Letter Of Recommendation Request Form Pcc: Fill & Download for Free

For me the experience was a pretty mixed one. My only mistake which makes it a negative experience was not being serious at the start and hiring a immigration consultant. Its a long story so lets start.Since high school, my parents wanted me to move abroad. I never understood the fascination , but hey, they must be right. So my first tryst with immigration was going to US for my grads. Gave my SAT, applied to colleges, got acceptance from all, chose one, go the US F1 visa, paid first sem fee, reserved my flights. Boom, i drop my plans a week before. Could never really justify spending a bomb on Under-grad education just to have a chance to move abroadBut my other cousins moved to Canada and Australia etc. while i was focussed on doing my CPA and getting into a consulting profession. My parents feared, I would never immigrate, especially to Canada (cos honestly who in their sane mind would want to immigrate to Canada - its cold, its far, doesn't really pay as much as the Asian economic powerhouses, doesn't match the quality of life of Europe). Now this was all 2012 thinking..where as a young professional I was attracted towards cities like Dubai, Hong Kong and S’Pore. So the day I cleared my CPA and moved to a different city for my job, my parents went to an immigration consultant and paid to open a file for me in November 2014. BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER!Anyways, knowing that money is paid, I relied on what the agents told me. They would send me check lists and I would respond with the required documents. I never even went on CIC website - that’s how low my interest was and I was also miffed that they pushed for Canada instead of Australia.By November 15, I arranged my transcripts and got them sent to WES. My IELTS date was in December 2015. Gave the test (while returning from a trip with friends) - some how stayed awake during listening section. Anyways gor the scores - Band 8 — and over 7.5 in each. Phew!By this time i was also able to arrange my experience letters, payslips and all that jazz.In 2016, I finally moved to Dubai, while my consultant was in India. The process got delayed as I couldn't focus on their requests and arranging documents was tougher. Anyways - the consultancy emailed me informing that my CRS score was 437 and that this was very low and I will not get an ITA. So i should apply for PNP from Saskatchewan (had to look up the spelling). And for this I will need to pay another 50–65K i guess. Anyways, I declined as I had no intention to move to Saska…..Now, the fun part.I received a congratulatory email form my consultant on January 31 2017 that I received my ITA and also the checklist of documents I needed to submit. And boy o boy did they fuck up. So in the email, was my initial correspondence from CIC where they calculated my score to 472. Yes 472 and and 437. Oh and the ITA was dated January 7 and they informed me after 20 days.Up until now, i hadn't even logged into my CIC profile. When I asked them for my login credentials (wanted to take more control of my application) - they refused. I was furious. I told them they were cheating and lying to applicants and sent out those emails to everyone, marked their management and threatened to take them to court. Finally, after big ruckus I was able to get hold of my login credentials.So, I start arranging my documents, that too after losing 20 days. Now, I run into 2 major problems which could have jeapordised my entire application.Problem 1 - Before moving to Dubai, I had renewed my passport (had less than 6 months to expiry) and left India immediately. The police verification guys came to my place and my mom like a fool kept telling them that I wasn't home. LOL.Anyways my verification couldn't be completed. What his meant was that I cannot take my Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) from the Indian consulate in Dubai.So, I come to India and went straight to my local Police Station and asked them to complete verification. They said they would need a new request from Passport office and that the file must be re-opened.So I go to meet the Regional Passport Officer, who says nothing can be done. Oh but wait. Before he shared this crucial piece of information - he asked me to come to his office daily at 8am. Then he would arrive at 11 a.m. Talk to office workers, ask me to explain the problem and then tell me to come again the next day. This went on for 4 days.In the end, he is like I must wait for the letter to be issued and was just not ready to appreciate my circumstance. But anyways this is India.On the last day, his assistant who saw me coming each day, asked me what the matter was. I explained. He laughed. Took me downstairs, took Rs 500 and brought me the stamped letter and asked me to now go to the cops.And voila, with that SCN, the police completed my verification.Problem 2- funds. Most of my savings were in equity and funds and I didnt want to break them. So, I asked, the consultants, if my parents could gift me. She said yeah sure. Just make a FD on your name and that’s fine. I asked her, if I need to show source of funds etc. etc. and they said nothing was required.But I already knew how much they bullshit. So i went online and researched and proactively got a CA certificate for the transfer and gift deed drawn as well. But I didn't tell this to the agents.4 days before my last to date to apply, the consultants said I need to show source of funds etc etc. So I ask them what documents can I show. They said show this as agricultural income. I was flabbergasted. These consultancies are such a joke. My parents have no land, I have no land - where will the agricultural income from.I wrote a nice, lengthy email telling that these guys were frauds and I will never recommend anyone for their services. And attached the documents that I had already arranged before leaving India.Anyways after all the drama - my ITA was replied to on the last day and my AOR was April 3.From then on, the crucial wait started. I had joined Whatsapp groups and would regularly check the tracker. I was active on canada-visa forums (these guys are true heroes). I wasn’t nervous as I was pretty confident it will come. Rather i wanted it to take as much time as possible as I had no intentions of leaving Dubai.Finally in October 2017, I received the Golden Email for passport request. In February 2018, I did my soft landing in Toronto and left after week.Finally, in November 2018, I got a job in Montreal and said good-bye to Dubai.My only advice to anyone reading this is that- if you’re applying under Express Entry, it is assumed you’re well-read and skilled and hence do your own application. These agents are not for educated people like us. Their services are more geared towards people from rural areas who usually use dubious ways to get PR (agriculture income).

After submitting request for transfer i didn't received any reply from the institute for a long period of time. Since our departure from the state was already scheduled and I didn't have time to wait much I met a official of the institute who after looking into the application and documents allowed me to submit form 109 before any official letter permitting transfer was issued to me.Hope this helps.
