I am a Canadian married to a Filipina. My wife's brother applied for a visitors visa AKA Temporary Foreign Resident and was refused twice. He has an excellent job as a salesman with Spandex Corp and lots of money in the bank. I wrote an invitiation letter showing proof of giving adequate lodging, transportation to and from airport to home, health care insurance, etc and he showed his bank account, investments and credit card history to no avail. I then went to my MP and the secretary there said she would try to help by contacting the Immigration Minister. That was only two weeks ago. The secretary also told me the following:
High profile references from Doctors, Lawyers, Mayors or Government Officials, religious Leaders who can state from their personal knowledge of the applicant that they have every reason to believe that the applicant will abide by the terms and conditions of the VISA requirements and return home at the end of the permitted time.

hi BCguy, I appreciate your answer. I would like to ask if how often an applicant can reapply for a work permit? How long will I wait before I can reapply? Just incase I would reapply, will the previous refusal affect my reapplication? Thank you..
Contact me by PM,I will need to ask personal questions to study your case and No limit to how many times you apply because there is also no limit how many times they will REJECT you.There was a Filipina Nurse rejected 5 times before she followed my directions and got in
Hi BC Guy,

I need your advise too. I got refusal June 1st, stating that the VO is not convince that I would leave Canada at the end of my stay due to family ties & limited employment prospects in my country of residence. Just want to know when should I reapply & how should I overcome those rejections for the 2nd time of my application? Your help is highly appreciated. Thanks

I figured out that being qualified for the Job offered is not an assurance that an applicant will pass the Immigration. In my case, I've had a job offer and an approved LMO. I've had work experience of 1year and 5 monts in a fast food restaurant which I believed is relevant to the job being offered. I'm now positive that it was because of my status that I failed to satisfy the Immigration Officer. It was the only reason indicated as there was no question about my qualifications or other missing documents. I'm not losing hope that my second attempt would be successful. With your help I know I will make it. I'll be coming back to ask more questions. :)
What's an update to your reapplication?

Sorry to read of those whose work permits have been denied. An important thing to point out after reading the thread is that you can only apply for PNP immediately if your job offer is a SKILLED LEVEL O, A or B job. Some Provinces will let C and D skill levels apply for PNP after working 6 to 9 months or longer. Sometimes it depends on the actual NOC code. Read the specifications for the Province in which you are being offered work. Good Luck all.

Hi! I read your status & it seems you're already in Canada. How did you overcome your 1st & 2nd refusal. Please share your experience, thanks!

How can we apply for PNP if our initial application in Canada has been denied? I never been in Canada. What's the other options here. My NOC code is C. My employer is willing to apply PNP after 6months that we work with her company unfortunately my application is denied. I have multiple US visa but not visa exempt to enter Canada. If I apply single entry to come to Canada is it possible to apply work permit inside Canada? Thanks!

Memei, sorry for the confusion, my post was a general one as it appeared confusing to those reading if they thought any NOC skill level could immediately apply for PNP. You are completely correct in your post about the employer supporting your application after working for 6 months. I think if you tried to apply for a TRV after being denied the work permit, they would be concerned that you might work illegally and again deny you TRV. If you plan to reapply you will have to find more proof to convince the VO that you won't overstay and that you DO have employment prospects in your own country. Do you have a job there presently? What family and investments (property, bank accounts) can you show? You might also consider going to a good immigration lawyer to help you with writing a cover letter as lawyers have the experience to help you. All the best.

1) I AM NOT SATISFIED THAT D EMPLOYER HAS DEMONSTRATED COMPLIANCE W/ FEDERAL OR PROVINCIAL LAWS REGARDING EMPLOYMENT OR RECRUITMENT IN D PROVINCE HERE U WILL B WORKING
2) D INFORMATION U PROVIDED @ UR INTERVIEW DID NOT ALLAY MY CONCERNS THAT U HAVE CONCEALLED AN UNAUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE & THAT U PAID ILLEGAL PLACEMENT FEES TO THIS REPRESENTATIVE.
I understand that I hd link with UAE based agency and I paid placement fees, because agency find me employer in Canada. UAE agency ve another agency in Canada who find me employer .but I never keep in touch between employer and me. As well this Canada agency. Now I saw same employer posting job vacancy in job bank and I forward my cv to this employer mail. Employer surprise and sucked to see my resume and contact me what happen how visa cancelled .and now employer showing interest to me hiring again through direct hire not through agency employer wants to apply LMO for me and sending to me directly now my question is
if I apply work permit with same employer in abudhabi visa office what is the chances to approve work permit ?
But abudhabi VO told me if I apply genuine ill get 1st priority to approve visa
and one more question my visa was already cancelled in system in Canadian border and embassy but in my passport still not cancel .and embassy also not requesting for cancelled what can I do/ I still can apply another application for work permit ?

If your prospective employer is still willing to hire you after s/he has started the recruitment efforts again and a new LMO is applied in your favour, attach a cover letter explaining what happened. If you paid an agency then let them sign the authorization but if you're doing it yourself this time around indicate so on your cover letter. The officers are just cautious making sure there is a genuine employer/job and not have you land in Canada without a genuine employer. My two cents :)
