    If you have you LOI, money and Isurance you should be good to go.

    Well everybody how are things???

    I am filling out the 2nd part for the visa on Mycic and just wondering a few things?? I know you have 60 days to apply but, it asks if you were living in another country in the last 5 years and because i livied in australia i said yes. So my Question is, do i still have to upload a police cert from Aus because it doesnt really say on the upload for the police cert? or will the garda one do??
    On the Application for a work permit,it ask for name of employer,address and start date?? i dont have a job lined up and i thought you didnt have too?? So do i just leave it blank??????
    Thanks for help.......

    As far as I know yes, you do have to submit a police form for every country youve been in for 6 consecutive months.
    Also for all the employer stuff you can't leave it blank as it won't validate then, you have to write unknown or n/a and put 'to and from' dates that are after you'll arrive and before your permit expires.

    Ok, thank you.
    Was reading everyone's comments and everyone seems to be panicking a small bit! But wants u have the accepting letter u have plenty of time to do the 2nd part of it??? I have applied now for my police cert in Aus and hoping ill have it By the end of the month.. I have 54 days to fill out the 2nd part and send it off so I'm not trying to panic and hoping the cert will here by then!! Once again thank you for your reply!! Have you everything done and sent off??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 128 ✭✭Delira


    Yeah I think you actually have 6 months or something like that to do stage 2, so plenty of time. The problem is for some people is that their 2012 visa is running out soon so they need the new one asap. Or they're just really itching to get out there! I still have months of college ahead of me so I'm taking my sweet time, waiting for everything to be figured out fully before I submit mine so I can be sure that I'm not making any mistakes :-)

    Iv read this thread for weeks now but only decided to post as i believe the application stage is now open for England-well was for about 3 hours which seems a bit ridiculous! Am i right in thinking that the 1000 places were filled in three hours? Did anyone in this thread manage to create and complete their IEC Kompass account in that short time?

    Does this mean you did make the first quota?! Iv been waiting since October and now Im so worried that im going to be working-or worse playing my xbox, when the offices open again and i will miss the 3 hour window or what ever it will be to get my application in! I dont even know how people managed to do it so fast, it seems like it would take a day or two to sort out surely?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,521 ✭✭✭JustRoss23


    are ye on about the English one? if so this one is to deal with the Irish IEC british expats might suit ye better;)

    Been honest I think there only 1 batch for the year and it gone. Everyone who has been allocated a visa now we are all nearly on 2nd stage or just waiting for forms.

    My bad think I was on about Irish sector. But think the UK visas were gone quick too

    Hi, i looking to move to Canada this year, my little brother died last week so despite being very keen to book my visa, i was in no way the frame of mind to know anything about last week thursdays IEC sign up.

    from the information i have been given, i have seen the next signup date for UK residents, as long as I'm able to get my application in, will that guarantee a Visa?

    What are the chances of it being rejected, i have no criminal record oor any health issues or anything. does it depend on how much work you have done etc..?


  • Registered Users Posts: 71 ✭✭samk1


    Hi all was hoping i could get help/advice. my girl friend is having trouble accesing here kompas acc. She has forgotten her kompass acc security question and cant put the cic file number into her profile in the kompas acc.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1 alicerw


    Was anyone succesfull in registering for a Kompass account yesterday. I was told that i had been succesful but am still waiting for a confirmation email to verify my account. Did anyone else have the same issue? It wouldnt let me register again as i had already done so... what do i do?!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,521 ✭✭✭JustRoss23


    all of used are registered already as were all applying through the irish iec this forum is manily dealing with the irish iec:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 18 Billyboo


    Hi. I am really at my wits end. I applied for the IEC Ireland. I was one of the unlucky ones that am 'awaiting quota availability'. I have an active Kompass account. I think I just made it with that. Has anyone that was waiting for quota availability being asked for payment yet? Obviously I haven't being. Does anyone know if I am wasting my time thinking that I will be asked for payment ? :-( I am really upset but everyone deserves a chance right....

    To be honest I think you missed quota billyboo as unlike years before they don't seem to be rejecting on silly things but returning to applicant and just asking them to correct mistake and way Canadins are looking at it it why would they charge you when possibility is more than likely they'd have to refund you which is more work on them

    Hi,

    It was a number of weeks after we got LOI when we received the 'Welcome to Canada' letter, but as far as I'm aware, you don't have to wait for it. Once you've receive the LOI/POE then you're good to go.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5 jaytommydoh


    Thank you for your reply. I'm stressing out a bit as the first letter I received from kompass back in january said my account is active until 10th August so I really want to get this letter before then, otherwise I have no idea what to do then! This might be a silly question but what is POE?!

    POE is (port of entry) same as the LOI (letter of introduction (visa)). Once you receive this then your good to go! It will come through to your CIC account once you have submitted all your details and they have checked over them! Have you started the CIC part yet?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5 jaytommydoh


    Yeah I received my LOI from CIC on the 9th may but I thought you had to get this welcome to Canada letter throught the kompass account to finialise everything?


  • Registered Users Posts: 237 ✭✭Scruffy19

    Once you receive your LOI your good to go. Your Kompass account will still state pending for another while. Think mine still does and im here 3 months!

    Just read over the LOI to make sure it states take this form to immigration with you!:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 5 jaytommydoh


    Aye I just checked there n it says bring this letter with you to immigration. Thanks for your help. What part are you in? I'm thinking ov Toronto to start of work anyways.

    I recently got my letter from IEC to say I have my visa and work permit for Canada. But I lost the passport I applied with and have just got my new 1, does anyone know if I should contact IEC to change my visa over or could I do it on arrival in Canada?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 576 ✭✭✭dooroy


    My niece was one of the lucky ones to get a visa for Canada but when she tried to upload her Passport and Resume on her Kompass account it would not submit. The only button here was 'save only'.. She sent 6 emails to Kompass regarding this as her date for sending them was 22nd March 2014 and finally received an email saying it was a technical fault and would not affect her application. She still cant upload these documents. Anyone else have this problem?

    Does anyone know how to access a kompass account for 2013? A friend of mine got a permit last year and is hoping to go to Canada next week but didnt print off his letter showing he got his permit. He now cannot access his account for 2013. Does he need this letter for travelling?

    The letter is in the CIC account, not the Kompass account.
