It really diaapoinment for many of us who applied post feb 2008 not meeting 38 job list requirments are being rejected. But we can expect the refund of rejected applications.
A member of this forum got rejection letter on 38 NOC list ground (applied in September 2008), where CIC states refund will be send within a few weeks.
CIC stated in their web site that consideration of application on 38 NOC list ground will be exception for those who applied between 27 Feb-28 Nov 2008. We found they did not follow it for the above case.
As this is a new rule we no one can cleary say how long it will take for the refund. Any one pls. share once you get the refund mentioning the time required in your case.

For those who have not yet seen the section is copied here.
OP 6 Federal Skilled Workers 2009-05-08 17 Applications that do not correspond to the Ministerial Instructions are not eligible for processing. In these cases, applicants will be sent a letter indicating that they are not eligible for processing and that a refund will be issued.
Note: Exceptions apply to applications received between February 27, 2008, and November 28, 2008. Someone who meets the requirements of the Ministerial Instructions today, but did not meet them on the application received date, should be assessed in relation to today's date and not the application received date. For someone who met the requirements as of the application received date, but no longer meets them, the reference point should be the application received date. The rule of thumb is to apply the requirements in a manner that favors the client. Applicants could not self screen before the Ministerial Instructions were made public.
Substituted evaluation cannot be used to overcome failure to meet the Ministerial Instructions.
