Hi all
I applied in December 2003 and processing started in january 2004.
This is what I got from CIC NEW DELHI.

In order to continue the assessment of the application you submitted to this office, you must submit the following information:
We are in the process of reviewing your application for permanent residence in Canada as a Skilled Worker under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA).
The Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations require that applicants provide all information and documents required for the assessment of their applications. The selection criteria are clearly defined and your eligibility as a Skilled Worker will be assessed on the basis of the evidence provided by you. Please submit the following documents and information to our office in order for us to assess your application:
LIST OF DOCUMENTS REQUIRED:
1- IRPA Application Forms:
updated application form (IMM0008), Schedules 1 and 3, and Additional Family Information form (IMM5406)

2- Proof of Experience
Please provide original, updated experience and/or employment letters which clearly describe your job duties for all occupations in which you wish to be assessed.employment and experience documents must be originals

3- Relative in Canada:

4- Proof of Education:
If you have completed additional study or training programs since you first applied for admission to Canada, please provide marks cards for all years that you attended school, and a graduation diploma issued on the completion of the program of study or training. All documents must be certified.

5- Language Skills:
Officers no longer assess language proficiency at interview. Language proficiency is assessed on the basis of a test done by an approved testing organization or evaluation by the officer of written evidence of proficiency submitted by the applicant.
If you are claiming English language skills, and English is not your native language, we strongly recommend that you take the IELTS language test. Conclusive proof of your language ability is required.

6- Spouse/Common-law Partner:
If your spouse will be accompanying you to Canada, you must pay the processing fee to add your spouse to your application. Please note that, if your spouse has completed post-secondary education or has studied or worked in Canada, you can be awarded additional points for adaptability. These points will be awarded only if your spouse is accompanying you to Canada, provided the processing fee for your spouse has been paid. In addition to paying the fee to include your spouse in your application, you must provide certified documents to support your spouse’s education, work, or study.

PLEASE RETURN A COPY OF THIS LETTER WITH THE REQUESTED DOCUMENTS.
DO NOT SEND COPIES OF DOCUMENTS PREVIOUSLY SUBMITTED.
The requested information must be received in our office within 90 days from the date of this letter. If we do not receive the requested documents within this specified period we will make a decision on your application based on the information and documents already at our disposal. We will not request further documentation to support your application. You must therefore submit complete and detailed documents and information at this time.

The Immigration and Refugee Protection Act states that applicants must provide complete and truthful information and documents when applying for entry into Canada. We verify information and documents submitted in support of an application.
