Hai I am praveen from Palakkad.I had applied for PR in Canada in 2005 feb and got file no in april 2005 there is no reply from CHC New delhi. Let me share with you latest information from my agent and any body Interested write to me at [email protected].
It
has been noticed with concern that the processing time frame for finalization
of permanent residence (PR) Skilled Worker cases which were filed prior to
Ministerial Instructions dated 28 Feb, 2008 has increased beyond the reasonable
limits. There are no signs of processing of old cases. Canadian High Commission
is at the moment concentrating on new cases which are in process post the
Ministerial Instructions dated 26 Jun, 2010 and there is hardly any movement in
the older cases.
We, had taken up this matter with the Canadian High Commission , New
Delhi and they have informed us that they are looking at finalizing the cases
filed in mid and later half of 2003 but only those where medicals have been
issued. Canadian High Commission, therefore, is not likely to process even the
cases of 2004 and beyond in this year or in the near future. Processing time
for cases filed in 2004 and later years is, therefore, likely to go much beyond
nine years. Similar is the story at some other Visa Posts as cases are not
being processed as per committed time period in Acknowledgement Of Receipts.
we empathize with the anxiety and the apprehensions of our esteemed
clients and after consulting lawyers in Canada we have decided to take a
special initiative of taking the Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC)
authorities to Court in Canada, whereby our lawyer will commence a law suit on
behalf of each of our clients individually who are interested in getting their
cases processed in timely fashion. The Canadian lawyer that we have identified
for this job has extensive experience in representing such cases. Since your
case has been filed prior to the Ministerial Instructions, we would require
your consent authorizing the lawyer to file the case on your behalf in the
Canadian Court. You will also be required to pay a highly subsidized non
refundable fee of CAD$ 700 for the process, covering the fee for the law suit
and all other disbursements and expenses involved in the process of getting the
Law Suit filed. Please note that as per the information given by our lawyer,
Canadian High Commission will take up only those cases who opt for law suit,
not others.
Time Frame - Within thirty days of the filing of the case, CIC may be
expected to ask the Court to dismiss the action. If the Court refuses to do so
- and if enough applicants participate - it is expected CIC will offer to
settle. In case of no settlement, it would take 12 to 16 months to obtain a
decision from the Court. However, if CIC offers to settle, we would be in
settlement negotiations in about three months after the actions have been
lodged. Generally, settlement means withdrawal of the litigation without costs
in exchange for processing of the file. It would mean that files would be
assigned to an officer, reviewed and finalized within a reasonable time-frame.
Action would be initiated in case we have sufficient.
Whether we should wait for our term or go to court?Please reply.
