So sorry to hear that! Now let's look at edu and adaptability where u seem to have a problem

1. What is the total number of years of full time edu have you had?
The VO gave you 20 based on
"A university degree of two years or more at the Bachelor's level, AND at least 14 years of full-time or full-time equivalent study"
If you have had a total of at least 15 years formal education, then VO erred and should have given u 22 points. I think VO's main focus is the total number of years you have spent in formal edu. So even if as per the credential assessment you have spent 4 years, would you have had at least a total of 15 yrs in edu?

2.If your wife had had at least 12 years of formal edu plus her diploma, you can claim 3 points
and if she did at least 14 years, you will claim 4 points.

So potentially, you are looking at extra 2 points for ur edu and 3-4 points for adaptability. So you are hanging on to extra 5-6 points if VO reassesses your case.
Remember the total number of years of formal education you and your wife have each is crucial in determining this!

If you you and your wife spent at least 16 years each in edu, then VO erred in indeed. You should have been awarded 22 points for education and 4 points for adaptability. Without doubt, they made a mistake. Time to start putting together a reconsideration request. You should indicate the number of years you have spent at each educational stage for both of you and attach certificates for both of you. This is the second time Accra had made a mistake in assessing education within the last 2 weeks. And good luck!

[wolex]

Many thanks!.Thanks for your great concern.i hv been planning to forward a reconsideration Letter to Accra as you have rightly suggested.pls,i earnestly covet ur prayers and other forum member for a favourable response. NB:in the heartbreaking mail sent to me by Accra,i also discover another File no other than the one i was given initially.what is the implication of this?And i've been checking my e-cas since that 14 march and my status still showing IN PROCESS.could it be that there is a mix up?.pls,shed more light!.Thanks and wishing every1 hapi wkd.wolex

 

[loolo]

In my opinion I think you should be awarded 22points for education, regarding your wife did you include her cerificates in your application and what is her level of education?

Loolo

I think it should be 20....seniors please confirm

 

[thejackson]

My brother,

This is sad.
I suggest you write an appeal letter immediately outlining your self assessment points
Also include your evaluation report by ICAS

Include all relevant information and document

The lord will be merciful

 

[wolex]

I say a big Amen to that.i wl definitely do that without further delay.Thank to all well wishers.we shall all laugh at last. wolex

ANY HELP GUYS:REJECTION CASE

........however we were unable to award you any points for adaptability as you did not provide conclusive proof of your relationship with your brother in Canada or that he was a resident there...............I am therefore refusing your application. Thank you for the interest you have shown in Canada.

NVO had requested for a copy of my brother's PERMANENT RESIDENT CARD which I did provide.A copy of my brother's card is in my file and therefore makes this decision is ridiculous .

I should have scored 68% but given that the visa officer refused to award me points for adaptability my final score stood at 63%. 67% is their pass marks.

Is an appeal option viable for NOC 1111 and what are the chances of success? Note that NOC 1111 is no longer in the list.

Secondly, what are the financial implications of an appeal? Can I do it myself or must I go through an Immigration lawyer?

Finally, Who do we address this appeal to or to which office is it addressed to? Can I simply do a mail to the Visa Office concerned?
