Living and working in Ontario for the last 10.5 years. I applied for my PR in March 2020 through my lawyer and only got an answer yesterday. I have a closed visa and can only work for my company which is named on my visa. The lawyer said that because i receive a T4 and a salary i was employed and not self employed. Immigration said i was self employed and refused my application. The lawyers say i can reapply as self employed but it takes 37 months and i don't think i can go through the English test shit and medicine all over again as I'm now 53 and my life has been on hold long enough.
Arrived in Canada from Ireland with my family 2011 when my chgrildren were 10 and 12 now 21 and 23. My daughter is in university and my son had to turn down a police job because the PR was rejected. My son would now be aged out of any other PR applications because he is over 22. I employee 24 Canadians at present and before the pandemic it was 35. I have paid wages of over $900,000 in the last 4 years but all of that means jack. Looks like we will have to sell up and move and start again not something i really want to do at 53.
If anyone has any Ideas please let me know.
