Please request for GCMS note on the application. It should trigger some response
It triggers nothing because Global Case Management System (GCMS) notes from IRCC are often processed by clerical employees, many of whom work part-time mostly 1 year contract. Their primary role is to match your data with the information you provided, retrieve your file, and send it to you. Their temporary ID number is usually noted in the file. In most cases, the individuals processing these files are not IRCC case officers.

I never said case officers process GCMS notes. Case Officers must enter all processing notes/actions on GCMS, in fact all action/activities that occur on an app are captured on GCMS as it is a standard practice, and you think the case officer does not see that a request for the notes has been made something that will be captured in the GCMS itself.
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by Jeboy(m): 1:28pm On Dec 21, 2024
Well from my experience since I started requesting for GCMS notes (back-to-back) from August this year till date, I have NEVER seen the gcms request on the GCMS note itself, but I see things like updated information via webform/mail/ircc helpdesk etc from Applicants or even MP Calls. Still, I have to agree with @Bobomaigida that these VOs may have that visibility whenever Applicants request for their GCMS notes and they know it could have legal implications where an Applicants decides to seek redress on immigration laws applied wrongly against them.

Please family, I need urgent help, i know this is study permit forum but i feel i can still get the best advise here. I have a challenge right now on my PR application. I am an outland applicant

please i need help. I got nomination with AAIP under rural Renewal stream path way. But had issue with employer business name not being active on CAC website, it is actually struck off as we speak,during the PNP the officer noted this and asked for clarifications which I was able to proof to the officer handling my file that though the company is not active on CAC portal, but it is active physically. I sent in taxes paid, signage and contracts gotten from state government, and was given nomination on that basis. Now my employer have started the process of reactivation and has made necessary payment but the portal did not allow to pay for the last year and we are asked to go to court for court order so the process can be completed and this always takes months before judge seat. Now the court hearing date is next year June. This means the employer business name would be inactive while my application is ongoing. Please note the PNP also saw this infact then it was even struck off but I was later granted nomination after my loe and submitted documents. Now I have applied for PR and waiting for AOR. I am scared cos of employment verification, I might not have the luck I had during PNP.

Don't Know if i should inform IRCC OR wait if they will contact me just like PNP did, but my fear is, what if they did not reach out and reject my application


Please what can I do, and way forward,
how can i handle this?
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by Jeboy(m): 5:25pm On Dec 21, 2024

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by bullstriker:
Employment documents like employment letters and pay slips are not required for non-Express Entry PNP PR applications. However, you must provide your personal history, including employment history, for not just your present employment but other employment within the last 10 years; unlike Express Entry PR, the primary purpose is to record your activities within the previous 10 years and determine security checks in places you lived for more than 6 months in a row, not necessarily employment verification. Moreover, it might interest you that the processing time for non-express PNP could take more than a year, so the employer’s CAC portal should be active when IRCC opens your application if you are concerned about it.

In PR applications, as long as your application passes the completion check (R10), in other words, there is no missing information or document, it will not be refused without the Immigration Officer issuing a Procedural Fairness Letter (PFL). The PFL allows you to address the concerns of the visa officer. An application has passed the completion check whenever you receive the biometric letter. Submit your application without fear, as a tax clearance certificate and business registration are sufficient proof of active business.

Thank you for your response boss but i still have a clarification, what about eligibility, will i still be able to meet the eligibility criteria since my nomination was based on employment offer, without some years of foreign employment i would not have gotten endorsement letter from the canadian employer, whats your though on this? Also do you have idea if they are going to check for eligibility first.
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by BarbieGoldD: 9:42pm On Dec 21, 2024
Hello nairaland Family. I just got my GCMS note this afternoon, how do i tackle this issue and get it right. I submitted my employment letter and payslip but the VO said it was not submitted. I was also self sponsored, but from the note, I saw, Sponsor's source of funds poorly documented and there is limited evidence showing how financial sponsor came to accumulate their saving, which I didnt use any sponsor. Please, how do i tackle this and get it right in the second application. What are the documents needed for this. Your inputs will be highly appreciated.

Attached is my GCMS note.

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by bullstriker: 10:37pm On Dec 21, 2024
I know that 1yr of work experience is required in the occupation of your job offer. However, looking at your nomination, you will notice that the employer and restrictions on employment sections do not apply to you. To answer your question, it will not affect your eligibility as that specific requirement is for AAIP assessment.

I have replied your email.

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by bullstriker: 10:42pm On Dec 21, 2024
The VO believes the funds are for demonstration purposes and, therefore, are unavailable for your education. You can address the issue by providing
Tax clearance certificate
receipts, invoices and contracts to explain some of the transactions
Proof of business registration mentioning you as a director
A signatory letter to the business account is recommended if it is a corporate account.

Most importantly, focus on financial analysis in your SoP if there are no red flags in other aspects of your application.

I know a lot has changed since I was in the study visa category stage, and I can't say I'm up-to-date on the new rules regarding study permits and student visa cases.

Firstly, it would be advisable to speak to a representative at your school's international student center. Most schools typically have representatives who are well-versed in the current, ever-changing immigration system.

They would likely have an advisor who can provide you with a brief breakdown of what you need to do or what options are available in your case.

That said, it is essential to consult a licensed immigration consultant, as I mentioned earlier. They will be in the best position to guide you through the process.

A lot has changed, and I can't provide the best advice at this time. However, I know that being out of school for an extended period could raise concerns when applying for a post-graduate work permit after graduation.

