Friends... I have a doubt reg. the CIC agents' contact number +1(613)9444-000 which I got somewhere in this forum only.

I searched for this number on CIC official website but it's not listed anywhere on https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/contact-ircc/client-support-centre.html .

Is this number official and credible ? Please let me know if i am missing something here.
If you have trouble calling, you can also raise an CSE instead.

Hey guys,
I just received my gcms notes. And i’m quite worried about the case analyst recommendation for my experience!
Aor : 15th august 2018
CEC INLAND


Note 4:
Date : 2018/09/17“Experience: product specialist NOC 6221 at xyz company. *review required* web based search confirms employer information note : 6221 technical sales specialist_wholesales trade appears loe duties are not consistent with lead statement for declared noc. Pa’s duties may be more consistent with noc 6552(xyz company website). Letter confims salary of...letter confirms full time employment- documented income provided
Work- 0 years 0months of 1 year(s)-review required crs canadian work : 0 years 0 months of 1 year(s)” Visa office was CPC vegreville

Note 1:
Date : 2018/10/26 “received loe about visa refusal at 12 when dep family applied.” Visa office is CPC Ottawa


Assessments :
Eligibility:review required
Security: not started
Criminality : in progress
Medical: passed

Can someone please help me understand the statement of the case analyst regarding my work experience. ( fyi i’m 100% sure my duties match noc6221 and not noc 6552) is there a course of action i need to take to tackle this situation.

I was also able to connect with an agent this afternoon and she told me that my medical is passed and everything else is in progress. Nothing else.

Any help is much appreciated!
Loe here means letter of experience.
You need to show that your job duties are the same with that of NOC 6221 and it seems thst the CA is checking the company's website (probably what the company does) to match you to an NOC. It's up to you to be convincing that your job duties matches the NOC you selected.
Submit the docs using a webform.

Thank you. It's much clearer now.
The job duties specified in my LOE are as follows:

As a Product Specialist – Technical Support she completes the following duties:
- Handle inbound calls, e-mails, and chats from customers and sales team on technical issues.
-Advise customers on how to apply XYZ products to provide an optimum solution for their application
-Spot potential customers and promote the company’s product line.
-Document customer inquiries in CRM system to provide customer and sales team detailed summary of required action to meet customer needs
-Continuously develop knowledge on XYZ products and their applications in industry
-Fully support company sales and marketing efforts
-Work to continually improve the quality of service offered to our customers and partners
-Follow up with customer after sale to resolve problems and to provide ongoing support
-Preserve and build sales relationships with current customers by providing ongoing support.
-Research and understand existing competitive and emerging products and technologies
-Providing more cost effective and optimum solution to client by comparing costs of installation and maintenance of various products.
-Develop and maintain an understanding of industrial networking and communication technologies.
-Provide technical training to inside sales team.
-Provide on sight assistance and training to customers when required.
-Troubleshoot technical problems and provide evaluations on equipment.

I can't really see how the job duties does not match noc 6221or persuasive enough. It doesn't match 100% for sure but according to me it does meet the 70% requirement. Another pair of eyes would greatly help in identifying if my duties are not up to the requirement.

Another note that's bothering me is that the "inconsistency of my loe duties to the chosen noc lead statement"

We have the same VO, except that we have recommended passed. Let's keep each other appraised.
According GCMS notes last update of my application was on Oct 4, this day my file was transferred to Warsaw. Does it mean they didn't touch it after that ?or when application is being processed outside Canada all updates are not reflected in GCMS?

I'm sorry. What jumps out of me is that 6221 is essentially a sales job, whereas yours is technical support / customer service job. Sure there's overlap between 2 jobs as shown in job duties, but the lead statement tells what the job is essentially about.

Ok .. That explains the story a bit. Dont mind, but for POF well above what is required raises flags (for certain countries it surely does). Again I am not an expert and explaining by the past cases in the forum. Rest assured, it should impact you much. Just to be safe, upload a renewed POF and explain accordingly ( suggested in the previous post as well) .

Want to understand why would POF well above what is required may become a problem.

Honestly speaking I have no clue why more than required POF should raise a flag. Though CIC has there own methods. I have some guesses as why they raise the flag, but uttering those reasons/guesses in the public forum may not be of any use. CIC are the bosses in this case.

That’s incorrect buddy. POF should be atleast minimum amount but maximum can be anything. I have seen people declaring more than 20000 Canadian dollars and have also received ppr without review required.

If you think logically, it’s good for their country if you carry more money. You would be spending those money there which is beneficial for them.

Review required for POF is usually when you don’t have proper documents or bank statements or the amount is less then mentioned on cic site.

Hope this clears any doubts you have.

Not in every case my Bud.. Not in every case bringing more money to Canada is going to do good. Think 'Logically'!! why they flag ? You may have seen people who might have got it without RR, but many of the members of this same forum have received RR for funds above (well above) the required limit. I had also described in my previous post that the excess money can be explained and backed by rationale.
