It was sent by FA****. My previous correspondence with Ottawa were from NN***** (when I sent in my PCCs proactively) and RK**** (document request). I have no idea what the different letters mean. I have ordered my GCMS and I should receive it in abut a week or 2. I never made an entry for Quebec resident as far as I know but my address, my school and my TA/RA experience are all in Quebec but I clearly indicated that I intended to live in Toronto.
Hi Kiwignd
I was going through your post again and dug up posts from Crazyleader, wording of the two letters he received from FA**** are as below:
"I am writing you this letter to express my serious concerns regarding your application for permanent residence in Canada under the Canadian Experience Class.
As per Regulation 75(1), the Federal Skilled Worker Class is prescribed as a class of persons who may become permanent residents on the basis of their ability to become economically established in Canada and who intend to reside in a province other than the Province of Quebec. Although you indicated on your application form that you intend to reside in Toronto, Ontario, you currently live and work in Montreal, Quebec. Furthermore, you have not completed your course of study at University. I am concerned that you do not intend to live in a province other that the Province of Quebec.
Therefore I am asking you to submit any additional information and/or documentation that would allay my concern. You have 60 days from the date of this letter to submit the additional information and/or documentation to me"
1. This is in regard to your application for permanent residence in Canada under the Federal Skilled Worker Class.
As per Regulation 75(1), the Federal Skilled Worker Class is prescribed as a class of persons who may become permanent residents on the basis of their ability to become economically established in Canada and who intend to reside in a province other than the Province of Quebec. Although you indicated on your application form that you intend to reside in Toronto, Ontario, you currently live and work in Montreal, Quebec. Furthermore, you have not completed your course of study at your university.
2. I wrote to you on November X, 2012 to advise you of my concerns and you were invited to provide additional information or documents to allay my concerns. Your materials were received on December X, 2012 and were carefully considered but did not change my assessment of your intentions to reside in a province other than the Province of Quebec. As such, I find that you do not meet the requirements of Regulation 75(1) and therefore do not meet the requirements of the Federal Skilled Worker Class.
Subsection 11(1) of the Act 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(1) specifies that unless otherwise indicated, references in the Act to “this Act” include regulations made under it.
Following an examination of your application, I am not satisfied that you meet the requirements of the Act and Regulations for the reasons explained above. I am therefore refusing your application.
Your timelines are interesting
Doc request- June 10th 2013
Doc sent- June 17th 2013
Letter from CPP from FA- 26th June 2013
So you got response from FA within 11 days of receipt of document by them. Thats fast being a december applicant. That means that you must have passed other criteria etc as your timelines are same as mine for assessment but I was assessed by SL and it was left for FA(hopefully).
Write a good response to convince them.
Please do share the GCMS notes when you receive them.
Thanks and best of luck.
