thanks Jorger ! i had submitted my application awhile back, as i had qualified under cic rules for cec. although in the beginning i was skeptical about what was interpreted on cic page and some people had miss guided me ..
having said that there is another slight issue i am having with one of my colleague , he doesn't like me and is jealous that i qualified faster than him and have already got my file number under CEC , there might be a possibility through jealousy that he could contact cic and give false information about me and try to jeopardize my application, how does cic deal with thees kinds of situations usually ,,,
what do you mean he would contact CIC and try to jeopardize your application? as in report you for some sort of offense?
falsifying documents, misrepresenting yourself, AS WELL AS falsely reporting criminal activity is a serious crime. CIC works closely with CBSA and RCMP when investigating claims or reported information. if they determine that there is actual misrepresentation or that they were mislead, there would be serious consequences. personally, I wouldn't worry too much if you haven't done anything wrong. if all the information you provided to CIC is legitimate, then it can only backfire. also, I'm sure you wouldn't be the first person to have someone report them for a grudge. quite certain they screen these out before anything even starts.
on the other hand....this is quite serious, and if you truly feel threatened, I would escalate this by consulting an actual lawyer and seek guidance. but, if I was the lawyer and you came to me with this matter....my first questions would be why you assume malicious intent and if you have any indication or proof of such intent/action. without anything concrete (evidence, proof, documentation), I don't see the course of action here...
