I honesty dont think that being self-employed is an issue as some of us who are stuck in process are not self-employed.I read, seems the problem is self-employed, and yes I am self-employed also as sponsor. Maybe that's why...
wondering should I call to clarify?
Last time I talked to CIC they said they have recently sent a letter to social sevices to confirm that I have never received any social assistance! I don't really trust the call center agents anymore so she might be wrong.
But if she is right then apparently this is not done for all applicants! Maybe is a randome thing and I was lucky to be randomly chosen! lol