I strongly recommend consulting a licensed immigration consultant, not relying on unverified Facebook visa agents. Use the link I sent to find a licensed professional.

I consulted with my school already but because they are a small college and they haven't been of any help. I also tried the link you sent I wasn't able to view the public register....I was thinking there would be a list of the consultant
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by Jeboy(m): 5:28am On Dec 22, 2024
Obviously you will need the service of an immigration consultant who knows his onions as IRCC is the one responsible for issueing you PGWP and to them it is not about you enrolling in a course that is in high demand in the province (as claimed) but staying out of school (default 1) for a year to work (default 2) which on its own are defaults to your study permit. These are the major and contending issue with the IRCC.

The consultant service mainly will be how to navigate the consequenece of those default by IRCC so you can have a soft landing ground. This may require you not telling the truth because it may mean you dont have the funds originally and dont deserve the study permit. Alternatively if you put out the issue of exchange rate as you said,
IRCC will frowm at the fact you didnt inform them as they already have provision for unexpected negative circumstances for destitute student which I believe you didn't follow. So just get a good consultant and hopefully you get it sorted. I also want you to have alternative plans as a earned certificate in Canada can open opportunities for you in other developed countries too. It is well.

Believe me I understand the case scenario and it's not what a 5 years experoece consultant can do.

It has to be someone who is long in the Game as a registered consultant who can use provisons and loop holes to bail him. It's an intelligent and daunting task.

Let’s clarify one thing first, so others don’t make the same mistake. Dropping out of school after just one month shows you were unprepared for the financial challenges of studying in Canada. Let’s set the exchange rate aside for now.

Secondly, you broke several rules. You cannot be out of school for more than three months, and even if you are, you must notify IRCC and are not allowed to work during that period. While some students managed to avoid consequences last year, schools have now started filing official reports, especially the University of Manitoba. Last year, this school required no tuition deposit, which was the main reason many students applied just to land in Canada, often following the advice of visa agents. You even asked the same question about this situation when you applied for your visa and again after you got it, so you were fully aware of the risks. What happened to all this advice and information? This stricter enforcement this year has made the situation even more challenging. Now, even to change schools, you must apply for a new study permit.

I know a student who did exactly what you did last year. He was out of school for even fewer months and then changed schools. However, after completing his program this year, his postgraduate work permit (PGWP) was refused. Instead of seeking proper legal advice like you doing now , a poorly informed quack individual advised him to claim asylum—a highly flawed approach to solving a PGWP rejection. His case was expedited, and just 3 months after applying for asylum he was giving very fast asylum hearing date with ircc offical present to add salt to his injury , his claim was denied because it was clearly weak. He is now on appeal, but given the current circumstances, it’s unlikely he will win.

Since you are now in a new school, the record of what you have done since arriving in Canada will significantly impact your future PGWP or PR applications. Seek professional advice immediately.l wish you all the best

There are some case that are very clear and dicey. I will also say work hard and save up in case decisions go against you then you can have something to rely on should you need to come back home as a millionaire. You can startup a viable biz or loom for one of the unpopular Europe country and start again. Don't go and spend too much (over 5k CAD) on this case and at the end if you don't succeed the money would have gone down the drain. Plan very well and have alternatives.

Let’s clarify one thing first, so others don’t make the same mistake. Dropping out of school after just one month shows you were unprepared for the financial challenges of studying in Canada. Let’s set the exchange rate aside for now.

Secondly, you broke several rules. You cannot be out of school for more than three months, and even if you are, you must notify IRCC and are not allowed to work during that period. While some students managed to avoid consequences last year, schools have now started filing official reports, especially the University of Manitoba. Last year, this school required no tuition deposit, which was the main reason many students applied just to land in Canada, often following the advice of visa agents. You even asked the same question about this situation when you applied for your visa and again after you got it, so you were fully aware of the risks. What happened to all this advice and information? This stricter enforcement this year has made the situation even more challenging. Now, even to change schools, you must apply for a new study permit.

I know a student who did exactly what you did last year. He was out of school for even fewer months and then changed schools. However, after completing his program this year, his postgraduate work permit (PGWP) was refused. Instead of seeking proper legal advice like you doing now , a poorly informed quack individual advised him to claim asylum—a highly flawed approach to solving a PGWP rejection. His case was expedited, and just 3 months after applying for asylum he was giving very fast asylum hearing date with ircc offical present to add salt to his injury , his claim was denied because it was clearly weak. He is now on appeal, but given the current circumstances, it’s unlikely he will win.

Since you are now in a new school, the record of what you have done since arriving in Canada will significantly impact your future PGWP or PR applications. Seek professional advice immediately.l wish you all the best

This provides more context to the question you're asking @Fulani14 Fulani14

I didn’t realize you already had the mindset to change schools even before arriving in Canada.

People like you are part of the reason IRCC keeps making things more difficult for other Nigerians coming after you.

You claim you’ll transfer to a higher college or university (knowing finances will be an issue), only to get the visa and switch to a no-name college.

Working while not being in school
Working for that long on a student Visa 🤦🏾‍♂️
Not informing IRCC of all the updates the time it was happening 🤦🏾‍♂️

This behavior forces IRCC to tighten rules to address people gaming the system.

You’ll likely spend more money trying to get yourself out of this mess, with no guarantee of a positive outcome.

To anyone who thinks they can game the IRCC system:

I’ve gone through the process from student > PGWP > PR > citizen, and I can tell you—you can’t game the system here.

It will catch up with you eventually.
