Post e-APR Process and Common Reasons for Rejection

[BillHyatt]

Guys help mw with my status

Aor 23/11/2017
Medical not approved yet
Ip1 9/12/2017
Ip2 12/12/2017
Ip1 9/1/2018

Is it possible to go back to ip1 after ip2

Yes, in most cases it is due to technical error or mistake of an agent. Maybe they have allocated your file to an agent and they will update your Medicals and Criminality Results soon after reviewing your file.

Dear Bill Hayat.
I have read most of your responses and I must say all of us should be thankful to you for answering our queries, worries, doubts with utmost patience.

I am PNP-O with LVO.
My AOR is 08th Sep. On 13th Dec I got ADR for bio-page, height and eye-color and I had to pay RPRF.
BG says processing - which means my application is in IP2.
ADR status is changed to No additional docs required.

1) How long does it take to get PPR after this? Will my application wait to complete 6 months?

2) Soon my one year old son will get Indian Visa stamped on his passport (he is Canadian); do I have to inform LVO about this?

Thanks and regards

1. It takes on average 21 Days from IP2 to PPR at the moment.

2. You don't need to tell this at the moment.

Part 2 of 2: Most Common Reasons for Rejection

Most common is PCC:

a. Not included

b. No Coloured Scan attached

c. Dates don't cover complete period of stay (for e.g. you stayed in one address until 13th August but PCC cover dates till 31st July – don’t miss even one day)

d. The wrong PCC attached (includes not attaching PCC where you have lived more than 6 months – calculate your stay duration by adding all stays and include PCC if combine stay is 180 days or more)

e. LOE: Not writing explanation of why you weren’t able to attach PCC required and what you have done so far – attach evidence such as PCC Application submitted

f. Incomplete Documents – Some countries require additional documents such as consent forms for IRCC to directly get info therefore, it is important to read carefully CIC Guidance for each specific country before applying.

g. States PCC – Some countries do not have Central/Federal PCC System and therefore, you are advised to get PCC from all states you have lived (For work, study, and residential purpose excluding short stays). In addition, read CIC guidance, as they sometimes require Federal PCC as well instead of just State PCC.

h. Change in Circumstance such as visiting country after having PCC will not remain valid so you need to be careful and may need to apply for PCC again.


Medical Reports:

a. This includes failure to get Upfront Medical or After Letter from IRCC for any reason.

b. In addition, if you have any physical or mental issues the IRCC will reject your application and will advise you to set a meeting with your panellist for further advice or treatment plans – I know some people who recovered after some medication or physiatrist help and got PR later on.

c. Very rare but most significant error I saw was when one person submitted a report from a doctor who was not registered as approved panellist – see from CIC website before booking appointment.

d. Ensure you know what tests are required. Although, it is very rare on one occasion candidate only told panellist that she needs a test for Canada not indicating PR (nowadays for EE) and result was that Full Examination was not done resulting in rejection. {However, that panellist was dropped from approved list after short time but you must be careful if you are not booking appointment from well-reputed institute or Doctor.}


Conversion of Files:

a. Only convert files in the approved format and not just what suits best to you

b. If you are using software’s or online tools for PDF conversion then it is recommended to test it on different readers (such as Foxit or Adobe) before submitting. IRCC will be using Adobe Acrobat so make sure your files (all pages) will open in it. There is a case where IRCC rejected the incomplete application due to files not opening in Adobe (file was converted using Foxit).

c. Your documents must be clear and readable after reducing its size (it is recommended to not have a file below 150)

d. Always convert or scan your file in Color version unless where states by the IRCC to have a grayscale or black and white.


Passport and Visa Status:

a. It is important to attach your Passports and Residential Cards (if applicable) along with your file.

b. Make sure all pages with stamps are also included as IRCC rejected the application in past for not having a stamp for existing of one of the countries.


Education:

a. Not including ECA report or only including ECA number

b. Not including Degrees and Transcripts – please note that IRCC will reject incomplete files unlike OINP, which asks for additional information.

c. If you have distant learning course or studied in a different country than where the Institute is located then include this in Letter of Explanation and clearly mention your status.


Experience:

a. Not including Job responsibility letters or not matching with NOC.

b. Documents submitted cannot be verified the due lack of information of company available online.

c. Company registered in the house or residential area that may raise the question on quality of work performed.

d. Could not answer questions or satisfy officer during a formal interview.


These are the most common Reasons identified from the sample of more than 1,000 applicants in 2016/17.

Hello!

Is it necessary to submit transcripts? The checklist only asks for Degree certificates, plus having WES ECA means our transcripts were OK right? Thing is I have only 3 weeks left to my last submission date and it takes more than 3 weeks to get my Bachelors transcripts. All this while, I was under impression that only degree certificate is necessary.

Please reply!

Applicants in the past were asked to produce Transcripts and you should have them when you submitted ECA or received your Degree. There is no need to get latest Degree or Transcript as you just need to attach transcript you received when you completed your Degree.

Thanks for your reply.
In many Indian universities , generally, we don't get transcripts unless applied for separately.
What we get is marksheets which is more or less similar to transcripts; only they have one for each semester/year while transcripts are a combined marksheet. I applied for transcripts for ECA, but that was sent to WES.
Is it okay to submit marksheets? Because i am not left with enough time to get a transcript now. And give a letter of explanation for it ?

Please help !

I have applied for PCC in my country on 15.12.2017. Today I got the PCC and it says that upto 15.12.2017 there are no cases against me. Is it going to be a problem since it says only upto 15.12.2017? I am yet to receive ITA.

If you are a resident of a country then no problem as it is valid for 6 months and you should be fine.

It can be a technical error or some fields like Names (Family name etc) cannot be left blank or needs to be changed in a different way. Unless we have more details regarding this matter it is difficult to predict what can be the real cause.
