New CEC - Jan 2013 Applications

[bahadur30]

Currently It says under your profile you applied in 2011. Are these notes in relation to a more recent application?

Hello lpc1980,

I have FSW2 application also running ...the timelines on the left that you see is for FSW2 application.

Hello All,Seniors / JES_ON / Andy

I am working as Sr Programmer analyst for almost 3 years for my company. I applied PR under cEC in the month January 2013 under 2174 NOC code, its the same code under which my 3 year work permit is issued.

Now I am moving to BA role which is definitely not a 2174 NOV code. Please advise if this move can have any adverse impact on my permanent residency application.

Do they ask for updated Employment letter / reference letter etc etc?

Thanks,

bahadur,
it will have no impact on your PR application. CEC eligibility is based on the experience you have accumulated to qualify under the particular NOC code. what position you switch after applying for PR is no concern.
worst case scenario, even if CIC asks for updated reference letter, what you get them is not the current employment letter but the letter for past duration that you have claimed to have worked in the application.

Look at the documents checklist on the CIC website for CEC applications. It explains exactly what is required on the letter.

Thanks guys for your response.

Now I have another questions - what about my FSW2 application? FSW2 application was file back in 2011 under arrange employment category.



Any comments on this?

Bahadur your work permit was issued for programmer analyst position but now you will be working as business analyst that is completely different NOC..... don`t you think that would invalidate your current work permit?

Hi,

I recently moved to USA. I was in Canada (under work permit) for one year and I also got the reference letter (with roles & duties) from my HR while leaving Canada.

I have to now take IELTS test and then apply for PR.

It will another 3-4 months for me to complete IELTS and apply for PR.

My question here is how long the reference letter from my HR is valid?

Thanks...

There is no validity of reference letter but its always advisable to have the latest one.

I think you are definitely good with that letter even if you apply 3-4 months from date of that letter.

Hello Guys,

I need some help to decide. Here is the scenario that I had applied under CEC experience class in January 2013. My company promised to apply through tis immgration lawyer and I had agreed. I got my AOR on 6th March and since then did not hear back anything . We plan to get a kid and now we are scared that we might get the medical in the middle of it so kind of getting impatient to know the status as my status in ECAS is "Application Recieved".

I had requested my company lawyer for information , but got a response that he has not heard back. I asked him if we could go for upfront medicals and did not want us to go through it. Then i asked if we can apply for GCMS notes to know the status and that was also denied.When i applied we did not submit NOA since i did not have it then, but we submitted T4, payslips and reference letter from the company . Now since I have it I asked to forward it to CIC but he said we have already submitted enough proof so we shall send it when they ask for it.

Now i got fed up after so many denials and went to meet my local MP office. They are ready to follow up my case but since I had applied through the company lawyer, they want me to decide and get a go ahead after discussing with my company lawyer as CIC might be confused on who to send the status information back. But am skeptical that my company lawyer might agree to let me go with MP's office .

So what should i do now ? Should i wait in blind or go ahead to decide to got with Mp's office which might annoy my company. Help me out with valuable suggestions please.

Thanks!

Ok. A few things. If i remember correctly, NOA is a mandatory requirement on the checklist. Please correct me if I'm wrong - if it is though, there is no reason why the lawyer should wait for a request before sending it.

I am female and my partner (a Canadian) and i agreed that we'd start trying for a baby once the medical request comes in. Obviously it's personal choice but for me, I'd rather not do x-rays while pregnant. My lawyer advised me not to do them upfront.

If I'm honest, your lawyer sounds a little bit lazy. If I were you I'd tell him straight up (and quite firmly) that you want him to agree that you should go to your mp for an update. That's if you want to - I feel it's a little early to be doing this. I'd try telling him that you'll order your gcms notes yourself and if they come to you, he has to show them.

I applied for GCMS notes - I didn't even tell my lawyer. If she asks me what I've done I'll tell her the truth.

Basically whatever you want to do, the lawyer can advise you but can't order you - company lawyer or not.

You applied literally a couple of weeks after me, it's still early so don't get too worried just yet.

I ordered my gcms notes so will post my outcome - should be here end of this week /beginning of next

The easiest and most logical way to get some more info is to apply for GCMS notes. You do not need your lawyer help or permission to do so, just fill the request online: https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/

 

[ceeram]

Thanks lpc and sashaali. I will wait until lpc let me know what was the GCMS status and probably might apply. So when you apply can you order GCMS notes to your home address as in the application package I had mentioned Lawyer's address for correspondence.

Thanks!

Hello all,
Please help me
I am a Jan2013 applicant (sent application on Dec-27-2012 and received at CIO on Jan-3-2013).

At the time of my application I didn’t realise that I need IELTS band of 6 in all the tests, I got overall score of 6.5 and I thought its ok to apply. [My score=S 5.5, R 7, W, 7, L 6.5]

Recently a friend of mine told me that they would reject my application based on my language requirements.

If I re-take the exam now and send my IELTS results before they start processing my application, would they consider it?

Very much appreciate your suggestions !
