    PR Application Rejected Long Time ago.

    When you apply for immigration, there are two parts: PR based on eligibility and visa based on inadmissibility. If an applicant is denied because of shorter working hours, that's not inadmissibility. If the the visa, on the other hand, is denied because the applicant was convicted of a crime or...

    PR Application Rejected Long Time ago.

    The form asks if you were denied VISA not immigration. Many applicants here get their PR application refused due to being ineligible for PR (do not qualify). This is different from having a visa rejected because the reason for that is usually due to inadmissibility (persona non grata for...

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

    You earlier mentioned that assessment was done early May whereas notes on your updated reference letters were made in June, so possibly they have not done an assessment after that. If they later check them you will be awarded the points for RA provided they accept them. Did you get letters which...

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

    If you had 75 and they took out 5 points for previous study, shouldn't you have 70 points? FYI: we were under the impression you get 5 points for 2 years of "previous study" if you completed 2 years of PhD. Sadly, we discovered that those two years are part of "current study" so long you are in...

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

    I am guessing that SL stands for selection criteria (meeting the minimum of 1 year experience of continuous work, completed 2 years of PhD or finished program within a year prior to application). FA stands for final assessment. RC is related to data entry, perhaps recording credentials...

    Applying for CEC as research assistant (NOC 4012)

    This is the most ridiculous case of refusal I have seen on this forum. T4 and T4A are based on how your funding agency and university choose to pay you and has nothing to do with the type of work you do or how many hours you spend. They're treating it as if you work for two different employers...

    New CEC - Jan 2013 Applications

    There is a delay. What we noticed here is that after the deadline is passed, the applicant can send a reminder a few days later. Within a week the notes are e-mailed. So if you don't get them by Tuesday, you may send an e-mail which contains your info and request tracker number.

    Confused about my status

    You may continue to be on implied status. I suggest you confirm with CIC about you status before accepting work to make sure you do not work without authorization. What I mean is that if you get rejected without applying for a new one, you are CERTAINLY not allowed to work, so applying anyway...

    Confused about my status

    1. You can stay in Canada with the study permit but cannot work except on-campus. You can no longer work. 2. If your work permit gets rejected, you can apply for another one with an LMO. I suggest you ask your employer to apply for it right away and then apply for work permit. This application...

    GMCS notes said not enough of 12 months experience, but in review

    I suggest one thing: get a university letter which indicates when you were considered to have completed requirements for your degree the day you completed all your exams. This would be a date earlier than when you actually had the ceremony/diploma. Your only chance here is if they consider you...

    Cec rejected recently- USA Trip- valid wp- expired TRV

    You do not become inadmissible for not gaining PR based on eligibility. Being ineligible is not the same as being inadmissible. About going to the US, the rule is you don't need a visa so long your work permit is valid AND you do not travel to any other country. So make sure you have evidence...

    About the work permit under spousal sponsorship, when did you apply and when did you get it? If you applied before the old work permit expired, you have implied status and can continue to work until you hear back from CIC on that application. Did CIC ever get back to you on that work permit...

    CIO eligibilty - GCMS notes - 2013 applicants

    Sydney only skims through the application but do not check every single detail or verify every single document. They do a completeness check and if they catch something that clearly disqualifies an applicant, may act on it. CPP still does background checks and verifies every single document, and...
