    It’s impossible to have all the codes. I tried this before, but IRCC said they do not have a list as a document, and GCMS is so huge that they cannot extract all of them and share them with us. I have posted articles regarding some of the codes on settler.ca; here are some examples.

    Category Codes on Confirmation of Permanent Resident (COPR)

    Temporary Resident Permits (TRP) in Canada: Case Type Codes

    Case type codes on Canadian work permit documents

    Category codes on a Canadian visa counterfoil – GCMS and CAPIS codes on visa stickers

    I hope this helps.

    The best course of action for such refusals is judicial review.

    in reply to: TFW issue with 50pts LMIA #2853

    Based on the information you’ve shared, here are some key considerations for the TFW and the potential implications for her PR application and LMIA-based 50 points:

    Key Points:
    Eligibility to Leave the Job:

    The TFW’s Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP) allows her to change employers without requiring a new LMIA or employer-specific permit.
    However, the 50 points she gained via the LMIA-supported job offer are tied to the validity of her job offer until her PR application is finalized. If she leaves, she could lose these points if IRCC is notified or requests verification of her job offer status during processing.

    Documentation and Compliance:

    If the TFW has complied with all terms of the original LMIA-supported job offer and filed the PR application with accurate documents, it should remain valid. Leaving the job will not retroactively invalidate her PR application unless IRCC finds discrepancies or requires updated documentation.

    It is crucial that the TFW records all communications with the employer regarding changes in hours and pay discrepancies. This documentation could be valuable if IRCC raises questions or if any concerns about employment standards arise.

    Employer Conduct:

    The employer’s refusal to adjust the TFW’s pay despite increasing her working hours could potentially breach local employment laws. This may provide a valid justification for the TFW’s decision to leave if questioned by IRCC.

    Recommendation to Seek Advice:
    While it seems the TFW is within her rights to leave the job, consulting an immigration lawyer or contacting IRCC directly could provide further clarity and assurance regarding any potential implications for her PR application.

    Practical Next Steps:
    If she can, she may tolerate the situation until she becomes a PR.

    Yes, they may.

    It is in their best interest to file taxes ASAP and then apply. They can talk to an accountant to resolve this issue.

    Common-laws are exempt from MNI. However, they must show A39 does not apply to them (financial inadmissibility)

    Hi Asma

    Kanthasamy is a leading case in this matter, as it has many similarities. I also have reviewed some relevant court cases here: https://www.settler.ca/english/the-best-interests-of-a-child-bioc-in-canadian-immigration/

    Finally, I normally do not make an H&C case about legal precedence. I try to focus on the merits of the case.

    I hope this helps.

    Unfortunately, no, because her studies are finished and she has not applied for a work permit yet.

    1) I send them the PDF versions and use those to fill out the digital forms. Then, I ask the clients to review the digital forms for accuracy.
    2) None. You receive the AOR via email. Depending on the case, you may link the application to the APR portal later. However, this doesn’t work for sponsorship applications, and you need to continue via emails and the IRCC web form.
    3) After AOR, but as I mentioned, sponsorship applications are usually email-based.

    There is no need for such a document. However, it is not forbidden. If the sponsor is more active use the sponsor’s email.

    He has maintained status (assuming the application was complete). If you want to be safe, you may apply for a work permit online but mention he has already applied on paper. You may then withdraw the open application when the other one is approved.
