@ wins
with all due respect we all have jobs here and we have certain liabilities to fulfill. It is not about being busy, it is about keeping everything in line so one thing does not conflict with other. The time frame is different for different applications in different countries. And if you are satisfied, it might be ok with us but you want us to wait 26 week, made no sense to me. I am not being angry but could not agree with this thought of yous that since in Philippines people have to wait 26 weeks, we should do the same. I would strongly advise you come in here, since you don't seems to be in hurry to be in Canada and go through all the hurdles that we had to. Meaning dealing with you sponsoror, Iqama, Iqama renewal, passport, passport renewal, sponsoror not cooperating with you, not being able to get the documents on time and the dead lines that you have already given to your current employers. I wish you good luck and would expect you being a little more reasonable next time you address us.

The question you posted shows a little frustration just like us. Why don't you wait and see what happens. Your question contradicts your thoughts about us. But joking apart, the answer to your question according to my knowledge is that your application is totally dependent on the discretion of the officer, he could could do this, or that or both. We can say it is not normal, but one should except this kind of things from embassy and especially from immigration department. Good luck to your friend.
I will repost again for you what they replied to me ok?

Or you can just send any message to them then wait for the auto reply from them. If you guys more than 6 weeks from the processing that stating on the site they should reply to your email after you enquire, the embassy will reply to those more than the processing on the site, if they did not reply means 26 weeks on the AUTOMESSAGE after you send enquiry to them is true

Guys,

Many thanks for all the information here.

I got my passport back today with information coming from Aramex via SMS only to find out that my application got refused also.

I got the same refusal reason with BG in the letter with my passport.

"You were not able to demonstrate that you adequately meet the job requirements of your prospective employment."

Again for all of you who will ask regarding this issue:

- My course is related to the position and requirements applied for.
- Got more than 15 years of work experience related to this job.
- Got international certification for this specific job.

So goodluck to the rest of the applicants and I do hope and pray you get your positive response from the embassy.

All ends well :)

Hi JB, sorry to hear about the news. I also share your feelings or your thoughts on how they got to decide that we have not adequately supported the job requirement. This is a subjective question and is relative to the person evaluating it. I think it just happened that the person reviewing it didn't see the value we are going to add to the job requirement. There will more opportunities coming not only this one, good luck!

What?? They let you wait this long just to refuse your visa?! I can't believe this :( so sad.
But I am sure there is something good waiting for you. It could be that Canada is not for you at the moment.
