Hi... I need an advice...my application has been returned by cic last jan 3,2013...and until now i havent receive it yet, I have checked with our local post office and they dont have any records of the said package... My most concern is our nomination expiration is on april... Can we ask CIC for an extension of our letter of approval? How?
Hi Bagaholic,
I am sorry to hear about your case.
How do you know that your application got returned to you? Did you come to know it from CIO? If yes, did you ask them what was the reason for sending it back to you? Where are you located? Because, as CIO sends back the package in a regular postal service, we never know whether it's going to reach the applicant or not...in fact, this part is really strange.
Checking with local post office will not solve the problem. If they get it, they deliver it to you, it's simple. But you already did it, it's nothing wrong in doing so.
When exactly your Nomination is getting expired? I think you already made delay as it's more than two and a half months. Anyway, past is past.
I suggest you to do this. Call CIO again and ask them to send you an email saying that your application was returned on Jan 03, 2013. I don't know whether they will od it or not, but just make a try. If they send you email, send a copy of it to your Province requesting them to extend your nomination. Send the complete proof of documents to your Province what ever you can provide. Also ad a cover letter explaining the whole story.
I had completely LOST MY HOPES once upon a time....but I am pretty much done with my PR process now. I know how much pain you have right now, but don't worry...God is there. Just put your efforts sincerely, you will get success.
If your nomination gets expired somewhere at the end of April, I don't think that you have to go for your Nomination extension. Just send a fresh application to CIO IMMEDIATELY.
Good luck buddy. Please let us know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Sarayu.
