    Applicant from PhD program after 5 Nov, 2011 connect here to get status

    Some applications are already checked for that at Sydney, so basically the Ottawa VO re-does this work! I think the VO officers should be the ones paying the extra $10 LOL! Anyway, it's just a matter of consistency, either Sydney checks work experience for all applications and the VO just...

    Well, doesn't Sydney refuse applications because they don't comply with the NOC? Isn't that kind of evaluating?

    Isn't it kind of strange that CPP-Ottawa would reject an applicant based on the fact that work experience does not match the NOC?! I mean how did Sydney office accept it and consider that it matched the NOC and afterwards Ottawa office says it doesn't!!! Any explanation guys?!

    That's what happened with me. But I think I read on this thread an earlier post that someone was asked to submit another letter and got his/her PER. Not sure though!

    As far as I know that universities in Ontario exempt students from international fees if they receive their PER.

    I'm sorry you got rejected and like you I think it is a good thing you got to know early and not wait for so long... Yup they do work fast sometimes, i got the rejection email on the same day that they started processing my application! :o I just wish they could be that fast in acceptances too!

    I was refused because of work experience and I was not refunded. Their reason was that I failed in the selection process, which as I understood is when they check your documents (work experience, proof of funds, etc...)

    I just wanted to make sure that if someone can only prove his TA experience will not be rejected under this NOC because he doesn't have any RA experience. What do you think?

    I need to ask you all again did anyone apply under NOC4012 with only one of the TA or RA experience? Or did you all apply with both TA AND RA? It's confusing because from the example titles on the hrsdc website is "teaching assistant - university", which implies that this person would only have...

    It's quite hard to communicate with them! It's just like communicating with machines... But, this made me wonder. What if someone gets his PER and applied for OHIP and gets it and uses it for a checkup or whatever. What happens if that unlucky dude receives a rejection afterwards?! Does he pay...

    Re: Urgent help I don't know an answer to your questions, perhaps one of the seniors could help you. You could order a CAIPS report to know what they have on the system for you both... Although, I would think that they would have a record of all the applications and requests you've made...

    Question about applying under PhD stream

    Hello everyone, I just wanted to know did anyone apply under NOC 4012 with TA experience only. I mean without any RA experience? From the example titles are: So, does this mean that one can apply under PhD stream with only TA experience? Thanks!

    Well, I just wish I could say reply to that with more optimism that the worthy have better chance that the lucky! But from what I am seeing in these days, it seems quite a naive statement :'(...

    I need to ask if there is anyone here who applied with only TA work experience (without RA)? and were they accepted or rejected based on that? Thanks!

    Wow! I think it is getting harder and harder to satisfy the officers! You may be doing the exact same duties listed in the NOC, but it is a matter of how you list it to the officer to convince him that you are actually doing that! Sorry to hear about the rejection, it's a waste of time, effort...
