Work Experience: NOCE 2282 declared. As per application , PA has been exployed by XYZ company as a computer technical support since 04/04/2011.

and Status : Review required


Application recieved by cic : Nov 9, 2012
Notes were added by visa officer on Aug 14, 2013
and i applied for my GCMS notes on 9th Sept, 2013 .They havnt touched my application since thn and its still waiting to get reviewed by another visa officer i guess.

My job letter had my job description in one line and thats why they think its not sufficient. I am wondering if i should send them an updated letter with job duties in details or what should i do. Please let me know if someone has faced a similar experience

I will really appreciate it

YOUR BEST BET: get an updated letter that includes your roles and responsibilities in detail, and request that it get added to your application, but you have to act with lightning speed, if its not too late already.

hparcha: do you mind posting exactly what is in the GCMS notes with sensitive details redacted?
hparacha said:
I have a review required because I worked for two companies in the same year and the second job, the pay was significantly higher.
The job titles were the same and the job duties pretty much the same. One was a bigger company so they paid better.

Anything I can do? This is really dumb.

Thanks!

Do a lot of applications get refused for job duties that are not detailed enough? Or is there an opportunity to resubmit with more detailed duties?

I could be wrong, but it seems to me that the credibility of the letters may be under question, given that two autonomous companies wrote you the exact same letter? Were both letters from the different companies 100% identical in content?

FOSS/GCMS check : no adverse info. Temporary resident status authorised during CEC qualifying period. Civil status : never married, no spouse/CLP and no childer decalared. Work Experience: NOCE 4163 declared. Letters dated 27 AUGU 2012 confirm dates of employment position at company salary of Xk. Letter provides a list of duties which correspond to NOC 2011. Letters dated August 28 2012 from company X confirm dates of employment and salary of Xk. * Note the list of job duties is identical for both letters while the difference in salary is signifigant. Review Required.
No additonal documents required at this time.

Does anyone has any idea about the process of review required. Do they review it from scratch or is it just a formality and they will go as per last officer's review

Ahh, I see. I’m not sure what more you can do. I have an inkling you will be ok. Having status as “Review required” does not necessarily mean your application will be rejected. It just means further scrutiny is required. If both your letters include all the necessary info, and are verifiable, they cannot reject you solely on the basis that one company paid you more than the other. Keep us posted and good luck.

the profession I am in is pretty standard, the job descrptions are 99% the same
the only difference in the jobs is how large the accounts are ie.. how much a client is spending
the letters are genuine with proper HR contacts etc..

not sure what i can do?

thank you very much for saying that - I am hoping that is what happens and praying for it too.

Under the eligibility it says date due: December 2 2013

not sure what that means?

The majority of refusals I've seen around here are because the job duties do not match the NOC descriptions

my guess is they set "internal deadlines" for when certain steps have to be completed, so this essentially means your eligibility must be reviewed by Dec 2. Unclear as to whether this would be a final eligibility review.
