Please put your insights when application got refused because of missing mail
Hi Rossei and Forum Members,
I've been following you for a while and you guys have been doing a phenomenal job. Was looking for the expert to get help, thought you'd be helpful in my predicament.
I had applied for the PGP program for my parents before Jan 1st, 2014 and CIC received that on January 10, 2014. They started processing the application on March 18, 2016.
On April 14, 2016, I received their first e-mail saying that I met the requirements to sponsor my parents and they are going to forward the application to the CPC – Ottawa office for further processing.
Meanwhile, I was checking my application status now and then, and saying from ‘processing’ to ‘decision made’ (can’t remember the date exactly, may be June ’16).
I received their last mail on Jan 11, 17 which said that they are refusing my application because my parents did not respond to the RPRF issued on June 23rd 16 and Medical request issued on 21st June, 16.
Having discussed this with them, I realized that my parents did not receive any mail from CIC, nor were they able to check their email which was included in their application (which I checked for later on) and missing mail is not a common phenomenon in Bangladesh.
On my last mail, I was told I could go for an appeal to Immigration Appeal Division (IAD) within 30 days of notification, and I already did that. They acknowledged my notice of appeal on Jan 30th, 17 and waited for the hearing date. I haven’t appointed anyone (Attorney) on behalf of me yet, wondering if you could give me any advice on this matter.
