I know it because I have came across so many GCMS notes. Every one has same thing going on.

Every VO follows same procedure.

If you order GCMS notes fro your self it will be like follow:

Eligibility: 1
Criminality: in-process
Security: Not Started.

1 means pass.
how do you order GCMS NOTE

Okay.. Got News!!! Not freaking out!!!!!

My husband's application has been returned yesterday 21-Oct.
NOC 2173
App received on July 29th
Reasons:
1) Responsibilities on reference letters not matching lead statement of the NOC code 2173
2) Sworn affidavits to be attached as no proper birth certificate available
3) Personal cheque not acceptable.

For 2 & 3, we sent them as additional docs which was received by CIC on October 14th. As mentioned by a forum member it dint reach on time.

Questions:
1) Might take another two weeks (optimistic) to get a fresh set of Reference letters. If the second application package reaches CIC by say 17th November, could it be within CAP? Oh my.. Does that sound funny.
2) Should I include the same application returned with additional documents or fill the forms again?
3) Should we wait for the additional docs to come back as well or spend for another set of sworn affidavit and Certified Cheque?

Okay.. if anyone is looking at the spreadsheet, his entry is not there. I'll try to add that soon.

And Why am I not freaking out, because I have another application submitted with me as Principal applicant for NOC 2171, application received on 6th Aug. Luckily certified cheque and sworn affidavits were included. And I believe my reference letters are detailed enough, fingers still crossed in prayers. You'll find my entry on SS.

Another set of questions:

1) Should I even wait to know about my application before re-submitting his application? When would I know any information on my application? Intelligent guesses please?
2) Should I freak out or not? YES or NO, YES or NO,YES or NO,YES or NO,YES or NO?? I think I know the answer... it doesn't help to freak out. I'm still alive, my application is.

Sorry for thinking out loud... If that's irritating any of the forum members.
And did I forget.... CONGRATULATIONS for all the Good News memebrs!!!!!!!!! You keep us going.
Sorry to hear that news.
Which country ?

Hello ALL!

Dear friends, I extremely need YOUR advice...

I was charged September, 23 and have received PER-letter September, 30.
In that letter from CIO the following phrase has been written:
... Please inform the visa office of any changes in your application (e.g. birth or adoption of a child, marriage or common-law relationship, new occupation or employer, submission of an Arranged Employment Opinion approved by Human Resources and Skills Development Canada, change of address, change of e-mail address, change of immigration representative, etc). Please include a letter identifying what the changes are and any relevant supporting documents. If your documents are not in English or French, send a notarized (certified) translation with a copy of the originals....

So... Today my son was born!!!!!

What should I do:

1. To inform my VO right now about this event and send them supporting documents later?
OR
2. To gather all the necessary documents (birth certificate with translation, travel document for child) and inform them, but it will take up to 3 weeks?

A. To inform them via address for general issues: Kyiv-im-enquiry @ international.gc.ca (my VO is Kyiv? Ukraine)?
OR
B. To use online-form for case specific enquiries: https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/case-cas-eng.aspx?mission=kyiv

Do I need to send renewed General Application Form to Canada with information about my new son, OR just provide them with details of my changes?

Do I need to send Fee Payment Form (in order to pay another 150 $ fo processing) and new documents showing my settelment funds (because my family has become bigger), OR wait for request from local VO after informing them about birth?

I am afraid, if will not inform the VO about birth right now, they will send me Medical Request not taking into account my newborn baby... I don't wish this...

Dear friends, YOU cannot imagine how I appreciate any your answers, I love YOU ALL...
Send your query at https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/case-cas-eng.aspx?mission=kyiv ; they will let you know, what will be required. The following si requirement for NDVO but may not be same for your VO:


Quote from: Gsw on October 20, 2014, 10:09:33 am
Hello everybody

I got PER on 1st of October and on 2nd October I raised CSE to add my new born in app
And after 20 days I got reply from ndvo for the same

Main content of reply is :

Dear Sir/Madam,

This is in response to your recent email enquiry to the Immigration Section of the High Commission of Canada in New Delhi.



To advise us of a change to your family composition, please send us a signed letter (the letter may be scanned and sent as an email attachment) providing us with all required changes to your file. The following information must be included in the letter if we are to make the changes:

- full name,
- date of birth,
- file number [Letter followed by a nine-digit number],
- telephone number, including area code,
- fax number, including area code, and
- mailing address

As we require your signature on this information, please note that your current family composition has not been amended in our records.

