This is a very bad news for old applicants and we all have to support the aggrieved parties.

There are followig points from my side for legal case:

1-Why the minister did not look at the backlog pool applicants for professions in demand before picking the categories for professions in demand for M1,M2, M3.??This is huge megligence on thier part.

2-If the minister had taken this decesion to return the back log applicants in June 2010,before the announcement of M1, M2, M3
categories , the old applicants could apply in new categories, but now they cannot apply as thier categories have dropped from the lists ,by doing that the minister has spoiled the future of old applicants which is not totally thier fault.This fact should be put before the parliament.

3-what a huge comparison that at one side the immigration department of canada has admitted that thousands of immigrants have obtained canadian nationality by Fraud in past and the department has done nothing against them whereas on the other side there are innocent applicants before 2008 who are waiting since 6-7 years and want to contribute to canadian economy by fair means , but without thier fault they are being punished.

4. I think a competent lawyer should win this case. Because in Uk it was happened in "Judicial Review" in HSMP cases.
 
Khulsai,
Thanks.....Please who sent the letter? was it CIC or Province of Ontario?
 
Oppose the decision made on 29/3/2012 about the proposal to return all the applications filed for permanent residence in Canada under Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) category before 27/2/2008 is very frustrating for the prospective immigrants who have waited patiently since long years for their turn to come up and has left them devastated and hopeless in the end.

We all should raise our voice against this injustice. PLEASE oppose this decision by sending e-mails to all the members of parliament:

REPLY OF LETTER FROM MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT:
================================


Good Morning,

Thank you for taking the time to write to me with your concerns about the decision to return all Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) applications that were made prior to February 27, 2007.

I agree that this approach is grossly unfair to people who have been planning to make a new home in Canada. The people who are affected have followed all the rules, done everything we have asked of them and waited patiently, for up to 8 years, for us to uphold our part of the bargain.

Legislating away the backlog in this manner is an admission of failure on the part of the Government. Instead of addressing the backlog, the Government is simply pretending it does not exist. This policy essentially allows those who applied since early 2008 to queue jump ahead those who applied before. This is not fair.

Recently, the Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration conducted a study and made several recommendations on how to reduce the backlog of applications. We proposed several prudent and sensible ways to address the massive backlog. The Minister has chosen to ignore all of these proposals and proceed with a scheme that will destroy the plans and dreams of thousands of people who have prepared make Canada their home.

Thank you again for taking the time to express your concerns. If you have not already, I strongly suggest you write to Minster Jason Kenney and the Prime Minister to let them know your objections.

Warm regards,

Don

All are hopes for future depend on enlightened MPs such as Mr Davies. Otherwise, our five years of hope and wait will go in vain and would devastate tens of thousands of skilled people whose future is aligned to this horrible decision.
 
Hi All,

Just wanted to know if anyone has received any request from London office who applied in 2007?

I was reading through this forum "For Applicants of 2007 (in London): Has Anyone received documents update letter?" and came to know that few people have received request to submit documents and few even have got visa issued who applied in the same year. So if anyone who has insight can provide information as which year is currently under process for applicant who originally applied in Islamabad.
 
dear in which month of 2007 u applied and have u sent doc.
saleem
 
Hi Saleem,

Thanks for the reply.

I applied in Sep 2007, and no I haven't send any documents yet as I haven't been requested.

Secondly during this time I got married and now I've a 3.5 years old kid but I haven't updated CIC about this, do I need to update them? or just wait and when the time comes and they ask for documents then send the updated info.

Thanks.
 
i applied in sep 2006 and no request of doc updation yet
 
i will suggest u both apply for caips and see wt is current situation and wt visa officer rote inur file
 
@msaleem216 can you please provide some more information on how to do that. Probably some link which can help us.

Thanks.
