Sorry Immanuelluna

I don't know much about any other way out but I request to other members to put their experiences.

I would ask you to go to the following thread & ask Qorax for the same..
http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/a-master-thread-of-some-of-my-posts-here-t40175.4395.html

Might be if they have an option where they keep $550 for you & refund the rest of the fees of other family members... All the best dear..

BECAUSE BASED ON MY PREVIOUS QUERY HERE, I CAN STILL REFUND MY FEES IF I WAS NOT ABLE TO PASS THE ELIGIBILITY REVIEW AT CIO. WE ARE 5 MEMBERS IN OUR FAMILY SO I LOSE I LOT OF MONEY $1600. IM FROM THE PHILIPPINES AND I JUST SAVE IT FROM MY HARD EARNED SALARY. PLS HELP ME. ANY OTHER WAY TO REFUND???

I am sorry, but according to EG7 you are not eligible to a refund since your point assessment had already begun. Once the eligibility review has been completed (where the CIO checks your NOC against the MI), the CIO assesses your score. Once this assessment has begun, a refund is not possible:

EG7 (page 15) states:

"less than the pass mark
Note: If you are refused at this stage, the processing fees will not be refunded."

Although the final assessment of your score would have been done by your local VO, a first assessment is already being done by the CIO. The CIO makes no positive decision (in this case a file would be forwarded to the local VO for final assessment of the score), only negative ones. But if they do - like in your case - the fee will not be refunded.

Hi Guys,

I received the email from CIO which says the following:

Based on a review of the information you have provided, your application has received a positive final determination of eligibility for processing on the basis of work experience in an occupation specified in the Instructions issued by the Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism and published in the Canada Gazette on June 25, 2011.

WHAT EXACTLY THEY MEAN FINAL DETERMINATION?

Also it says, your application will be forwarded to VO office specified
On my application.

My VO is London, how long before it reaches the VO?

Thanks for your help in advance

Congratulations, you have just received a PER.(positive eligibility review). It means that you have just passed the first check point.

In general, files usually takes 2 to 4 weeks to reach to the visa office, and there they will check yours documents. Then, if nothing goes wrong with your docs you will receive a Medical Request in a few months.


Warm regards and good luck to us all!

Hi Guys,

I need an advise. We received our PER on March 15th but we have not received AOR from Buffallo VO yet. Should we send an e-mail to the VO asking if they have received it or it is a normal to wait more than 2 months for 2nd AOR?

Also, has anyone seen PER reflected in their online file?

Thanks,

Fully agreed

Thanks guys,
It sucks being on the waiting end. It seems that they are not making changes in our online statuses either. Patience is a virtue which we need to master, unfortunately... Hope for the best

Good Luck to us all.

Total complete applications received since July 1, 2011

The cap has been reached. CIC has received 10,000 complete Federal Skilled Worker applications for processing since July 1, 2011.

However, certain applications are still eligible for processing. From now until June 30, 2012, we will only consider applications:
with an offer of arranged employment, or
submitted under the PhD stream (see below) until the cap of 1000 applications is reached.

If new Ministerial Instructions are not issued before July 1, 2012, the current cap of 10,000 new applications will re-set on that date.
