    I ordered GCMS notes just yesterday. I am hoping to get my passport back with visa before I get the notes :)

    FSW 2014 - CPC OTTAWA - Visa Office - Let's Connect Here

    Thanks! They didn't ask for the photographs, I suppose the photographs I had sent with the application were accepted. I am in Ottawa, so going to send via Priority Canada Post mail and enclose a Canada Post National envelope (even though I am in Ottawa, going to follow the instructions and get...

    It's very silly to discuss this topic on this forum any further. Anyone who is not genuinely interested in Canada shouldn't spend that much time on this thread worrying about their application every day. If life is so great in the UK, why not enjoy your achievements at present and if you have no...

    I can see 2 June 23rd applicants' entries that got PER yesterday, both of them are not active on this forum or maybe active under different names. Anyways, I checked my ECAS and it shows in process, really awaiting that PER email! Hopefully CIO will send it early next week.

    I think he can claim his experience as a chef as well, because in Canada chef is a skilled occupation and falls under the technical level B. Even cook is a level B occupation. The second digit in NOC determines the skill level. 2 and 3 are technical skill B, anything more than 3 is not qualified...

    I am sorry, but your answer is wrong. Yes, she can study while on LCP, she should read on CIC website how to apply for a Study Permit. Even part-time studies require a Study Permit if the program is longer than 6 months. She will be eligible to pay Canadian fees as long as her Work Permit for an...

    somebody posted all the stages of the process earlier today. But even from the statement you just posted, it is very confusing. Because they don't return anything if you fail to get 67 points but you meet the ministerial instructions otherwise. Can you explain this point?

    I see what you mean but the reality contradicts the processing stages described in their manual. Why are they mentioning a refund after failing eligibility review? As far as I understand refund is only possible on the completeness check stage, after the completeness check the application goes...

    I've read this many times and it doesn't make sense because they keep saying that after an application is in process no refund can be issued. So it looks like NER is actually the next step and not just an alternative for PER. You get a UCI number when you get PER, but you get an actual...

    You are welcome. Failed on selection means didn't meet criteria for being selected,in other words didn't satisfy the officer that he was able to be economically established in Canada. It's just their policy, you have to have 67 points, although in the past officers had authority to assign extra...

    Unfortunately, they don't refund the fee or return the application in case of NER. My husband applied in 2011 and we also were short of a few points. We sent an email to ask about a refund and we got this answer back then: Dear Sir/Madam: Your application was assessed and it was determined...

    Thanks a lot. I am just picking on all the little details after our first application in 2011 was rejected.
