sadly, I received a email today basically said I didn't have enough working experience in Canada which is not true. I send out my application on August 2012, they received on August 30th. I got my AOR ON September just in case you wonder my time line.
my working experience from MAY-28/2011 TO JUNE -1/2012, 45HOURS PER WEEK.
im on visitor permit now, my work permit expriod on June 3/2012
I don't think I can re-apply it because I finish school Dec 2010. it's been over 2 years
Can I appeal it? and how?
any body knows a experienced lawyer in Toronto can help?
thank you

Dear xx:
I have now completed the assessment of your application for a permanent resident visa as a member of the Canadian Experience Class and have determined that you do not meet the requirements for immigration to Canada.
According to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations, applicants in the Canadian Experience Class are assessed on the basis of the pass/fail requirements set out in subsection R87.1(2). The assessment of these criteria determines whether a worker with Canadian experience will be able to become economically established in Canada. The criteria are:
· knowledge of English or French,
· Canadian skilled work experience,
· Canadian educational credentials (for the Post-Graduation Stream only).
Your application was assessed based on the occupations which you identified as part of your skilled work experience in Canada: assistant teacher/recreation facilitator (NOC 4214/5254).
I am not satisfied that you meet skilled work experience requirements. I have reviewed your letters of employment and while I noted all the hours worked, a portion of these hours were accrued while exceeding the 37.5 hours per week maximum. Work in excess of 37.5 hours per week is not eligible towards work experience accumulated in order to compensate for a shorter working period. As a result I am not satisfied you have acquired 12 months of full time work experience, or the equivalent in part-time work experience, in a NOC type 0, or level A or B occupation, within the 24 months before the date the application was made and after having obtained a Canadian credential.
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 document shall 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(1) specifies that unless otherwise indicated, references in the Act to “this Act” include regulations made under it.
Following an examination of your application, I am not satisfied that you meet the requirements of the Act and Regulations for the reasons explained above. I am therefore refusing your application.
Thank you for the interest you have shown in Canada.
Yours sincerely,
Case Officer
Citizenship and Immigration Canada
