Quebec immigration interview

[Caz n Neil]

Hi,
was just wondering if anyone on here has done the the immigration interview for Quebec? I understand it will be in French, which of course I am now revising! However was interested what sort of things will be discussed? Will it be a conversation along the lines of where I have worked what responsibilities I had, and about family etc, the stuff on the application in general?

Were they friendly? was it very formal like a test, and if you are trying to say something quite complicated do they get a bit funny if your grammer is not perfect or you forget the odd word?

Bojour,

good to find someone in expat form who are in the same process like me and my wife.

So first of all have you cleared DELF exam? we are also planning to apply for Quebec immigration as per website and out lawyer they suggest that we can qualify but need to study and give DELF exam and chance of facing interview call with be 50-50%. we are in the process of learning and not applied yet but planning to apply within 3-4 months and then all the best.

regarding you question, if you face the interview than your interview can last long upto 30min to 1hour in which first they discuss about yourself, career related question, why you want to go Canada, your interest, hobbies, are your prepared in to live in Quebec and how etc etc but this is a interview not exam and they can ask very normal question which everyone know's. during the interview they will told you that now i will discuss in french and then you have to speak in french and if everything goes fine you will receive your visa on same day. they are not focus on grammar part actually they want to confirm that can you able to speak and understand french or not? don't worry about grammar part just focus on speaking and listening. my friend has attend the interview and he got his visa....

please write more about your french learning experience and your immigration point etc... and ya keep in touch as we are on the same boat...

Merci!!

Hi mohitrahuja,

Even I am in the same boat. Thinking about my chances of immigrating to Quebec. Me and my wife are planning to take french classes soon.

One quick question. Do we need to hire a immigration consultant for Quebec immigration ? Can we do it outself ? If we do it ourself what is the risk involved ?

thanks. Keep in touch.

Hi,

if you are graduate and understand basic english to fill some form in which they ask you to give your, education, experience history etc. then why you need consultant?????

whats the risk?????? if you can speak and write english well......

"Risk" is if you give some $$$$$$$$$ to stupid consultant and they can't successfully able to submit your paper, or miss your some important document, or close the office without knowing you...........etc

Now my question is how many marks your are getting for Quebec immigration, what you background, exp etc. and your wife, ielts, funds, age, calculate....waiting for reply....

I got my CSQ in February without having to do an interview. Apparently only around 50% of people get selected for an interview but I have no idea if it's a random selection or just "borderline" cases that have to do an interview. I've been living in France for a few years so got a good score on my French assessments plus I have a professional job so I don't know if those helped????

Everyone needs IELTS even if you are born in an english speaking country and studied in english. These are the latest rules. English language exam, ie IELTS is mandatory. The minimum score needed is 7 overall.

The IELTS is required regardless of whether the application is FSW or provincial nominee. The CIC website clearly states on the application guide that any applications will be returned as incomplete if this isn't included.

Sorry am unable to post the link. Will try again though
