PLEASE HELP!

Dear Friends,

I got stuck in a confused situation, please help! Here is the story:

I applied on the early days of September through my consultant for the NOC 2174, and the cap filled soon for this NOC. I contacted my consultant and she said “don't worry, we applied your file under two NOCs” (as I have work experience under both NOCs 2174 and 2281). So it had been around 5 months since I applied and I started to get nervous. Last week I asked my brother (living in Canada) to contact CIC through phone to get my UCI number, so I could check ECAS. The agent asked my brother for my email address and sent me a confirming email for my request of information. Then I replied to the email describing my situation and requesting information on my application status and I got no reply to that. So I contacted CIC through phone from my home country and I was able to get my UCI number and when I checked ECAS it said we were not able to identify you...!
Then I contacted my consultant to tell her: “I got UCI number what can you do to get any info on my status?” and she said: “you did a terribly wrong move by contacting CIC. Now your application may get rejected and you may not be able to apply for 2 to 5 years.” after all the frightening speech she told me that your September application has been returned because cap filled and we aplied under NOC 2281 on November!!! Although I have been in contact with my consultant during the time, she didn't tell me anything about the second application at all.

So, I'm really nervous and worried about the consequences of all these events, what will happen to my application?
Do you think contacting CIC would really ruin my application and possible future chances to apply for permanent residency?

I really appreciate your opinions on this.

Who is that fool consultant brother....!!!!..Nothing will happen to your application, dont worry. Even I called CIC 3 times to get my UCI number, but they did not provide UCI, but finally I got PER mail.

But are you sure that ur consultant have applied in November again for the second NOC? then ask them the application received date because currently November charging is going on....

CIC is swamped with people who call up trying to get their UCIs. If there was something inherently wrong in calling them up to get the UCI, they would have not given that option at all. IF your application is rejected, it won't be for this reason. Your consultant is trying to scare you, maybe to try and wheedle more money out of you later, claiming that they had to fight for your case or whatever. If you had applied in November, your DD/ credit card should have been charged by now. Wait for a couple of weeks longer, you'll get a clear picture from CIC itself. If your application is rejected now, you can apply again immediately for express entry. Unless you knowingly lied about any details on your application, there's nothing that says you can't apply for 2 to 5 years. Also, there is nothing wrong with applying under 2 NOCs. You can even apply under 2 or more NOCs simultaneously if your job description matches those. Don't worry, stay happy, keep smiling. And don't use the same consultant if you have to apply under express entry.

Contacting CIC does not harm my friend. Most of us here have contacted CIC by phone and the majority have got responses to their enquiries and finally got their PER. What is the harm in it. It does not make sense.

Hi CanOl

I do not know how I missed two days and this great news. My heartiest congratulations for your PER.
Your PER gives me hope that I will get good news soon. may I know what was the reason behind changing of application received date.
My application receive date is 17th September received by D.Macneil , mode of payment DD. My ECAS is also not active.
I also dont think that I missed out something.

thanks bro. +1 to you.

My app as per tracking number reached cic on 2nd sept, but cic reply to my mail mentioned that app has been recd on 20th October. Probably a lapse on the part of the consultant who does not want to admit his mistake.

 

[Udaykiran]

Yeah for eMedicals we sent original.
My consultant has sent the courier.

You can find address and other details here:

Hi
The consultant is misguiding you.
WHo is the consultant ? any name?
We have help people not to fall in to such traps
If you had called CIC , no worries thousands of people call and get to know their UCI number.
Also if the consultant had applied under a different NOC in November, did you sign the application for that? You need to sign the forms.
How is it possible for the consultant to just change NOC with out your permission and apply?

Hi guys,

Finally my interview date came today.

What can i tell you about this experience?

Reached embassy at 9.30. Interview was scheduled for 10.30.

20 people sitting at reception.
Important- Mobiles are kept outside, No parking available for cars or other vehicles.

Anyway, i am called in a room at 10.05 itself.

Il refer visa officer as VCO now.

Vco greets me, asks me if i nervous. I replied that i was a bit nervous and would not mind having water. He told me to go out and get it from cooler. I thanked him.

Came back, he started asking about JD. He never told me the reason for interview.

I told him about JD for current company.

Important point is to keep it short and simple. No need to elaborate more than required.

We moved to my previous companys. I told him the similarities and differences between current jd and older jds.
He started reading the lead statement.

He told me that he was Ok with my JD BUT matter of fact is that lead statement is not matching my designation.

I asked him to elaborate.

He told me that lead statement says that these professional are employed by agencies.

He told me that you are employed by product or services company but not by media, ad, pr agencies.

I debated with him over the fact that marketing managers define what agencies have to do for their companies.

He insisted that you are fit for a diff NOC but not this as you DO NOT WORK IN AN AGENCY.

I told him a very simple thing- I MIGHT BE FIT FOR ANOTHER NOC BUT IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT I DO NOT FIT HERE AS WELL. I DO 80% DUTIES, LEAD STATEMENT IS 50% MATCHING, I DO NOT SEE WHY I AM NOT FIT FOR 1123. I TOLD HIM THAT THERE IS A REASON DUE TO WHICH GOVT. OF CANADA HAS MENTIONED LEAD STATEMENT AND DUTIES SO YOU CAN NOT SAY THAT I DONT FOT HERE AS WELL.

He kept his stand and i stood on my stand.
We debated in length about this only.

VERDICT OF VCO- I have listened to what you have said, at this time i can not judge your case. I need time of upto 4 weeks to get back to you about my decision. I can neither reject or approve.

I asked him if i could give him more info with which he can process my file faster.

Vco said i have all info which is necessary, i have to think only.

He then asked me who is with me, i told him that my wife had accompanied me.

He asked me if i would want him to meet her. I told him that it is his call. Then he asked me about her, basic things though. Finally he said please call her.

When she came in, he cross verified everything i had told him about her.

He never looked at 300 documents i took with me. So i told him that i need to submit some docs.

He said please do.

I gave him pcc, revised pof, revised ref letters etc.

He accepted my pcc as well.

Final statement by voc - let me take my time. I appreciate how you were forthcoming and how you spoke.
I thanked him and moved out of the office.

Total duration 45 mins.

I can and will answer any and all queries by fellow forumites. Pls feel free.

My gut feel- Nothing as such, i l wait.

Regards,

Ratingcrady

+1 for sharing, interview is positive,

regarding decision not been made - may be a new term they have had - nothng to panic

btw - wondering how did u manage to get uci from call centre - their mandate is not to give out uci

Lance, a lot of applicants, including me, have got Uci from call centre. They do give it, but very selectively.

Dear Friends,

Application Received Date:11th Sept
PER date:31st Dec
NOC:4011
Visa Office:Newdelhi
PER mail says that visa office is Dakar.

In my PER mail they mentioned as File is transferred to dakar.

I received two mails from CIC on 21st Jan 2015.

1st mail--I sent a mail to CIC for status on 20th November and this mail is the reply of that stating "Your file was reviewed by our office and a letter was sent to you via email on December 31, 2014. Your file has since been transferred to the visa office in New Delhi. Please direct further inquiries to that office"

2nd Mail-This is also a PER Mail sent again with Heading that says "THIS LETTER REPLACES THE LETTER THAT WAS SENT TO YOU ON DECEMBER 31, 2014.
Please disregard the previous letter.". and the line of Dakar as Visa Office was replaced with "Your application has now been placed into processing. "
