Mike053 said:Guys - the cases between feb 08 and nov 08 which are returned with refund because their occupation is nit in list...ARE THEY LEGALLY CONSIDERED "RETURNED" OR "REFUSED" ??
I have alreday seen the link and discussed the matter in this forum. We have to wait to see what CIC will do exactly.Mike053 said:I received a letter in March 09 that my fee would be refunded because my occupation was not in list. I applied in May'08. But I read OP6 Manual it says following:
" Note: Exceptions apply to applications received between February 27, 2008, and November 28, 2008.
Someone who meets the requirements of the Ministerial Instructions today, but did not meet them on
the application received date, should be assessed in relation to today's date and not the application
received date. For someone who met the requirements as of the application received date, but no
longer meets them, the reference point should be the application received date. The rule of thumb is
to apply the requirements in a manner that favors the client. Applicants could not self screen before
the Ministerial Instructions were made public."
Is there any chance(due to above wording) that our cases will be reconsidered??? If anybody is talking to lawyer, please ask him/her...
Lonk to OP manual http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/op/op06-eng.pdf Page 17
Yes apparently they do refund the fee in case of rejection even at the second stage. See this post for instancepmondair said:i want to enquire whether the fee is refundable if the case is rejected???

nagsea said:Hallo everybody,
My application has been declined, because my job is not included in the NOC 38 profession.
In March I was told a cheque would have been sent in few weeks.
Three months later, I have not received anything as yet.
I contacted my local embassy, but they said only the office in Nuova Scotia can help me. They can be contacted only via standard mail though....no phone number, no email address.
Has anyone of you got the fees refunded? And so, in which timeframe?
Thanks for your help
