PNP - PR - Jan-Feb-March 2016 Applicants

[Seiryu88]

Hi, I am a March 2016 BC PNP PR applicant. I requested my GCMS notes over 4 times now. Last month, the GCMS notes revealed that my application was at PACE and the officer note is "All requirements seem to be met. Ready for final review."

But today when I received the notes, it shows that they had to reassessed my medicals because the certificate was going to expire in one month, now they are valid for one more year and that is all the update that happened in one month. This is excruciating, I am having issues with my boss because I have to go to my homeland as my dad passed and I need to take care over some loads of paperwork there too, so my boss is thinking of letting me go also because he knows the stress I am in between. I would usually not care but I feel so hand tied. I do not know what to do. I just want the PPR to come.

If I were to quit my job, how do I have to do this? Do I notify the PNP office? And maybe request for help to get an open work permit?

My condolences. Are you currently on an open work work? Is there a restriction on your PNP Nomination certificate? Is your background in processing?

Well, from my GCMS notes, they added a bunch of s.15(1). Reading through some threads, nobody knows what exactly does that mean, but apparently it has to do with the background and security check... Other than that, I have no clue. Criminality, meds, and eligibility were approved quite a while ago, and meds had to be reassessed, I am guessing, because it has been almost a year since I did them... And my file is at PACE. I read in another thread that was supposed to mean "Pass all criteria of eligibility", I am not sure how is that supposed to be a location.

If you are on an open work work and there is no restriction on your PNP Nomination certificate, you apply for Briding Open Work Permit.I doubt at your stage PNP or IRCC will check again if you are working especially on an open work permit. If you are a closed work permit, you need your current employer to pay your compliance fee in support your new work permit (closed) and hope that no one follow up on employment. You seem to be pretty close to PPR as your application has "PACE" . I am March applicant and got PPR a week ago.

Maybe you could suggest to your employer instead of laying you off, to give you unpaid leave (to cover your time in your home country). In that way, if PNP or more so IRCC were to do a final check, your employer would say you are still employed.

I would also send a case specific enquiry stating your dad has passed and you were hoping for PPR before you leave. Attach proof of death and that he is your dad (birth certificate for yourself)

When I went to our MP, his representative stated that they can only ask for quick/expedited processing in the case of death etc.So maybe you could explain to your MP that your dad died etc.. Nothing is certain with IRCC but it does not hurt to try. I did something similar but it was not a case of death.

So, if it Is a closed work permit, I am screwed? It expires on May.

I think you can apply for open work permit even if you have closed work permit with “No employment restrictions “ on PNP certificate.

It did not address whether your current work permit can be open or closed. However, normally if you had an open Work permit then your PNP nomination certificate comes with no restriction. However, I have seen some persons saying that even though they had an open work permit, they were employed in NOC C and as such given nomination with restrictions. I have never seen a case though, where a person is on a closed work permit and get a nomination with no restriction. Is this possible?

If your work permit expires May (Assuming 2018), then you should get PPR long before that unless, you are stuck in background processing.

They told me that my officer has date for end of October but that is not relevant and PPR can come any time before or after.

And his answer was same, that my background check is done, file is in Ottawa waiting for final decisions.

This is same as my answer from cic. Hi I am 24th March 2016 single applicant It is over 18 months. This Monday I have called CIC. He told me that my file is in Ottawa currently in the final processing queue awaiting finalization. They are unable to provide me a exact time frame. I know it is almost reach to get final decision but i'd got GCMS month ago it says my file is already been in Ottawa since July. i dont know what are they doing.
