Got the rejection email this morning. Rejection reason is the famous lead statement problem. It seems the they did not consider my updated letters. I updated my work experience letter two times!!

Sorry to hear this. Did you get your GCMS notes to verify if those letters had been actually attached to your file?. If you have a written confirmation like an email, you can perhaps take a screenshot of that and appeal just as aidina did. Please do not let this go. Updated letters have been considered in the case of informer as well as master3...

Good luck !

yes, based on my GCMS notes, they received the letters and attached them to my application. I also got a confirmation email from them that they received the documents (only for one of the letters actually). I am now working on the appeal email, I will send it soon

Hi, man.

We are in the same boat. I also updated my working experience letter and GCMS showed they had attached my letter to my file.

Can you showed me some clues how to prepare the appeal letter? Thanks

Those people try their best to reject everyone!

Try MP as well. In my case, they replied MP assistant in two days that they will reconsider the case.


Wish you best of the luck!

did your updated letter contain RA lead statement? I mean this sentence :"you are assisting your supervisor in his/her research activities" ? if yes, prepare an email and attach all the documents (post office receipt, screenshot of your email, etc ) to it and justify this letter was received by your office before the final assessment.

I did that, I also attached all the post office receipts as well.

Thank you man, I just came from MP office. The MP assistant said lets wait for their reply to my email!

No, I did not update that. But my original letter says the same thing, I think. The letter said I did research as a RA and teaching, grading assignments and supervision as a TA under my supervisor's supervision. I do not think I have to include those actual wording in order for them to think that is leading statement.....

But I did not update my job offer as a postdoctoral fellow one year ago. Any comments?

Yes. Show us your actual letter. They are a huge pain and they want those exact words. If you did not include them, it may be why you were rejected. If you show us the letter we could confirm that for you.

 

[beishidashuo]

OK, I will do it now

You may think it's ridiculous, but yah you are missing the lead statements which the other members of the forum mentioned.
