Got a refusal letter guys. Very bad day..
NOC mismatch it seems.
Dear Manhar Singh:
I have now completed the assessment of your application for a permanent resident visa as a skilled worker. I have determined that you do not meet the requirements for immigration to Canada.
Section 11.2 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act directs that an officer may not issue a visa or other document in respect of an application for permanent residence to a foreign national who was issued an invitation under Division 0.1 to make such an application if – at the time the invitation was issued or at the time the officer received their application – the foreign national did not meet the criteria set out in an instruction given under paragraph 10.3(1)(e) or does not have the qualifications on the basis of which they were ranked under an instruction given under paragraph 10.3(1)(h) and were consequently issued the invitation.
Citizenship and Immigration Canada invited you to apply for permanent resident status based on the qualifications you claimed in your Express Entry profile. Those qualification claims and the accompanying Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) points awarded were summarized in your invitation letter.
The Ministerial Instructions for the Express Entry Application Management System state that in order to be assigned points under section 23 or 24 for their foreign work experience, a foreign national must specify in their expression of interest the four-digit code in the National Occupational Classification (NOC) that corresponds to each of the occupations they have engaged in while accumulating their foreign work experience; and must have performed the actions described in the lead statement for the occupation as set out in the occupational descriptions of the National Occupational Classification, as well as a substantial number of the main duties, including all essential duties, as set out in the National Occupational Classification.
In your Express Entry profile you indicated that you have foreign work experience. You have not satisfied me that you have performed the lead statement of NOC 6221; which states, Technical sales specialists, wholesale trade, sell a range of technical goods and services, such as scientific, agricultural and industrial products, electricity, telecommunications services and computer services, to governments and to commercial and industrial establishments in domestic and international localities.
You declared you were employed under this NOC for Airtel. There is insufficient evidence on file to satisfy me that you provided wholesale telecom services to governments and to commercial and industrial establishments in domestic and international localities.
For your experience with Mitashi, there is insufficient evidence on file to satisfy me that you provided wholesale sales services to governments and to commercial and industrial establishments in domestic and international localities.
You have submitted letter of offer dated June 16, 2015 from XXXXX (my current company); there is insufficient evidence on file to satisfy me that you have this work experience. I am therefore not satisfied that you have provided sufficient evidence of having acquired foreign work experience.
PR-EC-SW-refusal letter-minimum requirements not met
In accordance with section 11.2 of the Act and Subsection 82(1) of the Regulations, I am refusing your application because I have found that you do not possess the qualification on the basis of which you were ranked under an instruction given under paragraph 10.3(1)(h). This change in your qualifications resulted in a loss of points that brought your rank below the lowest ranking person who was invited to apply in your round, under the Express Entry Comprehensive Ranking System.
Following an examination of your application, I am not satisfied that you meet the requirements of the Act and the regulations for the reasons explained above. I am therefore refusing your application.
You will receive a refund of the Right of Permanent Residence Fee that you have paid
You must remove your Job Seeker profile from the Job Bank website as you are no longer an Express Entry candidate. You must also remove any references that you are a candidate for Express Entry from any private job board websites, if you used any.
Subsection 11(1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) states that a foreign national must, before entering Canada, apply to an officer for a visa or for any other document required by the regulations. The visa or document shall be issued if, following an examination, the officer is satisfied that the foreign national is not inadmissible and meets the requirements of this Act. Subsection 2(2) specifies that unless otherwise indicated, references in the Act to “this Act” include regulations made under it.
Thank you for the interest you have shown in Canada.
Sincerely,
ES10632
Immigration Officer
