关于为什么要引入新的申请流程,CIC是这样解释的:由于目前排队等候审理的案子甚多,可能导致数年的拖延。引入新流程是为了避免不止一次的要求申请者更新证明材料。There is currently a queue of federal skilled worker applications, creating a delay of several years. In order to avoid asking applicants to submit updated supporting documentation more than once, the Simplified Application Process has been introduced.
Under this process, applicants submit only a basic application form and fee. This guarantees a place in the processing queue, meaning that the regulations in effect on that date will apply to the application.
新流程适用于大多数的联邦技术移民申请人。一般来说,只有获得HRDC加分的申请人和已在加拿大工作的人或留学生除外。
You may apply for permanent residence as a Federal Skilled Worker - Simplified Application Process if:
• you meet the selection criteria of this class (See the section Selection Criteria for details);
• you do not have arranged employment;
• you do not currently have a temporary resident status in Canada as a worker or student;
• You do not currently have in process another application for permanent residence under
the Economic Class;
• you are not a Provincial Nominee;
• you have not been selected by Quebec.
• you are not applying through the Canadian visa office in Buffalo.
二,交申请费。注意:此时不能交登陆费。需等到使领馆通知再交。旧的程序可以在申请时就交登陆费。 注:预审阶段撤案,申请费将全额退还。所以改主意的朋友一定要赶在使领馆主动联系你之前(即通知进入第二阶段前)!使领馆约在第二阶段开始前四个月通知申请人。All supporting documents will be requested later, approximately four months before the visa office is ready to assess the application. 另:9月1日后,使领馆才收到完整材料的申请者,将被接受申请,但证明材料将被退回。
三,语言程度证明材料不需要在申请时交。也就是说暂不需要提供雅思成绩单了。但是语言程度的自我估计还是要的,所以不能乱估,毕竟到后来是要你出示证明材料的。不过这也给申请人出了个难题,到底怎么估呢?估低了不划算,万一因为语言程度低而失去进入第二阶段的机会呢?估高了又怕到时候没考到那个分数。不过CIC似乎已经考虑到了这个情况,还是鼓励申请人实事求是的,而且CIC还提醒申请人可在等待通知期间提高语言能力及多了解加拿大。
You may want to improve your language skills and learn more about communities across Canada while your application is being processed.
恐怕为了保险起见,很多申请人要考两次雅思了!Faint!
四,在使馆通知进入第二阶段前,申请人不得主动补料!申请人的任何个人情况变动,除联络地址(邮寄地址或e-mail信箱)发生变化,或雇用了新的中介代理,或决定撤案外,都无需告诉使领馆,即使告诉了也不会被受理。
Important: If your personal situation changes while your application is being processed, do not
contact the visa office. An update of your situation will automatically be asked before the visa office
is ready to assess your application. We will not consider any information request.
The assessment of your application
When the visa office is ready to assess your application,
it will contact you, ask you to provide an update of your situation, and ask you to fill out a form with your history for the past years.
进入第二阶段后,使领馆将要求你更新个人情况,并填表说明过去的个人经历。这对于工作经历已满1年但不满4年的申请人是个利好消息,可以提前排队 ,无需担心等待期间的工作经历不被VO认可。因为旧的申请程序下,确实有明文要求工作经历只算到提交申请日截止。 The visa office will also send you a list of documents to submit, such as passport, proof of medical exam, police certificates, identitydocuments, proof of language test results, diplomas, etc. 候补证明材料和旧流程相比还是一个都不能少!呵呵
Medical exam You, and all your family members must undergo and pass an immigration medical exam, even if your family
members will not be processed for permanent residence with your application. We will provide instructions on medical exams once we are ready to assess your application. 这句话的意思如果我没理解错,应该就是:一旦我们准备评估你的申请(即确定申请人可以进入第二阶段),我们将发出体检指示(ME)!
