Wow, you were rejected despite all your decorations? Can be a visa issue, don't know what else to blame... Cheer up!!!

Maybe it's because of the visa issue. Don't be discouraged.

No, I still don't... Every experience is unique, and extrapolating someone's one onto yourself isn't good idea... OK, if we put scores, why don't we then show photos or put our true names? Ages? You want some privacy and also pretend to be original, don't you? That's my point... And, by the way, we are still guessing...

You should not do that... I would be very surprised if these "appeal/re-battle" messages would be even read...

They don't need to give you a reason for rejection...It all depends on competition and remember many of these programs that sponsor visas prefer not to if they don't have to, especially with the labour department getting increasingly strict...therefore many programs that sponser visas only do it if there aren't enough qualified citizens/permanent residents applying...

I guess applying as a couple to a small program was a mistake...in addition to the usual reasons they have for rejecting you this counts as well I think. The wait restarts!

I have completed my residency from my home country... pg4 (on 2009 Match Support thread) refers to where I have my detailed creds and will be posting all my interview calls and experiences (or lack of them! ). I had asked people to post their detailed creds and interview experiences on this same thread and then cross reference it in their signatures...but I guess nobody's willing to take the trouble and the thread I started for this got lost somewhere here.
