    Updated Schedule 3 Hello there, I have a question to the applicants who updated their reference letters, did you update Schedule 3 as well? If so, was it a scanned copy or an original one as it had a signature? Thanks!

    My RA letter was signed by the supervisors, while the TA reference letter was signed by the Associate Dean (Graduate Studies). Normally, the HR letter just include the specific periods you worked and your salary, no details about the duties.

    I see, they send it via mail! Would you please share your reference letters, and specific reason for rejection. The first step to take is to contact an MP, he can get a faster answer form CIC. If you were convinced that there is somthing wrong in your reference letter then just apply again, if...

    I am sorry for your rejection! I do not see why you cannot have an appeal and another application in process, but I think it is better to ask a lawyer. What was the reason behind your rejection? It is 2 weeks from the decision. Good luck!

    I think Dani1982 could answer you this question better, but I believe he filed his appeal in February and got a settlement offer from CIC in May.

    You are right, the checklist does not require that, I just took a look. However, they reject people if it wasn't sign! They still do that with the FSW applicants but the PhD ones, they aren't interested in more researchers.

    This is really ridiculous! They could easily contact you or the employer to get a new one, or to make sure that it true and up to date.

    I agree with you Anna, they do not have any respect especially to the PhD stream. Did you see Dani's case? He was so brave to appeal although all of us just prefer to apply again.

    To all the applicants who updated their reference letter before, but nevertheless they were rejected because the reference letter failed to list job duties or responsibilities that match the actions described in the lead statement under [NOC 4012]. I highly encourage every one of you to file a...

    I believe that many applicants provided almost the same reference letter and were rejected because the leading statement was not explicitly mentioned, many applicants could turn the decision for their side if they went to the Federal Court. Thanks again for sharing your story with us, it will...
