Tuye your point of view is built upon a misunderstanding of the situtation ,,,,there are many points which are mixed up for you
The only person here who's mixed up is you.

You lost all your credibility when you accused me of lying (regarding the story of people lining up in the rain for part-time jobs).

So you can continue to ramble all you want, but I'm not wasting any more of my time replying to you.

As I already stated (many times, quite clearly), the economic conditions in Canada have changed. Demand for foreign workers today is not what it used to be in 2008, and certainly not what it used to be in 2004.

Hi tuyen,

I applied in 2004 and updated my documents in 2008 and processing has already begun. My occupation is in demand in canada(as per CIC demand list of MI 2 and MI 3) and thousands of dentists applied again in MI 2 and 3 and cic processed their application from the start while my updated application under process was untouched. If Canadian economy doesnot need dentists then they should not invite new dentist applicants. Is nt it? They have not opened 280000 applications . Without opening them and knowing whether they are needed to the economy or not how can they delete those applications from the system and accept more applications again and again? Howcan they accept new applications from dentists without accepting or refusing my application which was made as per the law in 2004?
It's entirely possible that dentists WERE in demand in 2004, but I can't imagine that is still the case today. The reason is very simple: I live here, and I can see that every dentist office I pass by, the majority of them have signs saying "Yes, we're accepting new patients!" Contrast that to 90% of every doctor's office that I pass by, and the sign on the window says "Sorry, we are not accepting new patients."

If Justice Barnes rules favourably on Tim Leahy's motion in December 2012, then CIC will be forced to process the litigants files on priority basis within 4 or 6 months. In that case, the files would not be case managed and all of Tim's clients would get their files processed by mid 2013. By mid 2013, some may start landing in Canada while the others might be getting ready to leave their residing countries. To which group will you belong? It is for you to decide. ;D

Hi , I am a regular reader of this forum but nothing much to write. The info those being posted here by my fellow members are amazing and no doubt useful. Factually I am also in the same boat and passing time with great agony. I applied back in Jan 2008. Slaughtered as I am a month late. I appointed him to play on my behalf in the Federal Court along with Ceceil. Rottenberg. Surprisingly my lawyer doesn't update me although I knocked him several times. Perhaps he is running a group under CANADA CLASS ACTION.COM Frankly I am more conversant now about the legal proceedings by reading the post here. Can anyone tell me if we succeed in the federal court, shall that be a positive stands for all the litigants or only the client of Tim Leahy ??? I am wondering

Regards
Benediction

Thanks for your compliments Benediction. You are welcome. :)

If Justice Barnes rules favourably on Tim Leahy's motion, then the people who would stand to gain immediately are Tim's clients (over 1300 litigants). But this favourable ruling, if it happens, will for sure be considered as a positive for the class action lawsuit. It will give a world of hope to the lawyers and the litigants of class action lawsuit. This will prompt those applicants who have still not joined any litigation group to quickly join a lawsuit, so that they can also get benefited and not remain left out. :D

Here is Tim Leahy's recent reply to a query from an applicant.

Mr. Tim Leahy, I'm a new member and I want to join your litigation. I hope it is not too late. Please guide me in this matter. I need your email or phone # so I can discuss my case with you. Thanks.


Thank you, Zape for your interest. My email address is: TEL@unfairCIC.com.

And, yes, you may join the litigation I initiated on 28 October 2011, asking the Court to order CIC to process warehoused FSW applications. At present, I really don't know whether I have one group or three. However, until the Court rules on my motion, asking it to enforce the Agreement CIC and I made in February, I do not know whether everyone will have their files processed promptly, only those who joined before June 14th or none of them.

Those whose files will not be processed will become a part of the so-called class-action lawsuit. Thus, if you decide to join our group, you will have two chances for success.

In order to join, I would need to know the following:
1. the name the Embassy is using for the principle applicant,
2. the visa post,
3. your file number,
4. city and state where you will sign the agreement and
5. your telephone number(s).

The fee to join is $400 CAD and, if we are successful, $1,100 CAD additional. "Success" means that your file will be finalized before the end of next year. Payment may be made in Canada, the US or the Philippines. (We do not accept credit cards but will accept personal cheques drawn on Canadian or US bank accounts.)

All the submissions for the motion have been before the Court since September 13th. Once the managing judge makes his ruling – and he said on September 27th that he does not know when he will do so – the group will close. If he does so before you have joined, as I said, you would be a part of the litigation challenging the closing of the FSW files. I do not expect to be filing new cases until November 12th.

Here is Tim Leahy's reply, made a few days ago, to a query from another applicant.

Saranjit Singh R: If someone from India applied in Aug 2004 and updated in Dec 2008 for FSW, what are the chances now?

Tim L: On June 29th, CIC closed all FSW files lodged before 27 February 208 and not assessed by March 28th. Unless your file was assessed, it is now closed.

Various lawyers are challenging that decision. I initiated litigation just over a year ago, asking the Court to process my litigants' FSW files. On February 3rd, CIC agreed in writing to "be guided by" the representative case in disposing of the other litigants' applications but has refused to do so for those files which were closed two weeks after the winning decision. We continue to wait for Justice Barnes to rule on my motion, asking him to enforce the agreement. If he does so, the 1,300 litigants who are a part of the unfairCIC.com group will have their files assessed and finalized. If he dismisses the motion, they will become a part of those challenging the closing of the files.

On November 23rd and 30th, Justice Barnes will hear arguments concerning the certifying that litigation as a class-action. If he does so, your file (and all the others) will be benefit from the ultimate ruling on the legal challenge to the closing of the files. If he does not certify a group, only those who sign on with one lawyer or another will benefit directly from the Court's ruling on the matter.

Dear All,

I want to know all those who have made Updation & till date (More
than 3 1/2 years have passed on), whether CIC New Delhi may have
checked the files in details.

as i have Updated Documents in late 2008 allocated marks to each
section. i also recieved Ontario Pilot Backlog Project Invitation &
forwarded all my documents to them but till date i have not got any
invitation from them.

So can you please throw some light with your background knowledge as
what is the outcome of all those who have updated in 2008 from New
Delhi.

In next hearing what will be the output whether it will be class
action or lead management case. what can you predict from all these
about the future of litigation.

In India there was huge protest against prime minister visit. but
don't know what will happen in future about us.

waiting for your prompt response.

Hi ,
warmest , why r u so hopeful of tim's litigation & injustice barns. its quite clear he is a poodle of keney and will only screw all the litigants. if he was true justice , motion would have passed long ago and litigants file processed. the only one benefiting from this is the lawyer who is still adding clients promising HOPE . now pl WAKE UP - ---

Thank you Aquila for your kind post to raise our spirits. It is very provoking that someone is trying to justify the unfair situation which CIC has put us through,,,,and then at the end, not being able to support his original arguments, says a couple of bad words and leaves,,, so immature.
Hopeful: I better not respond, not one single word, to anyone in this forum who is putting down your spirit to attain your Canadian dream. We, all of us, better seek other ways to get there, beyond the litigation. Our precious time can be put to good use in finding effective means to reach where we wanted to go. I already made initial steps to apply for admission to McGill University for a Master in Social Work degree. I understand that Social Work is one of the in demand jobs in Canada, included in the 29 priority jobs listed for FSW3.

Heads up! Keep moving and lift up your spirit! God loves you
