Call from Canada Embassy to confirm employment details

[ifeedly]

It is what it is.
a call to verify that the credentials claimed are true or not.
if CIC is doing it then it is good news.
because atleast something is happening and they are moving ahead with ur application.

Best of luck

This forum represents a small fraction of the entire applicant population. The members posting on this forum is a further fraction of the members applying for EE. The members posting about having their employers contacted is another fraction of that. When you do the math, it is apparent that this isn't the standard at all.

This fraction are the few who's employer actually told them they were contacted. My employer is not obligated to tell me if they are contacted. STATED BIG AND BOLD ON MY REFERENCE LETTER!

So that's just another fraction in the overall calculation, the math still holds good.

Speculation is not math.

Asivad and Bahamas - Let's just agree that people have been contacted and leave it at that..regardless of it's the norm or not

Speculation is not math.

You'll find a lot of speculation on this forum, probably not so much in my posts. Meaningful assumption backed by evidence is a hypotheses not speculation - I hypothesize that calls/visits to employers for background verification are more an exception than the rule and are usually triggered by something in the applicant's reference letter(s). It's a hypothesis which can be proved or refuted completely based on evidence or meaningful assumptions in the absence of complete information. Period.

hi guys, i am old lmia applicant under cec.
service canada called my employer and was asking him about old lmia which he got when i got hired. Service canada is asking to send documents like business licence, my june-july pay stubs and income statement etc...
on my cic, my background check is in progress and my ecas shows in process and they started processing my application on oct. 7.
why service canada is asking my employer about my old lmia??
is my application under cec is on hold until service canada do this lmia audit on my employer??

You can read through threads on the older FSW topics and get a feel for the employer calls.
