter and ask them why does it takes longer for your case, and ask them politely if they need further documents from you to speed up your case.

Anyway it's just an estimate, so they might be faster in the end.

On a personal note, the immigration application to Canada is not very complicated. Since you're a pharmacist by training, you ain't that dumb and you CAN do-it-yourself. Normally you require a representative or immigration attorney when your case is complicated or not clear-cut. US immigration application process on the other end is like murky water!

In a nutshell, just read thoroughly and use your logic.
