Hello friends,
I have been a silent reader of the posts for quite some time now.
These posts have helped me a lot to understand how OINP works and to keep me motivated.
I submitted my CIC application in November 2015 and immediately got OINP notification.
My OINP application courier was delivered on 30-November-2015 while I received the acknowledgement on 06-April-2016.
I tried to reach out to Ontario via e-mails and I used to get the standard response.
Yesterday, 07-Sept-2016, I received a call from an Investigator, Mr. Abhijeet and he asked me a couple of questions (I remember reading a post on the discussion with the Investigator - mine went exactly the same way, asked about my job role and Why Ontario).
I think I had selected the wrong NOC (2147) as I had no relevant experience for many of the criterion questions
I asked him for a timeline and got a response of 2 or more months.
Approximately one hour after the call, I received an e-mail asking for additional documents for Proof of Fund (POF) signed by AB. I immediately replied with the requested document (online bank statement) via email.
I received another mail on the same day (07-Sept-2016) stating that my Application has been moved to the Decision Phase with the Senior processing Officer. I sincerely hope they will be able to see me more than my NOC code.
As per Mr. Abhijeet, there will be another wait of 2 months or more (FANTASTIC)
I would like to thank you all for the above thread/comments which kept me motivated.
I would keep you all posted if there is any development.
All the very best,
Cheers!!!
Joel Lawrence
