Reason of refusal : language test is missing ( it believed I submitted it but it is not uploaded cause I called Irrcc after the refusal and confirmed that it is not the file.
Reconsideration: may 2026
Refusal: June 27
Here is joined here the officer refusal letter.
This letter is in response to your request for reconsideration of your application number……
After considering your request for reconsideration and based on the information provided, I have determined that there are not sufficient grounds to justify reconsidering the decision. After reviewing the additional submissions, the original decision regarding your application remains unchanged.
For Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) applications submitted on or after November 1, 2024, applicants must demonstrate that they have achieved the minimum Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB) level in English or French for each of the four language abilities, as follows:
* A minimum level of CLB 7 in English or NCLC 7 in French is required for:
* all graduates of degree programs (bachelor’s, master’s, or doctoral degrees);
* graduates of university programs that do not lead to a degree (bachelor’s, master’s, or doctorate).
* A minimum level of CLB 5 in English or NCLC 5 in French is required for:
* graduates of any other college program or non-university program that does not lead to a bachelor’s, master’s, or doctoral degree.
Based on the information you provided, it has been determined that you do not meet the required language criteria. Your application is therefore refused.
If you have different or additional information, you may submit a new application, including the applicable fees.
