Hi, I would be grateful for the opinion of Asivad and other Seniors on this matter. After searching for a breakthrough on the issue of if a CRS score must be accurate at the time of receipt of the ITA or time of submission of E-APR I may have found the answer at the following link:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/perm/express/refuse.asp
Requirement to maintain the CRS score
An applicant’s CRS score is automatically recorded in GCMS at the time when
their ITA is issued; and
their e-APR is submitted.
At the time of the e-APR, processing officers should compare both CRS scores to determine which of the following scenarios should be applied:
If the applicant’s CRS score at the time of the e-APR is equal to or higher than the lowest-ranked score in the round of invitations, the application will not be refused under section A11.2, as long as the applicant’s supporting documentation corroborates their claims and they continue to meet the MEC for Express Entry, including the requirements of the program to which they were invited to apply.
If the applicant’s CRS score at the time of the e-APR is lower than the lowest-ranked score in the round of invitations, the application should be refused under section A11.2 for not having maintained the qualifications that would justify the ITA.
Ministerial Instructions related to the CRS may be revised periodically. Applications must be assessed under section A11.2 according to the Ministerial Instructions in force during the round of invitations to which the candidate is invited. In other words, an applicant’s CRS score at the time of the ITA and at the time of application should be calculated based on the Ministerial Instructions in place at the time of the ITA.
I take this to mean that as long as the CRS score at the time of receipt of an ITA is equal to the CRS score at the time the e-APR is submitted and both of their scores are equal to or greater than the minimum score in the Round of they were invited then they do not have to Decline their application.
Is there anyone else who reads it this way? or a Different way?
Please tell me your thoughts.
