Dear Qorax,
I went to Canada in 2008 on a study permit for 1 year PG course and got 1 year PG workpermit on completion. I hired a consultant from Brampton and submitted my initial application (under FSW-3 category) to CIO, Sydney which was received by them 09 November 2010.
I received AOR from CIO on 23 February 2010 and my full documents were received by Buffalo on 29 March 2010. Buffalo AOR and their file number is still awaited. E-Cas continues to show CIO approval details only.
My consultant has sent 3 follow-up mails and got one reply early last month that it may take them up to 30 weeks (7.5months) to issue AOR. It fas been a long, anxious and frustrating wait so far.
My PG work permit (which, legally, is not extendable) on 29 June 2010 and I left Canada on 27 June 2010 to return to Delhi, leaving all my savings in a bank account in Toronto, hoping to return and also as proof of funds.
I got a new passport issued by Indian Consulate in Toronto 3 weeks prior to my return.
Your expert comments and guidance in following queries will be greatly appreciated:
1.What options do I have to get my AOR other than waiting?
2.I would like to inform Buffalo VO regarding change of my employment, address and passport. How to do it in the absence of AOR/new file number?
3.How can I submit an application for “Cancellation of my representative (consultant)” in the absence of AOR/new file number? Having returned to India, I want to handle it myself now.
4.Since, I have returned to India, I would like to submit a convincing request to transfer my file to Delhi. Hope they will do it, despite the regulation stating that this is possible only if it helps the program integrity.
With my sincere gratitude,
VermaS