How to add your child to your application:



You will be required to submit the following documents in order to add your child to your application:

- a letter explaining how your family composition has changed and requesting that your child be added to your application
- processing fee for the child (if accompanying you to Canada)
- updated IMM0008 Generic Application Form and updated IMM5406 “Additional Family Information” form for yourself and your spouse to include added child
- If the child is 18 years or older, an IMM0008, Schedule A and IMM5406 Additional Family Information Form
- notarized copy of the child's birth certificate
- copy of your child's valid passport(s) both valid and expired
- four recent passport-size photographs of your child according to the specifications
- if you applied as a Skilled Worker - updated proof of funds for number of family members to now include added child
- a “Certificat de Sélection du Québec” for your child ( in his or her name), if you are immigrating to the province of Québec (http://www.micc.gouv.qc.ca/fr/index.asp)

Copies of the original documents with original certified translations into English or French are required.

July 29th returned!!! Wow!!! Cross my fingers for your second application. Honestly I think you will be too late for 2173
Yup. I was surprised at the speed too. Maybe CIC is more organized now, scanning for the hit list requirements as soon as possible and returning as many applications as possible. The one's surviving might be be getting another scan and then CCs or DDs charged. So this way returning or rejected applications are handled quicker.

Too late for 2173? I'm still expecting answers for my questions. treat me as one odd case of extreme optimism, I just want to keep both the applications alive. Thanks for all the replies.

We are from India and currently working in Canada on Work permits. No e-mails from CIC so far, the package was returned by post yesterday.

Do you not have your recent statements from that account? If you have them you can provide them. If not, you should get a letter from the bank explaining the situation that the account had to be closed and why.
I have a balance certificate and a statement for 6 months that I took in May. But this statement shows the huge funds at one shot. Sure I will take the letter from the bank. Thanks a lot for the info.

Dear friends, YOU cannot imagine how I appreciate any your answers, I love YOU ALL...
Congratulations.

Inform them about changes in your family with Case Specific Inquiry, and also ask them what you need to submit to add your baby to your application. They will send you to submit below thing.

So I would suggest in mean time you starting collecting below stated documents.


***
In order to continue processing your application, additional documents are required. Please complete these forms after the baby is born. Always include your file number on all correspondence


(A) If the child was born in Canada:
You must submit the following document:
· a legible copy of a long form birth certificate showing the names of father and mother


No medical examination or processing fee is required if the child was born in Canada.


(B) If the child was born outside Canada:
You must submit the following documents:
· Legible copy of a long form birth certificate showing name of father and mother

· Copy of child's passport ( Please provide as soon as possible)

· 4 photographs meeting the specifications for Citizenship and Immigration

· IMM 0008 Generic – all pages must be completed by the principal applicant to show

· details of the new dependant.


You must send these documents in hard copy (not via email) to the following address:



On receipt of these documents, your child will be added to your application as a non-accompanying dependant, and medical forms and instructions will be sent to you.



You must also pay the processing fee of $150 CAD for your child's application. (if born outside canada)

This payment must be made online. Please consult the following link for complete instructions: https://eservices.cic.gc.ca/epay/welcome.do?lang=en



Once this office receives your payment for the processing fees, your child's application status will be changed to an accompanying dependant.

Sorry to hear that. Good luck for another application.

@ seniors : can we safely assume that next cap updates will reflect the application count at least upto 30th July ?

PLEASE HELP

Dear all,

My NOC is 1123, and my application received CIO on June 20, 2014.

Unfortunately my Bank intimated to me of the credit card attempt on October 15th, 2014, and when we inquired through the history of attempts it was the 2nd one, however, upon contacting CIC through rigorous efforts, on October 20, 2014, we got thru the call centre agent via [size=10pt]CIO Helpline 0016139444000 [/size]who checked and confirmed that three attempts have already been made, and she cannot say what CIC will do now. She asked us to email CIC again, although there is no guarantee of what they will do.

I have gone through the forum in detail and have found out that in majority of the cases, application is returned. But we have emailed CIC to explain the situation to them and given them two options, either try charging the card again or give us an option of sending DD thru our representative, our friend who is in Canada only, and ensuring them of no time lag.

Will any of the two options be acceptable to them?

Moreover, in case the application returns to our representative, and he sends it back with fresh Fee form and DD, will all the forms that we had sent will be signed by us again in new date or old June dates make no difference?

Can we send old application with new payment form and an affidavit explaining our situation that we have only altered the fee form, or the entire application needs to be redone?

I request the seniors of the forum to assist me on urgent basis as we had done everything and just a minor glitch has led us back in the waiting line and we do not know what actions we can take now! [/size]

Hi Seniors,

I am a 2171 applicant from India, got my PER on 2nd Oct 2014, it was stated that

When should I contact CIC?
You must notify CIC of any changes to your application. Examples of changes include:
• Changes in your personal circumstances, such as birth or adoption of a child.

I have to add my new born's name to the applicant.

1) To notify CIC of changes to your application, visit www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/offices/missions.asp, select the office stated below, and follow the directions for “Case Specific Enquiry.”

The office stated below is CIC, Nova Scotia, so do I send the application for my baby to CIC, Nova scotia.

2) which application's do i need to fill and send?

TIA...
