I am trying to find our people's recent experience with applying for Authorization to return to Canada (ARC). I heard the visa offices are refusing them more and more. Is this true?????

Does anyone have an opinion on the success in this scenario being granted an ARC:

- Failed refugee claim 2011
- Negative PRRA & H&C 2013
- government paid for removal (not escorted)
- departure confirmed January 2013

Wanting to put in application for federal skilled worker when it opens in May. Will have enough points to qualify. But really, really worried about the ARC. Application will be through Mexico.

Any thoughts appreciated!
