Time Iine:
AOR: 5th May 2018 (FSW-O_
1st Medical passed: 16th May 2018
No movement in Application after that for a long time (Online status check)
1st call to IRCC: End of August. As per Agent everything is OK and need not worry as it's within the time frame. BGC, SC, CRIMINALITY nothing started. Only Eligibility check going on.
2nd call to IRCC: October 1st week 2018. (1 month before the 6 month period). Agent said everything is OK.
1st GCMS : Ordered 1st GCMS notes same night and received it via email exactly after 1 month i.e the 6th month period. in the summary saw that all my work exp certificates have been rejected as it did not reflect the roles and responsibilities for the Job NOC i applied for. (Basically i shared experience certificates with date of joining , last day in position, designation, division and immediate superior's name and contact details). Got really upset as the Agents who i communicated before and the online status never showed this picture. discussed with many experience applicants in this platform, offline and lawyers. most said nothing can be done now, withdraw the application and re-submit. Only one senior lawyer (who is no more doing immigration practice) told me that i still have a chance, if could resubmit the work certificates as per the format before i get an official notification from IRCC through mail or online update regarding the rejection. I gathered all the certificates with a month and submitted back by 1st week of Dec 2018. In between, just to keep my case strong i raised a webform asking the status of my application and received a statement that it is still live.
1st follow up post re-submission of work docs: January 1st week, went through the local MP office ( i landed in Canada on Visitor visa with my wife on work permit). The Agent, said we just came out of break and it's only a month after the re-submission. it will take some time and follow up after 2 months.
Expiry of Validity of Med test: Meanwhile our med test validity expired. IRCC agent told, Do a re-test only when you are asked to do via mail/ online status update.
We waited for 4 months and finally in April 5th, got the re-test request.
Med test done on 12th April 2019.
Med Test Passed, Back Ground Check started on the last week of April 2019.
Yesterday got request for RPRF payment.
Bottom line:
Loads of Patience
Keep asking for GCMS notes as most of the time Agents don't reveal much
Keep talking in this forum and following (Loads of cumulative experience)
