Dear xxxxxxxxxxxxx:
I have now completed the assessment of your application for a permanent resident visa as a skilled worker. I have determined that you do not meet the requirements for immigration to Canada.
Subsection 12(2) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) states that a foreign national may be selected as a member of the economic class on the basis of their ability to become economically established in Canada. Subsection 75(1) of the regulations prescribes the Federal Skilled Worker class as a class of persons who are skilled workers and who may become permanent residents on the basis of their ability to become economically established in Canada.
Pursuant to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations, 2002, skilled worker applicants are assessed on the basis of the requirements set out in subsection 75(2) and the criteria set out in subsection 76(1). The assessment of these requirements determines whether a skilled worker will be able to become economically established in Canada. The criteria are age, education, knowledge of Canada's official languages, experience, arranged employment and adaptability.
Your application was assessed based on the occupation(s) in which you requested assessment. The table below sets out the points assessed for each of the selection criteria:
Points assessed
Age 10
Education 15
Official language proficiency 7
Arranged employment 0
Experience 21

TOTAL

You have obtained insufficient points to qualify for immigration to Canada, the minimum requirement being 67 points.
You were assigned maximum points for age and work experience.
You were assigned 15 points for your Master's degree with 13 years of study. Note: This is the maximum number of points for a Master's degree with 13 years study. [size=10pt][size=10pt][size=10pt]Although your Bachelor degree was on file, transcripts were not on file to confirm the number of years of education.[/size][/size][/size]
You were assigned 7 points for your official language proficiency. This assessment was based upon the language results on file. No points were assigned for your second official language.
No points were assigned for arranged employment.
No points were assigned for adaptability for non-accompanying spouse. Kindly refer to the visa office document checklist for further details.
You have not obtained sufficient points to satisfy me that you will be able to become economically established in Canada.
Subsection 11(1) of the Act states that a foreign national must, before entering Canada, apply to an officer for a visa or for any other document required by the regulations. The visa or any other document may be issued if, following an examination, the officer is satisfied that the foreign national is not inadmissible and meets the requirements of this Act. Subsection 2(2) specifies that unless otherwise indicated, references in the Act to “this Act” include regulations made under it.
