Hello everyone,

I got my LMIA approval for the position of "Purchasing Officer" from CS on 20 Nov, 2016 and then my consultant submitted my documents to CIC for WP visa. CIC opened up my file in the month of Mar, 2017 and I got my biometrics submission letter on 17 Apr, 2017.

I submitted my biometrics accordingly and then in the last week of June 2017, my consultant received another letter from CIC asking for additional financial documents of the company as well as a draft to rationalize "why foreign worker is needed for this job by the company". My consultant submitted them in due course of time and then during mid of July 2017, CIC again asked for a company document namely "T4" which my employer shared with CIC without any delay. Till then, I am in a waiting tick tock game.

Now, I need some guidance from the people of this forum as is it normal by CIC to ask for additional documents of the employer? What are they reviewing and how long will they take to reach for a final decision? Is there something which I should be worried about or is it a normal reviewing process? As per my consultant understanding, CIC is reviewing these documents just to establish the "existence" of the company and why do they need a foreign worker? Is it right? I need some expert opinion from the friends of this forum as I am quite worried and bit frustrated too.

Rest assured, all the documents submitted by my employer are legalized, audited and are in good financial standings.

Shall really appreciate your kind guidance and support in this matter. Thanking you in advance. :)
