You will need to have the minimum funds before you are issued the visa. This is a strict requirement and you are expected to have maintained the amount until you land. You shouldn't have messed up with the minimum funds.

In my opinion, this was the main reason that they denied you. You overdid your documents. The Green Card application screwed it for you. By volunteering your intention, you severed your tie to your home country and all the documents that you presented to show your ties to your home country...

i'm not sure if you could withdraw your file by email. they said a 'signed letter' and how would you sign an email? others can confirm if they withdrew by email. this is the case-specific-enquiry form (i assume your visa office is london)...

yes, you can.

they say, for withdrawal, a signed written request. so email is not an option. but you can also write the signed request, scan it and attach it on the case-specific-enquiry form. you can then post the paper request afterwards.

ihosam: sadly, with only 59 points, they will reject your application and forfeit your money. the embassy put it clearly that you will be refunded if your application is not yet paper-screened. unfortunately, no one will tell you whether the embassy paper-screened your application or not...

i was referring to this quote above. your case could not be approved unless you scored 67 points (or 66, in some exceptional cases). if i understood you right, you were advising the OP to wait to hear back from CIC when he has scored only 59 points. anyhow, no worries. ihosam: you gotta read...

the reply from CIC is a standard response to inform you that your documents are in order, but not assessed yet. with 55+4=59points, it's an outright rejection. so if u can get your money back, i suggest you should asap. if you request for more time, they may not give you. they may have their own...

thank you, bsrk68, for your response. about the menial jobs: yea, desperate times call for desperate measures. if we are left with no alternative, that's the last resort and we will need to take whatever menial jobs available to us. thanks for the wishes and happy holidays to you too.

hi bsrk68, really, a good service you are providing for new and aspiring immigrants. thumbs up. yea, like you said, canada is a tough place for a new immigrant. unfortunately, to make it in canada, one needs to know someone somewhere. in my experience, to get a job, it's not what you actually...

if u sent ur passport, for stamping, after u got married and did not tell them about it, ur PR visa will be revoked.

any paid work in a university (that is tallied with a PhD program) will only and most likely be taken as a 'postgraduate research/teaching assistant' position, no matter what the nature of the actual task is. the immigration officers are usually not stupid enough to consider a research...

sorry. i meant, documents are returned if the refusal is from CIO sydney, NS. to my knowledge, visa offices of embassies do not normally return documents.

reymund, im afraid to say so, but it is a rejection. and when they reject they return all the documents with an accompanying letter. u gotta wait for the letter and find out the reason of the refusal. u can not assume anything at this stage. unless u provided an obviously fake document or...

this cannot be true. in principle, it is illegal to send a PR card overseas by post.

this statement is completely wrong. the application form explicitly asks if one has ever been refused any visa, anywhere, anytime.

it's an implicit law that immigrants are expected to be able to communicate in English well. a basic english is just not good enough, and could be a ground for denial.

certain subtle info, which defy logic, has little to do with seniority or age. sometimes, regardless of expertise, u do know this info or u just don't. for the OP: yes, there is indeed a law enacted for not sending a PR card across the canadian border by post. the phrase says (unquote), if a...

yes, you have to take a full list of GOODS TO FOLLOW at the time of landing. if u don't provide them with this list when you land, you will have to pay taxes on them when u bring them later with you. so, prepare a list, estimate the corresponding price of each item on the list, sum the total...
