What a situation you're in Tell them the truth, appeal to their sense of mercy, pray and have faith! Tell them as it is and say you are willing to accept whatever they deemed fit given the situation. Tell them that you were clearly a double agent & give evidence. Coy A was a part time engagement while coy B was a permanent full time job. Say you had to indicate coy B now because of PR app requirements (although they weren't willing to give ref letter initially).

I wish to seek seniors input to my application basis the recent update which I got for my application.

My AOR was 14th December 2019 and I have basically waited for almost one year for a decision to be made. In between, I have order 2 GCMS notes, ordered the 3rd last week and I was just waiting for a response when this morning I got the procedural fairness letter.

What was highlighted is below;

Specifically, In your current application you declared that you had worked as Territory Pre-Sales Manager for company A Ltd from February 2016 to August 2017. You also provided a Confirmation of Employment Letter from the Human Capital Manager of Coy A, dated August 06 2019, which indicated that you had worked Territory Pre-Sales Manager Coy A Nigeria Ltd from February 2016 to August 2017.

However, in your temporary resident visa applications, S******* (submitted August 01, 2016) and S******(submitted March 09, 2017), you indicated that you were employed during that same period as a Procurement Officer for company B from February 2016. Given these discrepancies, I am concerned that you have not provided a truthful description of your employment activities between 2016 and 2017.

Permit me to give a little background to my work life;

I finished my masters from the United Kingdom and returned to Nigeria in 2015 December. My family owns an educational institution in Nigeria where I started some small time employment as a procurement officer by February 2016. Also, before I returned from the United Kingdom, I had started an interview process with another company as a Territory Sales Manager.

By January 2016, I was just concluding with Coy A and had my last interview that January. By February, I was offered an employment on probation for 6 months. However, I also decided to hone my skills in procurement with the family owned education institution in February. The job of a procurement officer was to sieve through quotations sent in by suppliers and pass on to the manager my recommendations. This was done mostly through emails as I had already started working with coy A. So it wasn't that tasking and really no one was expecting much from me, it was an experience for myself and to keep my brain active.

I applied to Canada to do an MBA in August 2016 and while filling my application, under work experience, I filled the procurement officer which I was doing at the educational institution. This is because when I asked for a reference letter from coy A, I was turned down as I had not completed my probation period. Besides, I needed just one reference letter and it was easier to get the letter from the educational institution being family owned than from Coy A. Please note, by this time, I had gathered experience in both procurement and Sales.

I stopped working for the educational institution by 2017 to focus fully on my sales career, especially as I had started thriving and receiving awards from there, I was also confirmed after the probationary period and had decided on focusing fully on my sales career. I reapplied for the study visa in March but did not change the work experience. I was denied based on POF.

FF to 2019, while filling my express entry profile, I claimed points for the territory sales manager from 2016 to 2017 as this is the NOC which I have over 3 years works experience. IRCC has sent an email to coy A and have also gotten a response. However, they have sent a procedural fairness letter citing possible misrepresentation of my work experience during that period. I have the offer letter from coy A, email correspondence before I got the job, when I started. I can request for the email turning down the reference letter request I made for reference to school, I have letters from when I was congratulated for a job well done, I have my signed letter of acceptance of the offer etc.

I need advise on if these can be presented as I have heard that a procedural fairness letter almost always precedes a refusal even after all evidence is submitted. I have been on this process for over a year and a lot of funds have gone into this.

I did raise a letter of explanation 1st week of October after seeing the update from the visa officer on my last GCMS note. Not sure if this got to them. My head is all done in at this point because of the time I have spent and the funds which have gone in. And it is sad that all the research I have done, I have not seen a positive after this PFL.

I think the biggest mistake was not including the family institution I worked in personal history, so it seems conflicting or like I was deliberately hiding something. I have contacted immigration lawyers but the rates for consultation only are pressing my neck.

I don't mind being bashed, but I really will like to have objective responses please.

Thank you as I anticipate your advise.

I am also a PNP applicant,(Ontario),
Seems like most Ontario PNP applicatants get Sydney as their VO.

I got my PPR mail on October 15 and my AOR was Nov 12,2019.
Intensify your prayers ,you will get your mail before the month is over by God's grace.

That's quite encouraging. thanks fam!

Mayour99:


Are you a pnp applicant?

Yes I am

Yemmyjimmy:

Your VO is Sydney, Nova Scotia (which is also know as the centralized intake office).
That is your primary office while Ottawa is your secondary office.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm quite surprised it's Sydney. They have been actively dishing out PPR to people with AOR in 2020. My AOR is 30-dec-2019. I was convinced it my VO has to be accra

Hello guys, my GCMS note says primary office is "centralized intake office" secondary office is "CPC-Ottawa". Which of these would be my VO?
