Another horrible story here about an International student

http://m.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/new-immigration-rules-risk-leaving-international-students-behind/article22886693/?service=mobile

International students are indispensable intelligent resource for Canada. Maybe international students are currently saturated for Canada. But there will be a large vacancy as the EE system goes on. The immigration system will make changes correspondingly to grab these valuable intelligence. More recently, the threshold point will decline, I guess. In future, changes may happen to part of or the whole system. Let's wait for that moment....

I don't think CIC did anything wrong in this case. There was an obvious note on their stats webpage stating that those numbers were only provided as a guide and they wouldn't guarantee that if someone sends their file right away, it would get in for certain.

Please read this horrible story! I hope this guy could sue CIC. Because really CIC deserves to be sued!

Hi Guys,
What is the latest processing going on? Did anyone from late Sept or early Oct get MR or any correspondence from CIC?

Thanks.

1. Can ones who have been requested to provide additional documents such as 6-month bank statements and CV share how much time applicants have to wait between PER and doc requests?
2. About how much time would be delayed by the provision of additional documents such as changes of marriage status or employer?
Many thanks for ur replies and estimations....

Hi,

Has anyone here tried to find online status for your spouse? I couldn't find status for my wife. Is it normal?

Hi,

Yes, it is normal. You only can get the info of your spouse through GCMS if the consent form (from your spouse) is uploaded.

I am really sorry to hear that. May I ask you one question?! Have you already received PER and application number or you got rejected before receiving those?

I got rejected at the very first stage of the process, the Centralized Intake Office, where employees only receive 3 days of training and apparently can barely read. Had I received an application number maybe this could had been resolved.

Yes lawyers will not help you at all. I suggest PNP if in Ontario. Its very easy to be nominated if you are a PhD graduate. And Ontario PNP does not clasify for express entry. So once you get the nomination, you just have to apply for PR through the regular process.

Thanks pepe84, gavin_cic, bluelotus, Viva2014 for the useful advice. I agree that PNP is now my best option for PR. I will need to wait to graduate in order to be able to apply, which gives me plenty of time to think and reconsider my options. It's also likely that the PNP will evolve in the next years (months?) so I guess I'll stay alert.

I really do appreciate your help, best of luck to you guys and everyone else in this forum in all your future Canadian endeavours.
