Re: IEC 2015
Hi all,
I have an issue with IEC Canada that is preventing me from receiving my CAL.
I received a message from Kompass a few days ago informing me that my application had been rejected, the reason stated was: (I) 'do not hold a passport issued by the IEC country that you have chosen'.
I am from the Isle of Man (making me a British Citizen) but I selected the UK as my country of citizenship as the Isle of Man option prevented me from continuing the application, has anyone applying from the Isle of Man had this issue before or is anyone familiar with the process for those who hold an Isle of Man issued passport?
I have messaged Kompass and the London CIC Office and I am awaiting a response, I am worried that my place in the quota has already been given away and I am being left in the dark in regards to whether I need to re apply before the 2nd quota for the UK opens.
Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated!
Rich

Unfortunately, I think you're out of luck unless you can get a UK passport

FBI check help
Hi all,
I have just received my CAL for the IEC. I studied in the States between August 2012 - June 2013. I did return home between 15th December to 15th January in that time, so does that mean I wasn't there for 6 consecutive months? Or will they not accept that and require an FBI check?
Furthermore, assuming I do need to get an FBI check done, do I just submit my CIC application with a letter of explanation attached saying I'm getting one (the waiting times are months). Or do I just submit a letter of explanation without submitting the files I have now?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Re: IEC 2015
What's with the second payment seemingly requiring a credit card? I paid the first $150 using my Canadian debit card with no problems, but it isn't working for the $100 payment. Tried a couple of times now. The payment page does say "credit card" but I think the first one did too? Anyone else had this?

Re: FBI check help
Not a clue I'm afraid, but the good folks on the IEC thread will no doubt be able to advise you. I'll move your post there now, please do always put any IEC related questions there, thanks.

Re: IEC 2015
My OH was successful obtaining an IEC, If I am unsuccessful applying for myself in the next round(s) I'm planning on going over as a visitor.
Could anyone clarify if a visitors record can be issued for longer than 6 months? I know it's all at the discression of the officer on the day, but if I showed them a copy of his TWP, are they able to issue a visitor record for the same duration, if they feel they want to?
Thanks

Re: IEC 2015
We have been together 8 years have children and joint bank, bills, mortgage etc. not married yet.With regards to health coverage, would I also buy a 2 year policy for myself and kids? And would we need sufficient funds if we meet requirement for common-law or will they assume his wages will support us?
Thanks

Re: IEC 2015
Depending where you end up you will have to check if you qualify for any Provincial healthcare plan based on your OH working. We never assume as there is no guarantee he will get a job on the IEC but most do. Without adequate coverage and something goes wrong it could be a costly affair.
Thank you very much, great advice.

Re: FBI check help
Ok thank you! I'm looking into the FBI check now. Does anyone know a good place to get fingerprints done for the FBI check? Also, in terms of payment, it says to fill out the credit card form, but would anyone really feel secure sending all their card details in the post all the way to the States?

Re: IEC 2015
Has anyone had any issues when submitting a medical.
The print out sheet i uploaded and sent with the rest of my application doesnt say 'submitted' it just says 'referred' for blood tests and 'required' for blood tests and xray - all of these have been completed but last year when i got it done, the sheet said something else and I got the sheet after everything had been completed.
It is still an emedial sheet but I am worried they will be asking for another sheet. The medical place said this one would be good enough
