BC PNP application batch sept. 2013

[lovykaler]

I think best option for you is to leave canada now...otherwise they reject your file..bcoz they clearly mention on their website that it is responsibilty of applicant to mantain legal status....

i agree, living here without any valid status will get you and your case in deep shit :-\

Hi Rachel,

I am not an expert so I am not really sure what your options are but PNP and CIC are two different things. PNP has got nothing to do with the immigration department while your application is in process but it is imparitive that you maintan legal status in Canada while you are living there. I am not sure if Tourist visa is your option as you are already in Canada but I think you can re isntate your status in matter. Also, I am not sure if you leaving canada asap will solve the problem becausr you have already over stayed . If you are from a country that doesnt require a tourist visa, you can flagpole and request a tourist visa and expalin your situation - NOT SURE IF THIS IS CORRECT, Happy for others to give their input.

Immigration maters should not be taken lighltly. If i was you, I would seek leagl advice asap or call the CIC help line to see what you can do !! Make sure as soon as you figure out the solution and you maintain legal status in Canada you let BC pnp know as well.

As I said, I am not sure if I sugesstion is vaiable but happy for others to input.

Hope this helps

but i have 990days to restore my status. so it not likely that I am living illegal. You guys think so ?

 

[racheal178]

sorry, I mean 90 days

 

[robbiefernando]

Why would you want to wait to restore your status.. I would do it asap. As i said, do not take immigration matters lighly. You Know that you will need to restore your status so why wait ? What if BC PNP ask you about what you have done to maintain your status !!

 

[racheal178]

They did ask couple of days ago when I have got email from CIC said that my TRV expired , and I already send them the proof that I did send application to extend my work permit( at that time, I did not know that my extended wp application was refused ) .

 

[robbiefernando]

This is too technical for me.. Why did you WHP extention get expired ? what is your country of nationalty ? if you application has been refused, I am not sure if you can apply to restore the status. I will let others to add their input.

 

[racheal178]

actually, My full case is I did applied for PNP on Oct 10th, My post- graduate work permit expired on Nov 5th.

so what i do to make the time longer is put me in " implied status" by sending the incompleted application to hope that I can get PNP approval before they answer my extended work permit. but they did it earlier as the PNP processing get longer and extended wp get shorter.

On Dec 27, I got answer form CIC said that my application was refused and my temporary residence status was expired.

I dont know what to do next. Thought I should get the lawyer to help me out in the beginning, but now it seems kind of too late

 

[racheal178]

in the letter CIC send me, they said I have 90 days to restore my status

 

[racheal178]

plz, any one can tell me what I can do ?

 

[robbiefernando]

Do not Panic.. u need to think it over.. No one is expert on this forum. I would seek advice from a lawyer. The other option is you can hope that you PNP gets approved asap and you can apply for immigration but that is not gong to work as PNP ppl require you to maintain legal status. what is the country of your passport ?

 

[jazz_dhami]

you messed up big time by deliberately sending an incomplete file. get some experts help via lawyers or immigration office. this is too much for the people on this forum. i don't think anyone here will able to help you exactly the right way

 

[robbiefernando]

I totally agree with Jazz Dhami. See an immigration lawyer and seek help !!

 

[racheal178]

the country of my passport is VietNam. I am gonna see lawyer next week.
