Is that intention to refuse??

Do you know cases like that got nomination ??

What should I do exactly???

Thanks in advance

Is that intention to refuse??

No.This is a particular e-mail for additional documents. There must be something not so clear in your documents, hence this e-mail.

Do you know cases like that got nomination ??

Yes, you are good to go. Nothing to worry yet..

What should I do exactly???

Read the queries properly and provide most appropriate answers to their question. Infact, prepare a settlement plan including details and comparison about NOC Code. Also write an e-mail to the Noc code department of CIC. They shall confirm your NOC and you can forward this e-mail to the officer along with your other docs. This is a two day process (Max). Speed up and dont worry, if you satisfy them with your answers to their query, you will get nominations.

You have 58 points and even if you prove 1 year of experience you shall get 9 points that would make it 67. So, just relax and prepare yourself. Best of luck.

That is an intention to refuse. You need to address all the points listed. If there is anything you omitted, you need to add it in your response and make sure your points are up to 67 or above also provide valid company website address and reply within the stipulated time.

Good luck, if you have any question, you can message me

Why too much delay... Good question but answer is so easy "FIRST COME FIRST SERVE"
Another example to answer your question

One day a person give advertisement in news paper that will clean your house in 3 hours give us your name and its First come first serve.

A comes first and then B come after 1 minute and then C came after 1 minute of B after then so on....... till Z And advertise was same for everyone that get your house clean in 3 hours

For A: A just come and 3 hours and he get his house clean in 3 hours no wait
For B : it get start after 3 hours of A and then took 3 hours to clean so total time is 6 hours
For C: it get start after 6 hours of A and took 3 hours to clean so total time is 9 hours
------
------
-----
So On....

My question: Is that person took anytime more than 3 hours to clean house of anyone ? NO he did same thing for A, B and C...
So if B have to wait 6 hours and C have to wait 9 hours ...... is there any mistake from that person side????? He clearly mentioned in advertise that 3 hours to clean your house and its first come first serve and he is maintaining his words and working time.

So if B and C start blaming him are they right ? NO cause this delay is not because of NSOI this delay is because B and C... were too late to apply. there are many people before you in queue cause its First come First serve, NSOI never questioned you that program opened in January 2015 but why too much delay in applying ?

So if everyone calculate processing time as per their guideline you can easily expect the date and they are very much on time.
So if you apply in January 2015 you may expect AOR in march(after 3 months)but let say someone applied in October almost after 10 months so obviously you should expect something after 13 months.

Have patience you are in queue...!!! Do not get Frustrated unnecessarily. I know its hard but that is the reason I ask everyone to enter details in Spreadsheet so that we all have would have close idea that when can we expect something from NSOI and this way we will not frustrated.

If the number of application before us is less we have to wait less if its more we have to wait more.

Waiting time is directly proportional to number of application
Frustrating time is inversely proportional to number of entries in spreadsheet.

We cant reduce waiting time but we can reduce frustrating time: Just make your entry and feel the difference...

D

Is it sufficient if I send my supervisors contact details alone to the officer? or do I need to get another reference letter from my prev/current companies with this information, which is difficult to get within 10 business days. I am little confused and worried.


Experts please advice.

Hello Guys,
Even I'm waiting for an invitation. My reply to AOR was on 23rd Sept and now its more than a month I haven't heard anything from the case officer. I had a word with her, but she is just saying file is still under assessment. Can It be true ? How much time does they normally take ? or shud I consider this delay as a denial ?

Regards,
Samarth Patil

Hi Samarth

Well, how can you consider delay as denial? And they are saying your file is under assessment?!

For your reference I wish to share the dates I received correspondences from them.

Original application date: 6 August 2015

Pre AOR: 6 June 2016

AOR: 17 August 2016

Nomination: 7 September 2016

You will notice the interval between AOR and nomination in my case is less than a month. So your question is legit. But since I am in this forum for a long time I have seen some of our friends' applications have taken close to two months to get nominated from AOR date. On the other hand you will see the interval between pre-AOR and AOR for me was more than 2 months! Some received in a months' time! There seems to be no clear trend in the duration they take between their events.

In the past I have emailed NSOI directly about some of my doubts regarding application processing. They have replied to all my queries clearly and straightforward. So I wish to encourage you not to consider the delay as denial. They will clearly communicate to you if they find any ground for denial.

Relax, but be ready for ITA as the time for gathering documents like police clearance, medical etc are all time consuming and maybe little tedious. If you are not prepared, don't accept nomination immediately as you will have 30 days to accept the nomination. You can use those days to prepare documents. Once you accept nomination, ITA automatically happens with the following round.

All the best.

[Surbhigurpreet]

Sky walker and D and anybody who has filed or in process of filing reply to ITA
I have started downloading my documents. I have seen a weird thing that first they are asking for marriage certificate and then they are asking for proof of status. If we click at proof of status it says documents of the host including marriage certificate, birth certificate etc.
Now my queries are;

A. Do I have to upload marriage certificate twice?
B. Is that normal and happens with everybody?
C. I have checked my entire application I have nowhere that either my parents or spouse is in Canada.

Yes I have stated that I have an uncle but again he is not my blood relation, I am giving their citizenship card as proof for that.

But this proof of status is confusing. Plz help and thank u in advance
