    CEC - August 2014 application

    The article above talks mostly about PNP and Express entry. Here if u obtain a PNP and then add it to ur EE u get additional points. Moreover the first paragraph means that any application that was submitted before EE will be processed as per the rules before EE. Nowhere it says that if you...

    Hmm, I believe then while requesting refund they ask you the reason for refund and why you decided to withdraw the application . State a solid reason and they should refund the fees.

    CEC - August 2014 application

However it might be specific cases unless people who have been rejected got a rejection reason which states that they Eligibility has not been passed . Also I saw a user who has done medicals...

    I am really not sure my friend if you have done upfront medicals. For EE to submit your profile you have to do upfront medical. If you've done one already for CEC, then should ask a lawyer if the same will be valid for EE and if you can still create your EE profile.

    CEC - August 2014 application

    I do understand that based on the new rules on Dec 1st its mentioned that there are two requirements : 1. AOR AND 2. Positive Eligibility on PR application. However Many of us discussed this during the last week and I checked with CIC and my lawyer and got this response: Only CIC can...

    CEC - August 2014 application

    If you have sent the Current WP, AOR and Copy of your passport and have filled the form correctly then , yours should not be rejected, just because some people are getting rejections does not mean that if you apply now, it will be rejected and if you apply later it will be approved. Also if...

    CEC - August 2014 application

    I believe you can withdraw it once you logon to your CIC account. If they have not started processing , you'll be able to withdraw it. If you can withdraw it, you can request for refund. For How to request a refund : http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?q=619&t=4 Consult a...

    CEC - August 2014 application

    That might help, however there is pressure on CIC already, my lawyer attended CIC conference in Ottawa last month and they mentioned that they are targeting to clear all CEC 2014 applications in 2016. They also want one system of Express Entry going forward. This is a personal suggestion that at...

    CEC - August 2014 application

    Thanks for clarifying that, Yes CEC and FSW are dealt in different ways ! Guys , please lets avoid extra stress and keep this forum for CEC only . We spent 2 days worrying so much because someone said that we are all not eligible for BOWP unless the eligibility changes. Any Aug 2014 applicant...

    CEC - August 2014 application

    I once went to Service Ontario as my WP expired and so did my health card, however, they issue health card based on your immigration document which is your work permit. I am waiting to get my extended work permit to apply for renewal of my health card. Do go to the nearest Service Ontario and...

    BOWP Rules Changed !!!!

    I Agree, if you are applying for extension to remain in canada as a worker while your PR application is in process it is implied that you're applying for BOWP. By the way in the form you have to select Open Work Permit as there is no other option specified as "BOWP".

    Ok Guys, I just got off the phone with my lawyer and He mentioned that CIC has delayed the eligibility check due to high volumes of files and even though this new rule was stated on CIC website they would approve BOWP if you have AOR and do not worry about the Eligibility in GCMS notes as the...

    CEC - August 2014 application

    I understand my friend, the only way to find out if as of today the eligibility is passed or not is by calling CIC with your UCI #. It does not make sense for CIC to first delay the eligibility check and then make it a qualifier for a BOWP. However, talk to the lawyers / immigration consultants...
