Dear Folks,
One of my friend applied on NOC 1112. His application was received on 5th May,2014. His payment was charged as well.
But on 6th August cic sent a rejection email on his application instead of PER. He had full time permanent 8 years experience in two reputed banks.
1. 3 yrs in Citi Bank : This was his main profession In schedule 3 form and his latest experience and based on this work experience he applied in NOC 1112. He provided employment letter with full job description for this experience.
2. 5 yrs in Standard Chartered Bank: He did not apply under this experience but In schedule 3 form, He claimed this work experience under NOC 1212. He also provided employment letter for this work with job description. But the job description does not fully match with NOC 1212.He got only 11 points out of 15 points in work experience beacause CIC did not give any point for his work experience in Stanadard charted bank.
This way he failed to meet 67 points.
In his rejection letter as a reason cic mentioned as below:
"1.You were assigned 11 points for your 3 years of full-time work experience with CITI Bank Nov 2011– May 2014 NOC 1112, or the equivalent in part-time work, within the 10 years prior to the date your application was made in accordance with R 80 of IRPA.
2. No points were assigned for your work experience from Standard Chartered Bank (August 2006 – October 2011) because the employer letters contained insufficient evidence that you performed the actions described in the lead statement for the occupation or a substantial number of the main duties of occupation 1212 – Supervisors, finance and insurance office workers, as set out in the occupational descriptions of the National Occupational Classification, including all of the essential duties. Self declared main duties or affidavits are not acceptable evidence of work experience. "
From the above explanation it is clear that CIC verified the job descriptions both of his experiences. Does it go with CIC rules? Moreover cic told that he will not get the refund and his file back. This is also something which seems a exception of their rule. Is not it?
So far we know that we have to have at least 1 yr of work experience in the NOC we are applying and he meets this rule.
What he can do now? He is really down with this rejection. Can he apply again? Or it will be rejected again if he applies?
