Post e-APR Process and Common Reasons for Rejection

[DelPiero07]

Can anyone please suggest me do we need to change anything in medical information sheet when reapplying with the old reports?

Nothing needs to be changed.

Hello everyone! Got a big question need your help!

I’ve applied for EE under CEC, and have already submitted my eAPR on Oct 17. And I have 50 points coming from my LMIA job offer.
Does anyone know if I can quit my LMIA job and leaving Canada for 2 months or so before the final decision being made? Quiting will result in my score goes below the ITA cut off, but I will still be able to meet all the MEC of cec. And also, I do have another work permit other than the one from LMIA. I did confirmed with cic and they said it was ok. But some people have suggested me not to quit until receiving landing paper.

what do you guys think?

Getting out of Canada temporarily will not impact your file, however, withdrawal of LMIA job will lead to CRS getting lower than ITA score which may lead to rejection. Adding a new work permit will be considered additional information as it is uploaded after ITA to cover up your LMIA job. This information regardless of meeting IRCC Criteria will require approval from an agent and if they didn't accept this being an additional document then your PR application will be rejected on the ground of not meeting Ministerial Instruction for the Round of ITA you were selected in regardless of MEC decision.

Hi Bill!

Please advise:

I am in IP1 (Your application is under process. We will inform you when we start your background checks.) I want to add my spouse with my application now. Please tell me how can I do it. My current status in EE Profile is single. Please tell me the whole process.

Thanks.

Hello everyone,
I'm new on this forum and I quite appreciate the good work being done here.
I've been at the IP2 stage for over 2 weeks now and the anxiety is just too much for me.
Please, what could possibly be going on and is it still possible to get a refusal or rejection at this stage?
Thank you

As long as you got married after submitting your e-APR you can raise a CSE in order to update your marital status. IRCC will contact you back requesting certain documents from your spouse (marriage certificate, medicals, PCC, some forms, etc).

There always remains the chance for refusal. But after ADR stage and Successful IP1 I believe you will be safe. You may hear something good in January second or third week. (My Guess).

Currently the processing is going slow due to holidays. Timelines can be different on case-to-case basis too.

The whole IP1, NA, IP2 are guidelines that are a hit or miss when it comes to reflecting the current status of the application, people in this forum takes them too seriously. If you want to know exactly where your application stands then order GCMS notes.

Thanks a lot for your reply.

Part 1 of 2: Post e-APR Process

Step 1: Completeness Test as per Regulation 10

Immigration Officer will assure that your file is complete as defined under the Regulation 10 of IRCC Act. If your file includes all details and documents required then it will be sent for Assessment.


Step 2: Assessment for Eligibility and Admissibility

This process sometimes called as A11 (For Eligibility) and A16 (For Admissibility on Medical Ground).

A11 will take some time, however; A16 will be completed within 2-3 days after your file is in Assessment Stage.

A11 (Eligibility Test)

Minimum Entry Requirement (R75)

Verification will be conducted on each of the Six Eligibility Factors (R78-83). This will only focus on assuring that the candidate attained at least 67 out of 100 points and Minimum Score needed at the time ITA was issued. Misrepresentation or Fraud check is carried later on during A40.

Education (R78)

ECA Report and Educational Documents are verified until the officer is satisfied to pass R78.

Language (R79)

Language Score is recalculated using IELTS Scores and Verification is done online using your Test Report Form Number. Once verified R79 is passed.

Work Experience (R80)

Verify Scores calculated and Work Experience Letters. Calculate Similarity of NOC Scores and verify documents. Officer will usually check email, fax, contact, website (if any), and address is written on Letterheads to verify if company physically exists and registered at the address provided. If Satisfied will pass R80.

Age (R81)

Verify the age against the official Personal Documents. Will pass R81 once satisfied.

Arranged Employment – if applicable (R82)

If applicable, will verify any job offers or call employer in Canada. Will Pass R82 after verifying offer from Employer.

Adaptability – if applicable (R83)

Verify each of the adaptability Factor and Points Claimed. Will Pass R83 after every factor is verified.

In addition, Officer will verify the Settlement Funds (R76) to ensure sufficient Funds are available. Once Satisfied will pass R76.

Although, at this stage, eligibility Test is completed your account may not be updated at this stage. Immigration Officer will approve your file and send it for A40 Test and if passed will approve your file as eligible.


A16 (Admissibility on Medical Ground)

At this stage, you will be requested for Medical Certificate or else your Upfront Medical Report will be obtained from your Panel and conclusion will be made on Health concerns.

Applications may be rejected if Health of a Person can impose a threat to Canadians health or will be expensive to treat under Public Health. This includes any health concerns with Children or anyone accompanying with the principal applicant. Good Panelist will inform you the same day regarding your X-Ray and other tests results except for Blood Test, which they usually inform within 2-3 working days if you have any health problem. Therefore, it is better to wait 2-3 working days after Upfront Medical before you apply with IRCC.

Once verified officer will pass and update your file. A11 and A16 Test are started together, however, A11 will take much more time to verify documents.

Criminal Record Verification

After A16 is passed, your first Background Check will be performed and your file will be updated. The status will change from Not Applicable to either In Progress (also referred as IP1) or Next step is to conduct Background Check (also referred as NBGC or IP1).

In this Stage, your Police certificates will be verified and assured that they meet the criteria’s of IRCC as well. In addition, they will send requests to all countries you have visited and obtain clearance from them. If these countries are quick to respond, then your file will move to Not Applicable again in few weeks’ time.


Step 3: Assessment for Misrepresentation and Fraud (A40)

This stage will start once both the A11 and A16 including Criminal Verification is completed. In this stage, your file status will change from Not Applicable to In Progress (also referred as IP2) and will be the final stage before PPR. At this stage, you may be required to take Interview or other checks may be performed. Once A40 is passed, you will receive PPR and you will be required to send Passport to your Visa Office for Stamping and receiving CoPR.


This is the general guide for understanding process only however in reality each candidate and stream may see a different kind of trends.

When you say submitting degree and transcripts, do you mean we should submit individual transcript for each semester or full academic transcript in which all year marks and credit information is mentioned?
