Dear Seniors,
I have received my PPR on 24th August and asked to submit passports with in 30 days. I have applied for renewal of passports for my kids and they come any time within the 30 days or after. I have also email to CPC ottawa explaining the situation.

Could any one of you faced the similar problem or do you want me to call and inform CIC or need to submit a case specific enquiry. Your advice's will be very much appreciated.

Thanks,
Kalpan

Hi All

I appeared for IELTS on Jan 23, 2016 and got result of same on Feb5,2016 .I got an invite recently and submitted my docs on Aug 18, 2017as well.
Q1.Is IELTS score to be valid till the the time you get COPR ? or as soon as you get invite everything (age, score) freezes.
Q2.If I dont get any response by Jan end from CIC for my PR, Should I give IELTS again ?
The moment you get AoR, change in score will not affect your profile. Also, there are very high chances you will get your PPR before Feb 2018 i.e. before your IELTS expiry.

Good Luck.

Hello house, please i need your input. I recently received AOR and wanted to know if i could raise CSE to include my younger brother as a dependent in my application.

I am a legally separated single mum, so at the moment it is just me and my daughter, but i just came across the adopted definition of a dependent as adopted by the CIC. my brother is 17 years and our parents are late. i am his sole guardian and i have a sworn affidavit from 2016 to that effect. i am responsible for his welfare and he lives with me. Leaving him behind is not an option as we do not have a lot in the way of family. The plan was to apply for study visa for him

is it ok to raise a CSE, and include his birth certificate as well as mine, death certificate of our late parents, additional POF, his secondary school certificate as proof of his english proficiency, read that on CIC website, his passport date page and LOE.
Please advise

i think you need to go to the administration block. they know the procedure already. get your WES print out and specifically tell them that send the degree copy too along with the transcripts. Tell them this is going to WES and they need both transcripts and copy of degree along ith your printout from WES. fee charges are Rs 3000. They will give you a sealed envelop. Send it to WES through DHL as they give discount for documents sent to educational institutes.

one of my friend got transcripts from Delhi University but they dint put a copy of degree in the sealed envelop and now WES is asking for a copy of degree. Though he dint face such problem from GNDU.

So make sure that they have put all the documents in the sealed envelop.

Hi All seniors,

Below is my history for previous almost five years stayed in Canada. I have significant history in Canada and finally i came back to India and its been 2 and half years now. We are Planning to apply for EE and my wife will be a primary applicant for this.

Pa is applying for LMIA WP @ Mac’s Convenience. PA has spent over 5 years in CDA with notable FOSS history. PA originally entered CDA in 2010/12 on SP to attend GB for Office administration course. 2012/08 - PA applied for another SP to attend CDN Int’l Academy of Business — provided no evidence of completing studies at GB, and was refused. 2013/01 — PA was granted LMIA WP to work at Subway, valid until 2015/01/23 2015/01 — PA applied for C11 WP — declared having ownership in Mac’s Convenience store — insufficient evidence provided. Refused in 2015/08 and again 2015/09. 2015/09/21 — AL issued. 2016/01 — Applied for LMIA WP — refused in Delhi. On file, noted PA’s employment history and reference letters. In line with FOSS history, PA was employed as a food counter attendant at Subway for two years. He was to be promoted to Service Supervisor but LMIA was not obtained. Concerns: PA originally entered CDA as a student, yet he did not provide evidence of pursuing or completing studies. REP submission indicates that PA experienced some difficulties upon arrival in CDA, and he attended two different institutions, and found them challenging. On attending the third, there were some legal difficulties with the designation of the school and his SP was refused. In fact, reading the case notes, it was the fact that after two years in Canada, the applicant was unable to provide any evidence of studies. As PA was in CDA for two years on a study permit, and could not provide evidence of studies, there were concerns related to PA’s genuine intent in CDA. REP submission is considered — does not alleviate concerns that PA was in Canada for two years on an SP, and has yet to produce any evidence of studies. REP submission states that PA was approved for restoration status, and therefore IRCC has pardoned his previous SP refusal. This statement is not based in law or fact. I have noted REP submissions related to the AL. Most concerns lie with the PA’s ability to meet the requirements of the current LMIA. LMIA indicated that 1-2 years of related work experience is required. PA declares 2 years + of work experience as retail sales supervisor for Pulse MED 2008/02 2010/11, and 2 years work experience at Subway as Sandwich artist. As per declaration from Pulse Biomed Manager, PA was responsible for: “Train, Manage and Supervise the Staff, among which include people working on the floor and cashier. Organize and distribute staff schedule. Lead store team, in pursuit of store sales target. Maintain inventory and ensure items are in stock.” I have noted in application that PA has indicated pursuing studies at Arihant School of Pharmacy between 2006/05-2010/05 — four years. I have concerns with PA’s declared related work experience as 1) he was a FT student at the same time he was a FT Store supervisor; 2) PA was a student with limited previous employment history — does not make sense to have been directly employed as a store supervisor with limited experience and still being in school. I have noted and considered the self-serving declaration, which does not alleviate my concerns. Taken together, I am not satisfied that the applicant has the experience required as outlined in LMIA. Refused.

Does this my immigration history impact on my prospective PR application? I m willing to revel everything.

Hoping to get your best advice for this.

Many Thanks in Advance!
