    I got a refusal in early October but my tracker is still showing background check in progress. The tracker even gets updated. It is better to check your gckey account for any messages.

    NOC is 63200. I have 7 years experience as a cook and I attached my experience letter so I don't know why the officer thinks I'm unable to do the job.
