Hi recently submitted a PR application and it was rejected because the ECA I got from Wes said for employment and not for immigration purpose. Bare in mind I ordered a recent ECA because I needed one for my provincial nomination. When I got the notification about the ECA I just submitted the recent one I got because the request didn’t specify that we needed it for immigration purpose. This is very frustrating because the letter they sent requesting a ECA didn’t say it needed to say for immigration. Why couldn’t they have clarified that it needed to be sent from Wes. Could this be amended ? Now I don’t know the next step because I submitted a work permit and restoration of status application base on being nominated by the province and now since the incomplete/ rejection what do I do? I need help. Will I have to get another nomination ? How long is my pnp nomination valid for ?

ECA requirements are outlined in several places on the IRCC site (including the below) and specify that the ECA must be for immigration purposes. If the right ECA is not submitted, this means the application is incomplete which results in refusal.

You can send a case specific inquiry to see if IRCC will reopen your application. You must submit the right ECA with that request.
