Hi all,

Anyone studied in IGNOU university. Does CIC recognise this as accredited University or we have to prove it to CIC ?
My wife did her Master from IGNOU and now wondering this..
Any help will be appreciated.

Cheers,
Deepak..
 
IGNOU is an accredited University.

All courses in IGNOU are recognized and affiliated by AICTE.

AICTE is approved by UGC ( under Professional Council)

Hi pv/rajnik1976 ,

Thank you very much for your advice.. I have couple of more questions if you can guide me through..

1) How important is University sealed envelope while sending Transcripts ? I have studied in india and i did not get university envelope though i have all the original transcripts with me.. We are in UK at the moment and its very hard for us to get the University sealed envelopes from india.

2) "Original and up-to-date letters of reference from your past and current employers" -
I have all the work experience related documents but does this means i have to get latest letter of reference from previous employer. I left my previous employer couple of years back and i know one of them is already closed down but i do have work experience documents from them.
Does this affect my application if i am not suppliing the up to date reference letter ? i can get one from my current employer but not sure of my previous employments.

Many thanks for your help ..

Regards,
Deepak

I sent them as an notarized copies, hoping it will work ]

[hard to tell, what CIC wants is that your ref/exp letter should be self explanatory ie. roles and duties should be clearly mentioned most important is for the NOC you are applying. Based on your ref letter CIC will determine if you are eligible for the NOC applied. I had my all exp letters from previous employers but none of them had roles / duties mentioned so I approached them again and got what I wanted, I told them this is required for Canada Immigiration. From current employer I requested them to issue me a employment verification letter along with duties and roles I am performing / performed and also mentioned to them that I need this for Canada Visa ( did not mentioned abt PR) and they issued me.
Any company which is closed, you should mentioned in letter and tell them that why you could not get latest ref letter. ]


Good Luck
