Topic:
Quality Assurance Interview?

My PR-renewal application was selected for the Quality Assurance Program (lucky me ...) after I had to apply for reissuing a new card because of a mistake CIC made, they printed the wrong eye color on my new card.

CIC Sydney sent my new corrected card to an CIC office in Toronto and asked me to come there for an interview.

I live about 2000 kms away from Toronto, yes Ontario is quite big.

It will cost me about $2000 in air fares + hotel + wage loss ... to attend this interview.

The CIC office closest to me is in Winnipeg but that is in Manitoba, not the province where I live.

I could easily drive to Winnipeg but they say they might not be able to transfer my file to Winnipeg because it is not the province where I live.

I feel very discriminated.

Any thoughts on that?

Should they not send the card to the office that is closest to the applicant?

Regards Meeqwash
