I just received a letter from the government stating that they refused my CEC application because the code i provided isnt eligible under it. I put down 1431 as my duties came under that category but they also could be classified under 1311 which was eligible around the time that i applied. I can get a letter from my employer stating as such and listing my main duties as well. I just wanted to ask if there is anything more i should add in and if it would be enough to get them to re open my application as Accounting technician and bookkeepers is a category that they are not longer accepting people under so i dont have the option of re applying.
I also sent in my application for the OBWP around the start of November and was wondering if the refusal would mean them refusing my work permit as well or if that is just based on me getting my AOR which i received in Feb 2013.
Here is the email i received:
Dear Ayesha Fazal:
I have now completed the assessment of your application for a permanent resident visa as a member of the Canadian Experience Class and have determined that you do not meet the requirements for immigration to Canada.
According to the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations, applicants in the Canadian Experience Class are assessed on the basis of the pass/fail requirements set out in subsection R87.1(2). The assessment of these criteria determines whether a worker with Canadian experience will be able to become economically established in Canada. The criteria are:
temporary resident status during the period of work experience in Canada and any period of full time study or training,
meeting the minimum language proficiency threshold in either English or French, and
qualifying Canadian skilled work experience.
Your application was assessed based on the occupation(s) which you identified as part of your skilled work experience in Canada:
I am not satisfied that you meet the skilled work experience requirements. A foreign national is a member of the Canadian Experience Class if the person has acquired, within the 3 years before the application, at least one year of full-time work experience in one or more occupations that are listed in Skill Type O Management occupations, or Skill level A or B of the National Occupational Classification Matrix. Your work experience since September 29, 2008 with the Brock University Student Union has been as an accounting clerk, NOC 1431. The skill level associated with NOC 1431 is Level C.
Subsection 11(1) of the Act states that a foreign national must, before entering Canada, apply to an officer for a visa or for any other document required by the Regulations. The visa or document shall be issued if, following an examination, the officer is satisfied that the foreign national is not inadmissible and meets the requirements of this Act. Subsection 2(1) specifies that unless otherwise indicated, references in the Act to “this Act” include regulations made under it.
Following an examination of your application, I am not satisfied that you meet the requirements of the Act and Regulations for the reasons explained above. I am therefore refusing your application.
Thank you for the interest you have shown in Canada.
Yours sincerely,
Case Officer - JM7566
