This Week’s Success Story: Visitor Visa Application Approved After Refusal

Posted by Fabiola Arevalo - Bellissimo Law Group PC

A client from the Philippines approached us to handle his visitor visa application after it was refused back in 2016 due to various reasons. We started the application by making an Access to Information request for the refused file from Immigration Refugee and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). We did extensive research on our client’s background, his relatives in Canada and his country of origin. Our submission was comprehensive and addressed the previous issues in his refused application in a clear format. We submitted the application and within a couple of weeks, our client received the visitor visa. Both himself and his family were overjoyed, as he now will be able to visit his children and sister in Canada.
