Congratulations rielee. Pretty smooth timelines. Your application must be full of all the documents. Did you voluntarily share few additional documents like Pay stubs, bank account statement etc. Or only the mandatory documents asked by CIC.

IRCC/CIC is aware of FBI processing times. It is recommended to write a LoE explaining the same and request IRCC to consider your e-APR as is. To substantiate, you must attach FBI receipt stating request received date.
However, if you may wish to decline future ITA's - you will be surely selected in each draw (which will be approx every 2-3 weeks) and IMHO you are not going to get FBI report till next couple of draws for sure.

PS: You will be wasting one eligible candidate who could have received ITA because of you declining ITA every time. Think wisely.

Good Luck!!

Hi Ppahuja
I have a question regarding PCC:
I have lived at two different addresses in the same city in last 10 years. I got my Police Clearing Certificate made the other day but it certifies my stay only at my current address and mentions nothing about the last address where i lived for 2 yrs even though in the very same city. My current address and previous address both fall under different police stations. Do i need to get separate PCC for my stay at last address??


PS- I have mentioned stay at my last address in the same city in the description of last 10 years stay in my cic account.

Plz help as i am in the process of collecting docs for E-APR.

If u are an indian applicant thn the safest way out is to get a PCC from PSK. Process is very fast and takes only one day. Book an appointment by logging in to passport account. pay 500 rs for each applicant. This PCC does not mention any address etc.

I second thoughts shared by yogesh above. Please proceed with PSK issued PCC.

I am from Punjab and here we have to get PCC issued from SSP's office (this is mentioned at the cic website too for Punjab's applicants)....i followed the due process but ??? got this PCC with my current address mentioned on it specifying that i dont have any criminal record during my stay at my current address only. It woud hav been better if they had not mentioned this damn address thing...it has only added to my worries as in the last 10 yera's history that i gave i have mentioned my previous address too (even though in the very same city)
I am clueless now :'(

We have seen many rejections because of PCC issues. PSK is the best option for all Indian applicants. I am also collating documents. Went to PSK few days back and got PCC the same day. This PCC is free of timelines and addresses.

I would strongly suggest you to book a PSK appointment ASAP.

We are in same boat bud. Please connect on this thread as well and see response from fellow members to go for PSK PCC only.

sumit.singh.hallan got his application rejected because of this very fact and he submitted PSK issued PCC later.

Hi Guys,

I was going through the OINP post nomination spreadsheet. CIC is asking for schedule 4 and schedule A from most of the applicants (sometimes even after 4 weeks of AOR).

Should i send these documents upfront as this might cut short few days from processing.

If yes, thn where should i upload these forms (under which section of eAPR)?

Hi Guys,

I am working with the same company for last 9 years but at different designations. My employer has issued a single employment reference letter for this experience (draft given below). I read somewhere that If you have had multiple jobs within the same company try to get the company to issue you separate letters for each position to ensure they include all the items required for each position.

My question is, will it make any difference to my application? Or i request my employer to issue two separate letters. Current employment letter goes as under:


This is to certify that Mr. singhyogeshkumar S/o Mr. XXX is a full time employee with this organization from JOINING DATE to the present day. His regular working hours are from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM, five days a week (45 Hours per week).

During this period he held the following positions:

1) Title: Marketing Analyst (Period: Apr’ 12 – Till Date)
Roles & Responsibilities:
- Duty 1
- Duty 2
- Duty 3

2) Title: Research Assistant (Period: Aug’ 07 – Mar’12)
Roles & Responsibilities:
- Duty 1
- Duty 2
- Duty 3

His current gross annual salary is INR XXXXXXXX plus additional benefits like health insurance, monthly phone reimbursement etc.
During this period he interacted well with co-employees, was reliable, and showed good judgement.
If you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,

they didn't include your annual leave?

 

[CanadaWeCome]

they didn't include your annual leave?

Not required as it's part of the paid leave (and within terms of employment), and salary is accrued during those leaves hence is considered part of work experience hours (45 hrs./week). If there are any unpaid leaves then those will get deducted from the 1560 yearly hours for calculation, not otherwise.

If what you said was true then, every applicant will have to work for more that a year (to the extent of his eligible yearly leaves) to accumulate 1560 hrs. of yearly experience, which clearly isn't the case.

Hope that clarifies!

What about my original question? should i provide only one reference letter (as given in above post) or ask my employer for two separate letters.
