Hi
My husband and I were denied PR for the 3rd time based on them deeming my husband as self-employed. In our first application in 2010, it was a valid refusal as he was taking dividends instead of a salary in order to grow the business. After the denial he gave up 50% of the company, had contracts drawn up with the other partner/director and went on salary to contribute CPP and EI.
Our latest refusal was "preapproved" pending medicals on 25th May 2014 but then 26th June 2014, we received a declined letter based on the lack of evidence proving he is an employee.
We provided a letter of employment and T4s as requested in the application. Has they requested further information and maybe we should have included regardless, we could provide them with contracts and letters from the other director.
Has anyone had any experience with the self-employed/empoyee issue and also has anyone heard of a request for medicals followed by a refusal based on something else. From all the lawyers and consultants I've spoken with they all state that medical requests are the final stage meaning everything else has been approved?
Our work visas expire at the end of this month so we are panicking now due to timescales and our extention application may likely be declined due to the PR being declined. Any advice would be extremely grateful! TIA
