Just been refused residency!!

[purplekalzip]

By the time I had resent my application, it was sent back again because all the forms had changed, if that makes sense.....

 

[purplekalzip]

So i'm guessing it does not count from when you first sent in the application??

Sorry to hear about your rejection. It would be helpful if you can state your case clearly, with all the details and application re-trials in one message, then perhaps you could get a (good) advice from the forum members.

Start of employment = July 12, 2009
Date of employment letter = May 31, 2011

So July 12, 2009 to May 31, 2011(when your letter was dated) is 22 months not 24 months. That's why you were rejected. The letter should have been dated any time AFTER Jul 12, 2011.

Hi all.....if anyone can help please feel free.

I started work for this company in April 2009. This is what they have said:

I am not satisfied that you meet the skilled work experience requirements because your application does not contain the information as set out in the document checklist to demonstrate 24 months of full-time work experience in this position. Specifically, you submitted a confirmation of employment and a reference letter issued on May 31, 2011. For this reason, I am satisfied you acquired work experience from July 12, 2009 (eligibility period start date) until May 31, 2011, which is less than the minimum 2 years of work experience required to qualify under the Temporary Foreign Worker Stream.

Ok, here goes...

Application sent in June 2011, returned due to incorrect paperwork in July 2011.
Sent again in Dec 2011, returned in Jan 2012 saying all the forms were now different as of Jan 1 2012.
New forms filled out and sent back in June 2012.
Ecas says application received July 12 2012.

Way way bad timing!!....did not know about the 36 month rule, guess i'm counting the cost now!

Deep purple by reading ur timeline... all I can say is u made a big mistake by keeping such big gaps while reapplying. Cos u were rejected in Jan 2102 saying new forms were out and then u waited till June 2012 to apply.. that sadly put ur beyond 36 months of the threshold. If u would've applied even by march 2012 u were safe ...
For this kind of situation I am really not aware of any solution ...maybe the seniors can give some inputs ...

Time and tide do not wait for anyone

Did you submit pay stubs with your application? It looks like the only issue the officer had is that your confirmation of employment letter was not recent enough to prove your 24 months of employment. What I would suggest you to do is to send them scanned copies of your pay stubs and if available, your recent T4 slip/record of employment to prove that you have been working up to and including the date of your latest application date and ask them to reconsider. There is no guarantee they will - but i think it worth a try.

I still don't get why the officer is counting from July 2009 instead of April 2009?

Wow... it seems each time you took too long to re-submit your application and you lost about 1 year doing that. :-X Anyway, you are now outside the 36 months window to qualify for CEC.
Check whether you qualify for any provincial nomination programs or for the federal skilled worker program(when it re-opens).

Also, you may consider asking them to re-consider as the comment above suggests.

The officer is counting 3 years back. since the latest application was done July 2012, he is only counting the experience from July 2009 and on.

 

[SenoritaBella]

Oh shucksss!!! So he should have obtained a recent employment letter each time he re-submitted the application. That's really unfortunate.

No - it definitely doesn't count because your application was returned.
