    Unfortunately, I didn't use TA/RA work hours. Because I thought my work experience was long enough, which was denied by them. But they did give me the 5 adaptability points. So I think the eligible PhD applicants will be awarded this 5 points automatically afterwards.

    I received the refusal letter today. They did award the 5 adaptability points to me. But they think my job descriptions do not match the NOC code. So, I was taken 5 years work experience out. This causes me 4 points short of 67. I will appeal. That decision is extremely ridiculous to me. Bad...

    Your statements are very good logically and reasonably. Additionally, we may tell them that the CIC awarded us the 5 adaptability points, but CPP not. For us, CIC and CPP are the same immigration department of Canada, they can't apply double standards to us in one system.

    It's very sad to hear your news. I'm very similar as you and afraid that I may receive my bad news later. Since I were the first one who appealed the NER decision here, I am wondering they don't realize this problem before my case. They may have to reconsider their decision about this kind of...

    Hi, Dani1982, could you tell us whether you overturn your NER to PER or not at CIO? Could you share the part of letter about the explanation to adaptability points? It seemed you could not pass the CIO if you just had 66 points. I checked the tracker file, there was no appealing mark for you. So...

    It's weird. I got my NER in March, since they didn't award me the 5 adaptability points. After I appealed, they overturned NER to PER. Now, it means I have to do this again. I think there was a miscommunication between CPP and CIO. All PhD students who need the 5 adaptability points may have to...

    It took me near a month to receive their feedback. Maybe you just need a little more patience. A few overturned the NER decisions successfully. Your situation is similar as theirs.

    Is there another guy who got PER as well after appealing his NER? I thought I was the first one. :).If so, that may means that all eligible PhD students should have this adaptability points. This may help a lot of students who need more points in work experience or language.

    The reason why I am not very sure is that it states clearly in R83 of IRPA that one has to complete the program to earn this adaptability points, though it contradicts the instruction of OP 6, Federal Skilled Workers, which is in 12.16.(b) Adaptability, page 44. You can read these two parts, and...

    I am not very sure whether every PhD student should have this 5 points. There was no reason in the letter to be given for my PER this time. My wife may has three points in her education, but I didn't state that clearly in my application. I don't know which one worked. Anyway, anyone who has...

    The reason why I appealed the decision is that I had to wait my graduation or retaking the IELTS with a high mark to be qualified to resubmit my application. Either one was a long time wait, and either one would be longer than appealing. What I expected for my appeal was a hopeless hope. And the...

    Miracle happens! I received my NER last month. I appealed that decision few days later, though nobody thought I could reverse that decision, even myself. But today I received my PER from the officer, and the letter said my case had forwarded to the VO office. I am still confused what this...

    I am busy on my thesis now, so I don't want to retake IELTS in near future. I have two choices now. Firstly, I resubmit my application after my graduation. At that time, however my score is enough under any circumstance. Secondly, I appeal. I don't know usually how long it will take and how...

    I think they just won't accept any correction not a new application.

    The following is a part of the letter. I lose points in the red part. The bold 'complete' is in the original letter. It is the official who wants me to notice this. My wife has a vocational secondary certificate. But I didn't submit any document for this, since I thought my score was enough. Do...
