PLEASE PLEASE i need help from the SENIORS in this forum....i think i am in a lot of trouble...my ICCRC regulated immigration consultant just told me last night that he has received my PER Mail but when i asked him to send the PER mail, he first said that he wont send it and then when i was adamant he said that he will send the PER Mail but will erase the ECAS or UCI number from it!!! This sounds really strange to me.
Also he was behaving very rudely and told me that i am lucky to have received PER in the first place as my application was a very weak one. And said that he had to personally got to Canada to submit my application and there he convinced the people responsible there to accept my application. He said i had to beg them to overlook your experience issue!!! To let you all know he has made out an issue from my case for absolutely no reason. I have 11 months job experience + paid internship for 10 months in the same job in a Govt office. so in total i have 1 year and 9 months experience which was sufficient for me. But he says he had to beg them to consider my paid internship as legitimate experience!!!! Is that even possible. Can a consultant do that while submitting a clients application!!???
The point is can my consultant do whatever he is doing rite now. He says he will give me UCI number only after my medical request has arrived. Also he will take full payment before that. I was amazed at how rudely he was talking to me. At one point he even said that i will throw your application if you keep on asking me questions, just let me do whatever i am doing and dont ask questions.
Please help me i am almost having a heart attack....what should i do now...can i complain about him. If yes, WHERE?
And if i do lodge a complaint about him will he in any way be able to harm my application or immigration process
Please please please i ask all the senior members to help me out. I need your advises.
This is totally unacceptable. You have the absolute right to know and to see all information and correspondence about your application at all times. Here is what you should do:
1. Your file is going to be transferred to your local VO. Send a Case-Specific Enquiry to your VO informing them that you will no longer use a consultant and that they should contact you directly for all future correspondence. Attach a copy of the "Use of Representative" form revoking the authorization for your consultant and indicating that you will no longer be represented by anyone. I believe you should send a paper copy to the VO as well as they need your actual signature, but ask them to confirm. Also explain the situation and ask for your UCI.
2. E-mail CIC and ask for your UCI and the status of your application. Unfortunately those e-mails are not answered for about 6 weeks but if you explain the situation and the urgency maybe you will get lucky and they will answer sooner. Also call CIC, though they usually don't give this information over the phone they sometimes do, and if you explain the situation and that you already got your PER they may be more helpful.
3. File a formal complaint with ICCRC and explain the situation fully.
4. If this consultant attempts to sabotage your application, you may need to hire a lawyer both to represent you with CIC as necessary and to threaten the consultant.
5. Don't pay the consultant another penny!
