Its a joke in response to a comment someone made that he got a PPR in 30days afet6r submission because he is white, UK born and bred.
CIC is fair in its dealings and plays by the rules
Ah, okay, sorry, I didn't see that one.

Does anyone have any more reasons why they have been rejected? We need to know what we have to avoid.

As a quick summary the reasons have been so far:

- Passport scan missing or incomplete;
- Job not specified as full time and permanent employment;
- failure to upload ECA (even though it does not ask for it on the upload page);
- Missing original PCC (only translated copy was provided)

Anything else to add to the list?

Not uploading educational degree(s)/diploma(s) (even though it does ask for it on the upload page) - Recall seeing at least one such case.

Was there an actual case of a failure to upload the ECA? I think every claimed case I've seen, turned out that it wasn't the act of not uploading the ECA, but something else.
Like one case, the person didn't realize that even though they put in the ref. number for their WES report in the initial EE profile, it had to be put in again when they filled out their application after the ITA. Another was that they didn't upload the original diploma NOT that they didn't upload the ECA. And yet another, they didn't get the ECA for the correct degree they claimed.
So, it didn't seem that the problem wasn't the lack of an uploaded ECA report at all, especially since the CIC website specifically states that they don't need the ECA uploaded unless specifically asked for it and they'll only ask for it if they are unable to verify the ref number given in the application. Although, I don't think it hurts to include it.
One thing you could add, is not providing medical documents for minor children regardless of custody arrangements. I believe someone mentioned a rejection based on that.

so basically, all of the documented rejections are for not submitting the correct or required documents..

If it's the one I read, the person seemed to claim that was it, but it turned out they didn't have a full time permenant position. It was a contract position that was for 2 years and then renewable. That's not the same thing as a permenant position.
What seems to be happening is that people claim it's one thing that got them the rejection, but, when you really dig into it, it's something else. A lot of it, is that this is a new system and it can be a little confusing. Point in case is the ECAs. People kept claiming it was because they didn't upload their hard copies of their ECA reports, but it kept turning out to be something different.

Hi all, my PR application was submitted on 24 March and cancelled on 5 June due to not including traffic history from Australia (I am from Ireland but spent some years in Australia). I checked the requirement for Ireland PCC but did not check into the link for the Australian PCC which required a traffic history report. I have seen at least two other people on the forum who have been rejected for the same reason. So a heads up to check country requirements specifically for each country that you have lived in. The irony is that I already had the document (you need to provide it to get a drivers licence here, so I had got it before). I submitted a CSE with the doc on 5 June but not holding out any hope whatsoever on this.
As my work permit expired on 15 April (and I am awaiting my BOWP permit to be rejected any day now) then it is looking like I will now have to leave the country. The company I work for are going to try and get a C10 visa this week but appear to be only 50-50 hopeful on this coming through. We cannot afford to try again and wait 3-4 months without working for another PR app. So after 2.5 years working here, with a permanent job (also my spouse is here attached to my work permit, also with a permanent job), we are gearing up to be leaving shortly. It is pretty harsh that due to missing one document that we have to leave our jobs, pack up and leave. And before anyone comments back "THEY ARE THE RULES", don't bother, as I have come to know this the hard way. My only consolation is that from following all the postings on here, there are a lot of people less fortunate than I am (as I can return to Ireland or Australia), and my heart goes out to anyone who makes a similar error but has to return to their home country to a perhaps not a good place, which must be devastating after creating a new life here.
Anyways, best of luck everyone !
Oh my god, very sorry for you reading the above and thank you for posting because it may make a big difference to me. Im from Ireland as well and have the standard OZ police cert, I lived in Sydney but from reading the site all you need is the standard cert when from this state. Is this correct do you know, were you in Queensland and is that why they asked you for the traffic history?

Well for the ECA reference number, you don't need to fill it again as it transfers unto your application. All you need to do is to check to see if it has been transferred and if it hasn't then you fill it in. Because of the software bug and the relatively new system, sometimes these numbers don't transfer after you get your ITA.
Just wanted to clear that one up!

You also need to check new rules or amended rules especially just before you submit as you are bound by the rules as at date and time of submission.

For example, somebody might be refused because their PC was obtained before they relocated to another country, if they didn't know the PC rules changed slightly in April.
