Hi Guys,
I need some help. I applied for my PR application from Toronto in September 2014 under Ontario PNP. On December 23, 2014 I got a email from CIC that they are returning my application package because of a missing document. They asked me to provide an updated address on the application, as I moved to a new condo recently.
Now its been close to two months, I haven't received my application package back. I have been sending regular emails to the email id and fax number provided but no replies. is there a way to contact CIO -Syndey to get a status on my application.
Thanks, Varun
Varun - I had similar but not quite the same incident. My application got returned because the reviewer did not see my birth certificate. It was right there! though. Anyways my app was returned. It had arrived at CIC on August 28th. I didn't get an email though, I just saw the application in my mail box 6 weeks after I had mailed it. If you did get such an email and yet to receive your application back, I suggest you consider these two options in order of priority
1 - Reapply via EE (if you think you'll score 400+ points. You can check you scores to see if your chances are bright.)
2 - Proactively prepare and mail-off another application under the old system (this way, you get back in queue quickly rather than waiting on CIC to determine your fate - bad idea). For this option, do not prepare online, pay using the CC form so they take the money out when your application has been processed. Now if for some reason you get AOR for the first one, cancel that card and request that no charges be approved. this will save you from paying twice. While the card is cancelled , also send an email (at same time) to CIC that you have an AOR on an application that was wrongly communicated to be returned.
3- Do not just wait! do either 1 or 2 this week
