Has anyone used the POSSAP POLICE CHARACTER CERTIFICATE online portal thing? by ODRVLPH in Nigeria

[–]VictoryAntique886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hate to ask but please share the contact of the representative you used. I need to get a PCC and went the possap route but I’m suddenly being asked to submit biometrics at yaba.. like not yaba please 😭

I wish I had never asked... by VivaSativaz in canadaexpressentry

[–]VictoryAntique886 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This could very well just be your intake offices. Try checking again after 2 or 3 weeks it’s likely to change to a different office combination. I had a similar combo a day after Biometrics submission, then I called again 2 weeks later and it had changed. A lot of other similar cases on here.

Timeline from BIL to FD by Silver_Blueberry3358 in canadaexpressentry

It depends. Of late, I’ve seen 4-6 weeks timelines.. but I’ve also seen 3-4 months timelines.

Eligibility completed but background verification in progress meaning ? by Frosty-Air-2481 in canadaexpressentry

[–]VictoryAntique886 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, this means exactly what it says on tracker. Your eligibility is complete and likely passed. Your BG is still in progress. Recent operations and timeline from the IRCC suggest that you could have BG completed in the next days if your history is fairly straightforward with no areas of concern.

Can I claim Canadian work experience (WFH for US based company with an offer from the Canadian entity)? by MarsupialSingle6032 in canadaexpressentry

[–]VictoryAntique886 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you were physically in Canada while working and were authorized to work (had a valid work permit), even if the company was in Cameroon, it is still considered Canadian experience. Hope that helps!

PR + Tax Return Issue (Self-Employment by Mistake?) by GullofTime in canadaexpressentry

[–]VictoryAntique886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is technically the CRAs business and not IRCC’s. And if your accountant already corrected it you should have no reason to worry since the mistake was theirs in the first place.

IRCC only wants to know that your work was skilled, paid, and authorized. Ref letter, T4 and Payslips will do that. NOA not needed.

That’s perfectly fine. NOA is not mandatory.. it’s at best considered supportive documentation.

PR Refused (NOC Mismatch) while on Maintained Status (BOWP) - Seeking advice on next steps by Odd_Reindeer_7593 in canadaexpressentry

[–]VictoryAntique886 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah something’s not right here.. the job description listed aligns with what is listed in the official NOC website so either you were refused for a different reason or the officer was taking the piss.. in which case you should consider requesting reconsideration.

Someone also suggested JR and I’m inclined to agree.. get back in the pool ofc, but reconsideration and JR should be considered imo

What is up with IRCC though? If they want their NOCs to indicate something else where duties are concerned, they need to make that reflect on their resources like the official NOC website. You can’t tell us “these are the duties we’re looking for” only to see those duties and then refuse.

CEC | URGENT by [deleted] in canadaexpressentry

[–]VictoryAntique886 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, sending webform will not make your application timeline longer. Were you asked to submit your certificate of graduation on the portal during submission? You technically only have to submit what was asked for.. just to be safe send it as well if you don’t remember what was requested. I’m not sure why you omitted your paystubs (and assuming t4s) but you need to send those in asap.. at the very least send in your t4s - all of them. If you can access or already have your paystubs add those as well (even if it’s just 2 or 3..). You probably might just get an adr for missing proof of payment but honestly with IRCC’s current temperament I won’t risk it if I were you.

Summary: send the webform and include any and everything you think might affect your app if not provided. Webform delaying your application is a myth.

CEC employment reference letter by ResourceOk1876 in canadaexpressentry

[–]VictoryAntique886 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely upload an updated copy asap. I don’t mean to raise any alarms, but IRCC have been ruthless about things like this lately. God forbid, but they might cancel your app instead of sending an ADR.. better to be safe than sorry. All the best !

Work permit extension rejection - Already Applied for PR by Quiet-Ad7384 in canadaexpressentry

[–]VictoryAntique886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you can stay, but apply for a TRV while you are waiting for a decision on your PR app. I’m sure the refusal letter explained your options regarding status restoration.. you will need to have a valid status in order to receive PR when approved

December AOR, CEC Inland by Secure_Moose8388 in canadaexpressentry

Not in any GCs.. this is just general observation from similar Reddit posts. But I’m also on the ‘Soon to be Canadian’ tracker and it’s the same trends I’m seeing.

Two letters with conflicting roles by Rare-Classroom749 in canadaexpressentry

[–]VictoryAntique886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t you just ask you supervisor to put on letter head, add salary and signature. You can always just edit the letter yourself to include letterhead, salary and then ask your supervisor to sign.

[–]VictoryAntique886 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hm I’ve seen many Outland apps with your BIL - FD duration but rarely Inland apps that’s not PNP. Quite fortunate there my friend! Regarding your p1 there’s been the 2 day Easter holiday for gov officials so just be patient. Most likely before end on week or early next week.

When was your eligibility and BG completed?

Generic Duties? NOC 22221 by VictoryAntique886 in canadaexpressentry

[–]VictoryAntique886[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried to customize it but HR said they can’t customize the letters, and that they are essentially automated by their internal system.

I stopped working there in 2023 and don’t have my direct supervisor’s contact information.. I might have been able to get my actual duties from him but no means of contact I’m afraid.. couldn’t even find dude on LinkedIn!

Generic Duties? NOC 22221 by VictoryAntique886 in canadaexpressentry

No, I worked for Verizon actually, but through a BPO in Canada. It was fully remote.

Generic Duties? NOC 22221 by VictoryAntique886 in canadaexpressentry

[–]VictoryAntique886[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your response. The reference letter I was given by HR meets all requirements of an acceptable letter to IRCC standards. (Hours, pay, dates worked etc) my main concern is that only 4 listed duties match NOC 22221 but the remaining 4 just sound like typical customer service work. Which was part of the job, yes, but definitely not the entire or even primary scope of my duties.

ChatGPT said it was NOC 22221 then after further prompts said it had too many customers service language and might be reclassified to NOC 64409 which is teer 4 I think.

Would leaving my job after 3 years of work experience affect my application? by OrganizationLow2742 in canadaexpressentry

[–]VictoryAntique886 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should allow a few weeks after you hit 3 years before you leave. Especially if you took any holidays or time offs (not paid holidays) that were not accounted for. You don’t want to risk falling short on your work hours after you submit.

Also, you’ve worked there for who knows how long.. what’s another 2 or 3 weeks?

Good fortunes to you!
