Re: IEC 2015
What is a good way to tell somebody that I am no longer moving to Canada? I don't want to be so direct to the point where the person thinks that I changed my mind, I want to say it in a way where Canadian government didn't accept my visa request.
Should I just say that my visa request was rejected? If the person asks me why, what should I say?

But have you had a visa application rejected? If so, then just say that and give them the reason why if asked.
If you haven't had a visa rejection, then why lie about it? Just tell the truth.

If this is in regards to a relationship then I would be honest and explain the person that you don't want to move out. I would much rather someone be honest with me no matter how much it hurts then try and sugar coat it with a lie

Re: IEC 2015
Hey guys, these new rule changes have me slightly confused because of my current situation. Let me illustrate this:
So I'd like to clarify. Can I apply for my second IEC in Canada before my current one ends (May 2015) and have the rule changes altered any part of this process?
- I'm currently on a working holiday through IEC, ending May 2015.
- My plan was to apply for my second (and last) IEC when it opened this year, while still in Canada
- The reason for this being originally I'd hoped to be married and securing PR status by now, but that hasn't been able to happen yet so one more year on IEC IEC is my backup
- The new rules say if you've participated once before 2015 you can apply again. However, I'm still currently on my first IEC during 2015.
So I'd like to clarify. Can I apply for my second IEC in Canada before my current one ends (May 2015) and have the rule changes altered any part of this process?

Re: IEC 2015
Is there a resource on this website/forum that breaks down any important differences between applying from within Canada vs applying from the UK?
My initial concerns would be regarding the police certificate (another British one or something from Canada?) and later concern would be where I actually acquire the new work permit (assumedly not at the airport this time?).

To activate the permit, you need to cross the border again. You can do this by flying somewhere international and back in, or drive/take a bus/walk/boat across the US border, and return. Whichever border crossing you take, activation is exactly as it was last time - have Letter of Introduction, passport, proof of insurance and funds with you.

scroll down to the "Applicant not accompanied by dependants" part

It looks like the days when spouse gets OWP if IEC holder works in skilled occupation are over...
Under the IEC program requirements, applicants may not list a dependant or dependants (i.e., spouse or common-law partner and children) on their application to benefit from the IEC program. This means that an applicant and their family members may not benefit from the IEC program as a family unit under one IEC application. However, this does not prevent dependant(s) from submitting their own individual request to come to Canada (e.g., spouse may submit their own application to benefit from the IEC program).
CIC has no specific policy prohibiting spouses and dependants of IEC participants from joining them in Canada. However, the spouse and dependant(s) must be admissible to Canada based on their own merits. Family members will have to answer the Come to Canada Wizard questions for themselves and have their own MyCIC account. The spouse or common-law partner of an IEC participant is not eligible to obtain an open work permit by virtue of the participant's IEC application. The Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) exemption code C41 applies only to spouses and common-law partners of workers under CIC’s Temporary Foreign Worker Program (National Occupational Classification [NOC] Levels 0, A & B).
Likewise, the children of an IEC participant are not eligible to obtain a study permit by virtue of the participant’s IEC application. They must submit their own application for a study permit if they intend to study in Canada.
For more information about eligibility requirements such as passport validity, health care insurance, and sufficient financial resources, consult Apply—International Experience Canada.
