    PR Card Photos rejected

    Hey Farah just a question, I also got my pics rejected. I'm about to send new ones, but in their email CIC asks to "Enclose the requested documents, a copy of this letter and folded self-addressed envelope in the envelope with our mailing address". Did you also send this folded self-addressed...

    Police Certificate for Japan

    Hello, So I went through the process of getting my police certificate from Japan. As expected, the certificate arrived after the deadline that CIC gave me (it takes up to 10 weeks for the certificate to arrive here in Vancouver, and CIC deadline was 8 weeks after their request letter). So...

    CEC Criteria met but lower points than before

    You lost points on "foreign work experience". If you can't get experience letters from those companies because they went out of business, try to compensate with: paystubs, letter from a previous co-worker, contracts, etc. Everything you can gather to prove that you were working here, full time...

    Silly mistake in Police certificate

    Bringing back to life an old post ... -When you're waiting for your PCC from Japan, is your file on hold for two months or is CIC still processing the rest of your application until they receive the document? -As PCC from Japan will take "8 to 10 weeks" and CIC wants it in 60 days, I'm 100% sure...

    February 2018 CEC Applicants

    I finally got a letter from CIC requesting a police certificate from Japan (where I lived a long time ago). Since I couldn't get it without their request letter, I'll have to do it now. Do you know if my application will be on hold the whole time, until they get this certificate? Or are they...

    job offer with no LMIA - just past work experience will suffice?

    I think we made the same mistake by answering yes to that question prior to ITA, while we shouldn't have...I changed my answer to "No" like you did and the 2 placeholders for the 2 letters disappeared too. What I did afterwards was: explain the mistake I made in the "letter of explanation" and...

    Offer of employment and Working Holiday visa

    I checked my ITA letter a moment ago, I was invited under CEC, so I had no PoF to show. But if you remember, I made this mistake with this arranged employment points that I claimed but wasn't entitled to. The placeholder "POF" wasn't there until I changed my "no" to the very first question of...

    Offer of employment and Working Holiday visa

    Another question that is related to that big mistake I made...A new placeholder appeared, asking me for PoF. It's kinda weird, as I'm already living in Canada...Now that I don't know under what category I fall into (on my ITA I was eligible for FSW and CEC), I don't know if I should show proof...

    Previous US visa denial

    I agree, but the canadian immigration officer could think otherwise. My petition was denied, not my visa, and the reason was that I didn't meet the criterions required for that particular O1B. I'm just trying to anticipate the immigration officer's reaction. So ultimately I was planning to say...
