How VG Immigration prepares this application

- Document checklist. We prepare a personalised checklist (reference letters in IRCC format, ECA report, language test booking, proof of funds if required).
- Application drafting. Forms, submission letters, and the legal opinion supporting your eligibility under the NSNP regulations.
- Submission & monitoring. We submit through the correct portal and monitor for additional document requests until final decision.
Common reasons applications are refused
- Wage offered below the prevailing wage for the NOC in the province.
- Reference letters that don't match IRCC's required format (job title, dates, hours, duties verbatim from the NOC profile).
- Inconsistent work history between the application, the resume, and the work permit history.
- Language test (IELTS/CELPIP/TEF/TCF) expired at the time of nomination.
