7月開始的Quality Assurance給已經或者即將拿到安省提名的碩士畢業生蒙上一層陰影。
移民方面,幾乎所有已經遞到聯邦申請人都收到一封這樣的請求信:
The job offer from your prospective employer indicating your occupation title and wage for the full-time, permanent position being offered.
A copy of your curriculum vitae.
If you are currently employed in Canada, provide proof of employment (e.g., Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) Notice of Assessment and CRA T4 Statement of Remuneration Paid).
Proof of membership and/or registration in regulated occupations if you intend to work in an occupation that requires registration or certification in Ontario.
Reference letters showing at least 2 years of experience in the previous 5 years for your intended occupation for both work done outside or inside of Canada.
Proof of education including transcripts.
甚至已經有人到了要求寄護照的階段,但是護照又被退回,要求補這麼一些材料。
對這部分進行調檔後,顯示”PV2 on HOLD”,PV2是省提名移民的代號,顯然這部分申請人被暫停審理,等待進一步的指示。
而工簽方面,這部分人申請延長工簽也除了問題,往年可以直接用安省要求聯邦給這部分申請人延長工簽的推薦信續簽,而現在卻遲遲不下來。打電話過去被告知工簽申請也被on hold,現在是implied status,可以繼續工作直到作出決定。
最近post在安省PNP的Facebook上的一篇留言,也被他們選擇性忽略了:
Dear Opportunities Ontario, my friends and I were nominated by your program in April, may and June 2014. It has been brought to our attention that the Quality Assurance Exercise deployed by CIC in CIO Sydney might affected the processing of PR applications under our program. Many of my friends, who submitted their applications in May, still got no response (and no file number) from the CIO. Usually CIO starts to process PNP applications within 6-8 weeks, yet it has already been more than three months. More over, a friend of mine, who applied for Open Work Permit with Ontario PN certificate and letter, recently got his file “on hold” by the CIC. The advisor from CIC call centre even advised him that the Ontario PN Program is currently put on hold internally and nothing will be processed until further instruction.
Would you please kindly report this issue to relevant authority in Provincial level? Is there anything we can do to better facilitate the CIC in processing our applications? Thank you very much.
如此撲朔迷離,而聯邦和安省都對此事諱莫如深,剩下的只有等待和祈禱了。
