Right Now I received call from one of my known person who is an immigration consultant.... He received only Medical request of his client today... No RPRF or docs or PPR... His client got PER on 16th October.... NOC 0013.. That means SGVO started working.... :'( :'( :'(
well, at least it's a good sign that it is indeed moving. Hope for the best for all applicants. Our time will come. :) I hope soon. ;D

For those who received a request to submit Police Certificate. In the letter, did they mentioned any specific country requiring for Police cert? On my case, they specify to provide police cert from all countries resided for 6 months or more since turnin 18 then they only mentioned Singapore Police Certificates.

Does it means that I only need to prove SG police cert or other countries as well? It is quiet confusing becuase it was mentioned all countries where you lived for 6 months then suddenly, they speccify the country. Thanks for your inputs.

Yes sometimes they confused applicants with such statements....Mine one is also similar with u...

better to follow the first one...That means -- provide police cert from all countries resided for 6 months or more since turnin 18.

[size=10pt]I have raised a CSE to sgvo about adding my spouse with my application. Any idea when I can hear from them? In the meantime I will go ahead and start preparing the docs as suggested by Ashif vai.

Also anyone going through the same process of adding spouse to their application, please knock me or drop me a line. That might be helpful for both of us.

dear all,
my date of AOR: 09 December 2014 (NOC 4011)
today (22 Jan 2015) i have received a frustating email from SGVO as follows. plz give me ur valuable suggestions.

SPOREIMMIGRATION@international.gc.ca
Dear Mr ...
This refers to your application for a permanent resident visa to Canada.
I have assessed your application and there is insufficient evidence to show that you meet the minimal requirements as per subsection 75(2) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations. Subsection 75(2) states that a foreign national is a skilled worker if:
(a) within ten years preceding the date of their application for a permanent resident visa, they have at least one year of continuous full-time employment (30 hours/week) experience, or the equivalent in continuous part-time employment in one or more occupations, other than a restricted occupation, that are listed in Skill Type 0 Management Occupations or Skill Levels A or B of the National Occupational Classification matrix;
(b) during that period of employment they performed the actions described in the lead statement for the occupation as set out in the occupational descriptions of the National Occupational Classification; and
(c) during that period of employment they performed a substantial number of the main duties of the occupation as set out in the occupational descriptions of the National Occupational Classification, including all of the essential duties.

I am not satisfied that you meet all three parts of these requirements. You have provided insufficient evidence to satisfy me that you have performed the action described in the lead statement, and a substantial number of the main duties, of the occupation as set out in NOC 4011 University professors and lecturers.
If you have any additional information to add to your application you should forward this to our office within thirty (30) days of the date of this letter.

Sincerely

now my questions are:
1. what should be additional information/evidence for 30 hours/week work experience and main duties? (with CIC application, i had sent Experience certificate, work contract in university letterhead pad prepared according to document checklist where it was mentioned more than one year of continuous full-time employment (36 hours/week) experience).
CIC already passed this in eligibility check, why SGVO is not satisfied about this?
2. How can i elaborate my job duties? (plz see the link below of my job duties prepared as per NOC 4011 and submitted with CIC application.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ldtl9bk2cjmbp85/schedule%203_main%20duties.doc?dl=0

3. is this assessment done thru background check or only document checking?
4. plz explain if u have any other understanding about this SGVO e-mail.

(with CIC application, i had sent Experience certificate, work contract in university letterhead pad prepared according to document checklist where it was mentioned more than one year of continuous full-time employment (36 hours/week) experience).
CIC already passed this in eligibility check, why SGVO is not satisfied about this?
-We already found several applications as like you. Please dont be affraid.
Just collect some more documents:
1. Visiting Card and ID card(if possible) of your Supervisor who signed in your experience letter
2. Employment letter from HR where it will be stating that you are currently working there till date.
3. Your Salary certificate or Payslip.
4. Promotional letter or Any Award letter
5. Give link of any paper of yours submitted in conference or published in journal which has your university name(If any)
Confirming that all are taking in university's pad and send as a reply.


2. How can i elaborate my job duties? (plz see the link below of my job duties prepared as per NOC 4011 and submitted with CIC application.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ldtl9bk2cjmbp85/schedule%203_main%20duties.doc?dl=0
- I think your job description is ok. otherwise, it would be rejected at the beginning.
3. is this assessment done thru background check or only document checking?
- May be your document checking or both. It depends.
4. plz explain if u have any other understanding about this SGVO e-mail.
-Just kept calm and send the document.
Did you send HR document(employment letter not appointment letter) along with application?
Please check the blue colors. Hope these will help you. Best of luck

For Hope,

May I ask:
1. This mail from SGVO, does it have your UCI number?
2. what is the contents of the mail, does it say "we received your application"?

If you answered yes to both questions, it is your 1st line update (AOR). That is good news.

To your question on what you should do - I think you should CELEBRATE! Congratulations.

Next step, you will get 2nd Line Update (VO will start processing your application) and then send you a Medical Request (MR), Right of Permanent Residence Fee Request (RPRF) and Passport Request (PPR) post which your PR stamp will be in your Visa and you can land in Canada.

CONGRATULATIONS !!! Party Time!

Regards,
Rick
Hi Rick, My situation is as same as HOPE. My ans. to both of your question is "YES" :D I got AOR in 17th Oct. Now CIC showing my application status - In processing. then????!!!!
