Re: PNP Timeline - please add your experiences
It's been almost a month since my file has been transferred to Detroit but haven't heard anything from Detroit itself. Would it be futile to send them an email or should I just wait for 90 days before going to inquire as per instruction on their last email?

Re: PNP Timeline - please add your experiences
It looks like BC PNP may be my route into Canada, so I have a few questions.
How effective is this route ? Do many people get refused?
What type of job would be needed/ have a good chance of being accepted?
What is the timeline like ?
Hope I can get some answers.

Hi Guys
I received a letter from Buffalow, it was posted on feb 18th arrived March 3rd, saying
'we have completed the review on your application, you do not require an interview, we require the following documents within 90days of this letter'
they want police checks for my step-kids from the UK
Im so thankful for a reply and that it wasnt any worse, been so worried like the rest of us in the queue, so its going to take a month to get them police certs back to me, in the mean time we are moving house so i need to tell them about that, just my luck items will get lost in the mail or go to the wrong address
good luck everyone

Our timelines are nearly identical! I also received a letter on Feb 18th asking for my police certificates from one of the countries I used to live in...I got someone to get it for me, FedExed it international from Europe, translated by a certified translator and then shipped it off to Buffalo, delivered March 1st. This process alone was about $300!!!
Tip: Use a courier! FedEx, UPS or whatever you have, NEVER use Canada post. They misplaced my PNP certification and they're located in Vancouver as well!
Here's my complete timeline:
PNP Applied Feb 09 '10
PNP Approved Mar 23
App reached Buffalo May 10
Cheque cashed Jun 18
AOR/Med request Sep 1
Med Aug 17
Add' docs requested Sep 7
Add' docs sent Sep 22
IA & PCC requested Feb 16 '11
PCC sent: Mar 1
Once you get the police certificate in, the wait is about 1 -2 months judging from other applicants
Keep us updated, good luck!

Re: PNP Timeline - please add your experiences
Hey, does anyone know what, specific, email address they send details from? I've set my spam filters on Gmail to ignore anything from *.gc.ca, but want to be even more safe.
EDIT: Still heard nothing

Re: PNP Timeline - please add your experiences
I arrived here via BC PNP... see my timeline at the bottom of my post, but it took about 6 months in total. Have a look on the BC PNP website for a list of jobs that qualify.

That's very good news Kae. We haven't heard anything since our file has been transferred to Detroit. I'll be patiently waiting till next month which will be 90 days since I have received that email in January. I have emailed them since my file has been transferred to Detroit but they totally ignored it. Keep us posted and good luck in your final hurdles.
hang in their you should hear something soon, they responded to 1 of the 3 of my pestering emails
