Four months processing under the live in caregiver from the Philippines? That is a record breaker. Please post the thread. thanks.

But it is possible to have a positive result if when you re-submit application one has addressed the refusal points.
I meant 4 months for re application, since she had her WP denied so she went home and brought all documents ready and got the visa. Are you applying for caregiver too jobseeker?

My bad :( I thought the processing time took only 4 months. I have friends who came from the Philippines and it took quite a while for the processing to finish.

It doesn't matter how you reapply.

However if you want to have any chance of being approved, you'll need to provide evidence that addresses the concerns that were listed in your refusal. Specifically - it sounds like you need to show stronger / additional proof of assets and stronger ties to your home country.
I have already applied for CAIPS notes, and it takes a month to obtain it.. My employer wants me to re-apply immediately. I have documents from the municipality here proving my family ties here (grandmother, mother, brother and sister-in-law) and also proof of all properties (land and houses) owned by my family and my bank statement. I guess this addresses the two factors considered for the refusal of my first application - family ties and financial situation. However, please advise me how I can address the third factor which is - limited job prospects in my home country. I am currently employed in my brother's leadership institute as admin officer.
Many thanks for your guidance.

Apply immediately for your GCMS notes. There are lots of threads on forum with instructions and your wife can order them on your behalf as she is in Canada. Cost $5.00. You have to give her signed permission but these documents are all provided in the instructions.
The GCMS notes will give you a better idea of the problems you have to overcome. It takes about a month to get them so don't delay. You have to find reasons that would compel the VO to believe you would not overstay in Canada. Family, property, previous good employment, history of travel out of the country and back again. I am wondering what your wife used to prove her ties when she applied? Good luck.

Thanks Pippin. My wife had applied to the Canadian Embassy in Abu Dhabi while we were working there. She never showed any property, but was given the WP without any hassles.
She now has already applied for my CAIPS notes, and it takes a month to obtain it. My employer wants me to re-apply immediately, and has even written a letter to the VO guaranteeing that I'll leave Canada by the end of my contract and stating that my experience is a perfect match for their needs, and they need me to start work asap.

The VO looks at things that a person would not walk away from. I am not sure whether property owned by one's family is considered a tie. What previous work have you done? That would be the best proof to show you are able to get good employment. In a cover letter state how the experience you would gain in Canada could be used when you return home. Hope others can add more ideas. All the best.
