This Week’s Success Story: A Successful Outcome Achieved For A Spousal Sponsorship Appeal

We were recently successful at challenging a Spousal Sponsorship refusal alleging that the marriage was not genuine and that it was entered into primarily for immigration purposes. The Applicant had lived in the United States without status for nearly a decade and immigration Canada suspected his motivation for marriage was to acquire permanent resident status in Canada. In challenging the legal validity of the decision, we provided comprehensive evidence documenting the genuine nature of the relationship. We also dedicated adequate resources to witness preparation which in conjunction with the documentary evidence persuaded the IAD that the marriage was genuine.
