Our Recent Immigration Success Stories

Family Reunited After Medical Inadmissibility Obstacle!

We represented a family who sponsored their parents to permanently reunite in Canada. Citizenship and Immigration Canada was of the opinion that one of the Applicants was medically inadmissible. Their findings were incorrect, and only after a difficult battle and the presentation of two separate Mitigation Plans providing evidence that no excessive demand would result in Canada, the family will finally be reunited in Canada after 7 long years.

Permanent Resident Status Secured!

We were recently successfully in securing permanent resident status for a spouse of a Canadian citizen who had previously been refused admission into Canada to reunite with her spouse on more than one occasion and had a history that included a criminal conviction, although not serious.

H&C Approval Ends Hardship For Couple

A couple, both out of status for several years in Canada, approached us for assistance with their options for permanent residence.  Our office assisted the couple to submit applications under the Humanitarian and Compassionate Grounds (H&C) category.  We prepared strong submissions highlighting the disproportionate hardship the couple would face if they returned to their respective birth countries.  Additionally, that it was in the best interest of their Canadian born children for the couple to remain in Canada.

Just over three months after submission, we received first stage approval on the couple’s H&C application.  Our clients have since completed their medical and criminal checks and have now received their permanent residence confirmation dates.

Couple Reunited After Successful Sponsorship Application!

An application for permanent resident status, based on a spousal sponsorship, was approved within 6 months! The application was sent to Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) in the middle of July 2015 and by the end of November 2015 the visa was ready. At the time of filing the application, for this particular office, the processing time was 28 months. The case faced challenges, as the sponsor was a young person who was in the process of completing her schooling and searching for employment. Concerns were raised by the visa office regarding the financial situation of the sponsor and her ability to fulfill her sponsorship obligations. The application was approved after additional submissions were made, addressing the financial admissibility. We are very pleased that this young couple will be reunited in Canada very soon.
