    Application Refused but it is complete!! Now What?

    Funny thing is I did submit the PR application the "old" way. Prior to this I submitted 3 TRV applications online the new way and no problems whatsoever. Got these turned around and approved in record time. So it's kind of hit and miss.

    Scanning Documents to upload JPG vs PDF

    As long as you stay within their parameters (size and file type) you should be ok. It says on their website the types/sizes of acceptable files. Just FYI I did all mine in PDF. I used this link, it was simple and made my life a whole lot easier. https://online2pdf.com/

    Love the quote :D. However seeing as my app. was returned intact, even with everything they asked for, and we have a photocopy, I am not sure if taking photos is a definitive method of proof either. It would be interesting to figure out how to create some way of ensuring that CIC could be...

    Application Refused but it is complete!! Now What?

    In your case submitting online can be one step ahead of the paper applications because they are still offering you a faster alternative to resubmit online. In our case we cannot do that, it is not an option for paper applications, even though it could have been if our application was properly...

    Application Refused but it is complete!! Now What?

    Well this is some kind of "strange" comfort ;) to know that it is not in my own imagination either. Now I may have to do some more research based on some of the replies I am getting. I will try to dig into their operating standards and see if I can find anything relevant or useful for this...

    Interesting observation Landagirl. I have not been on the forum very much recently so I do not really have a good sense of any trends. When I was waiting for my husband to be approved for PR (over 3 years ago) I was on constantly and read a lot of family threads and it is true, you can see...

    Thanks for the reply CW. As mentioned in my reply to aquakitty, I will try the Minister's office first and simultaneously call around to some other MPs. I guess their hiring approach was a bit of a "warm body" tactic. Just throw some people in there to satisfy some bureaucratic quota and hope...

    Hi janangela, as per my reply to aquakitty: " I have called Ahmed Hussen's local office directly and left a message and have also e-mailed his CIC Minister's office with details. One of the things that I think might work in our favour is that they said the receipt was missing- it was not of...

    Application Refused but it is complete!! Now What?

    You are correct, this will for sure be the path of least resistance for them and technically it is true, we have no way of definitively proving our case. So hopefully I will get some kind of sensible help or intervention of sorts from someone at the Minister's office. If it were not for the...

    Thanks Aquakitty. Yes some of the documents are dated and we got the package photocopied at the same place we sent the original courier (FedEx) package from. So we have the delivery receipt and the receipt for the number of pages we copied. I can also check the browser history log and take a...
