Many thanks for your very useful information. I will let you know the result ASAP.
Urgent need! My case has been cancelled due to absurd reasons
- Thread starter Modmad
- Start date
@farazafzal - I too have recently raised a CSE as by mistake in my Marriage certificate documents I attached scan of Affidavit of translator for 'Birth Certificate' instead of Affidavit of Translator for 'Marriage certificate'. They are the same person from same Translation office and the appearance of the document was the same and I made a mistake during scanning and sadly I noticed only after uploading and transmitting. I raised a CSE and explained the situation and uploaded the corrected documents.
However- after reading your posts above please note the following:
- I have NOT attached a scan of the Original Marriage Certificate.
I have uploaded only the following:
- Colour Scan of Certified copy of 'Nikah Nama' (Marriage certificate in Urdu) with stamps of Notary Public notarizing it to take effect on all continents and stamp declaring "Certified True Copy of Marriage Certificate"
-- The Translation of the certificate by a certified Translator from Translation office - I had it also notarized by the same Notary who notarized my Certified True copy.
-- Affidavit of the translator - notarized by same Notary
-- Affidavit signed by the Notary Public on PKR 100 Stamp paper with his full name address and license as Oath Commissioner/Notary Public declaring that he has certified true copies and notarized them.
Will not uploading the scan of the original marriage certificate be an issue? Could I also have my application cancelled because of this? Very worried now. Kindly advise..

You should have uploaded the original color scanned copy too !
You don't have to worry, and send another CSE with correct documents !
This time scan all documents you have mentioned above as well as the original Nikah certificate ! (I am saying this as I am afraid you might only send the original marriage certifcate only this time) Make roads easy for CIC, facilitate them so that they understand your concerns, and address them appropriately, instead of confusing them more.
Good luck !
@farazafzal .....No I am really worried ...should I then also upload scans of the originals of the following:
1. My Kids Original Birth Certificates
2. Degrees & s Original Certificates
3. My Aunts Original Birth Certificates (as claiming points)
4. NICOP Originals
5. NADRA Family Registration Original
For all these documents, I uploaded all CERTIFIED TRUE COPIES as these photocopies had stamps of ministry of Foreign Affairs in Kuwait on the back and so I certified those through a Notary Public who has written date and stamped it as 'Certified True Copy of the Original"; along with Gold Seal of Oath Commissioner and stamp stating that it is notarized to take effect in all Continents. I thought that as I had sent these same copies for my Provincial Nomination via paper they would be accepted.
Wouldn't it be a cause for concern to them if I suddenly started sending all these documents to them all over again? Also there is the 2MB limitation per CSE....and I don't know if I will be able to send all of these at one time.

Certified true copies of these documents are accepted, so no worries there. Only case where you shall upload scanned original in color is for PCC (there it does not make much sense to upload copies anyway).
Send them a Case Specific Enquiry because if its their mistake, they will reopen your application. Happened to others too.
If you know where your case is being processed, you can contact that Visa office directly through CSE or by mail!
Yeah, but the biggest problem doing that is that they take at least one month to reopen the case and then start processing. One could lose a lot (like CRS increase) during that time period!
CIC should start canceling applications within one month from application like they used to do before. Also they need to have quicker response for the CSEs that reach them as CIC's mistake. Not everyone can raise a CSE stating CIC's mistake. Only few cases like this could do that. So they would get only real mistakes or at least the ones that seem to be real mistake.
This cancellation is so scary.
In order to find out where your case is being processed, send the following e-mail to CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca
You will need to communicate them your application number!
Subject: E000XXXXXX - Visa Office
"Hello,
I am trying to find out in which Visa office my application is being processed?
Application number: E000XXXXXX
Date of Birth: YYYY-MM-DD
Last Name: ...
First Name: .....
UCI: -
Category of Immigration: Federal Skilled Worker
Best regards"
Shortly after you will get an answer. Then contact me if you want, I will direct you further. If you already know where you are being processed, share information here.
You can at least try, of course its not a guarantee it will work, CIC is overloaded AND making silly mistakes.. disturbing I agree but you have to try everything in your power!!!

But if the mistake is theirs and he can prove it, then there s no other option for them but to reopen!!
They should cancel everyone who has incomplete app. in the first month yes, but unfortuntely its 55-60 days for most.
I can remember , I read your (farazafzal) reply few days ago that a marriage certificate issued by NADRA
Is enough. I followed your advice. It is simple one and verifiable (I guess).

For those who asked me for elaboration:
I have uploaded all certified copies of my original documents exactly according to the CIC instruction (notary public certified and so on) + their certified translation (again exactly according to instruction). I have an experienced registered lawyer in Canada doing the job and double checked everything. He's got surprised when the case rejected. He sent a CSE to them however he is not optimistic at all that CIC take the problem serious. We are now looking forward to their answer and likely clarification.
For people who like to know more info about my case:
My total score:457
IELTS: overall 7.5 and R7.5 L8 W7 S.7
Medical: Passed just a couple of days before rejection
I got ITA in January and uploaded my case 40 days after that.
I live in and apply from Iran
My lawyer is in Canada
The rejection reason: incomplete docs
(Original marriage certificate)
Those who may have reliable info please advise. I would appreciate.

Yes. But as long as I don't know the real reason of rejection, another application might have the same result. REJECTION FOR INCOMPLETENESS. That is why, I am trying to find out what caused them not to see/consider my marriage cert.
